Supporting due process is a crime, according to Trump admin

Donald Trump's counterterrorism czar Sebastian Gorka claims Americans who don't support the president's anti-immigration agenda and deportations policy are "on the side of the terrorists," and suggested advocates for Kilmar Abrego Garcia, a Salvadoran father living in Maryland who was mistakenly deported to a brutal prison in his home country, could be prosecuted for "aiding and abetting."

Comments

... Americans who don't support the president's anti-immigration agenda and deportations policy are "on the side of the terrorists,"...

Americans may support the agenda and policy, but may not support the lack of due process Pres Trump put into place to implement that policy.

That's a key distinction, imo.

Perhaps that is why Pres Trump's approval on immigration seems to be dropping since it's early March peak?

I already know how the leftists will react to this, but I'd really like to see what the people who used to claim to be independent/libertarian/conservative have to say about it. The Patriot Acts were just a warmup compared to this BS.

It's "leftist" to support the consitution of one's country, apparently

By calling it brazenly anti-Constitution and anti-American?

People that aided and abetted the illegal invasion - from Dems in sanctuary cities, to NGOs enticing them to come, to judges making ridiculous rulings should be charged and spend a few years in cages. This invasion was a crime - possibly the biggest in US history.
