Thinks habeas corpus is a person rather than a legal
concept.
Donald Trump was asked yesterday by a reporter, are you
still thinking about suspending habeas corpus?
And Trump goes, Who?
And it is very obvious Trump has no idea what
habeas corpus is.
He thinks he's being asked about suspending a person.
Thank you, Sir Alm.
I also have uh two questions for you, if I
may.
Um, have you given any more thought to possibly suspending
habeas corpus to not only deal with these insurrectionists across
the nation, but also to continue rapidly deporting illegal alias.
Yeah, is it been is suspending who?
Uh habeas corpus.
So I don't know.
I'd I'd rather leave that to Christy.
What do you think?
No, sir.
I haven't been a part of any discussions on that.
Who are you asking me about?
I'd rather leave that to Christy.
Now, the ironic thing, the the funny thing about leaving
that to Christy is that Christy Noam has no idea
what habeas corpus is.
Remember this viral moment in May when Senator Maggie Hassan
asked her, What is habeas corpus?
And she goes, It means that Trump can deport people.
So Secretary Noam, what is habeas corpus?
Well, habeas corpus is a constitutional right that the president
has to be able to remove people from this country
and suspend their rights.
Excuse me.
That's that's incorrect.
Uh excuse me.
Habeas corpus is the legal principle that requires that the
government provide a public reason for detaining and imprisoning people.
If not for that protection, the government could simply arrest
people, including American citizens, and hold them indefinitely for nothing.
So uh bad idea to go from Trump to Christy
Noam on habeas corpus because she has no idea what
it is either.
