What Is #DueProcess ?
In the first months of his administration, #Trump repeatedly threatened due process, a fundamental principle enshrined in the US #Constitution. His attacks have spanned from the arbitrary use of the #AlienEnemiesAct to #deport legal residents, to the unlawful detention of students.
For years due process has protected us from such unfair, unlawful & unequal treatment. But what is due process? Why do we all have a stake in defending it?

#Trump already has the weight of the #ExecutiveBranch behind his efforts to strip funding from top #universities, #deport millions of unauthorized #immigrants & pressure #ForeignGovernments to change their economic policies.
With the sprawling bill that passed through the #House on Thurs, #Republicans are also preparing to enlist the #TaxCode as another tool against Trump’s political foes.

A #DHS ofcl said on Wed that the #US is seeking to #deport 8 #immigrants convicted of serious crimes, but declined to confirm an allegation raised in federal court that they were bound for #SouthSudan.
US Dist Judge Brian Murphy on Tues ordered the #Trump admin to not let a group of immigrants being flown to South Sudan to leave the custody of #US #immigration authorities, after saying they appeared to have been deported in violation of a #CourtOrder.

The arrest of the judge marked an escalation of the #Trump admin’s warnings that local ofcls must not impede federal efforts to #deport millions of undocumented #immigrants. AG #PamBondi & other admin ofcls have defended the case against Judge #Dugan.
“It doesn’t matter what line of work you are in, if you break the #law, we will follow the *facts* & we will prosecute you,” Bondi said in a video. [unless you’re effing Donald Trump]

#Trump, a [purely self-interested] #Republican, is also trying to #deport some pro-Palestinian #international #students at #US #schools, saying their presence could *harm* US #ForeignPolicy interests [utter crap].
The #protesters in the library also demanded the release of #MahmoudKhalil, a #Palestinian activist & #Columbia graduate student who remains in a Louisiana immigrant #jail after he was among the first to be #arrested for #deportation.
