Trump administration seeking to suspend constitutional rights during outbreak 😱
    #26549654 - 03/21/20 08:12 PM (3 years, 10 months ago)

This. Is. Nuts

https://www.rollingstone.com/politics/politics-news/doj-suspend-constitutional-rights-coronavirus-970935/

Quote:

The Trump Department of Justice has asked Congress to craft legislation allowing chief judges to indefinitely hold people without trial and suspend other constitutionally-protected rights during coronavirus and other emergencies, according to a report by Politico’s Betsy Woodruff Swan.
While the asks from the Department of Justice will likely not come to fruition with a Democratically-controlled House of Representatives, they demonstrate how much this White House has a frightening disregard for rights enumerated in the Constitution.
The DOJ has requested Congress allow any chief judge of a district court to pause court proceedings “whenever the district court is fully or partially closed by virtue of any natural disaster, civil disobedience, or other emergency situation,” according to draft language obtained by Politico. This would be applicable to “any statutes or rules of procedure otherwise affecting pre-arrest, post-arrest, pre-trial, trial, and post-trial procedures in criminal and juvenile proceedings and all civil processes and proceedings.” They justify this by saying currently judges can pause judicial proceedings in an emergency but that new legislation would allow them to apply it “in a consistent manner.”

What's crazy is I was just talking about this hypothetical situation with a co-worker the other day, one in which people are taken away and confined by the government, at unknown locations, for an undetermined amount of time because of the pandemic. 


To be fair, I have read a few dystopian novels.  I also know the Trump Administration pisses on laws all the time, so I put two and two together. But remember folks, the "Democrats want your guns". Also, "2nd Amendment! Constitution! NASCAR! Standing for the pledge!"  God bless 'Murica!  God bless Trump! 😂😂😂

Congress does have the authority to do this.

The government is doing all this shit because of doctors and science.

That is probably the 4th time in 300 years the government has listened to science.

Don't fuck it up...

I hope not.  But remember what they did to American citizens of Japanese descent during WWII.  I don't put anything past government.

Who knows what's actually going on. I think we're making a big mistake shutting down all of these businesses. If I was the president I would have just shipped off all the old people to some island somewhere until we got a vaccine. If those old people didn't want to go to the island and didn't care about leaving this world then that's their choice. This is seriously ridiculous.
