Alexander Hamilton wrote about how important the writ of habeas corpus is to preserving a country of limited government and broad personal liberty in The Federalist No. 84:

“[T]he practice of arbitrary imprisonments, have been, in all ages, the favorite and most formidable instruments of tyranny.

"When senior leaders disparage legal oversight, sideline JAG officers, impede the ability of the press to report, or treat accountability as the enemy, they do more than risk unlawful action. They weaken the moral foundation that makes our military credible in the eyes of the American people...
@markhertling.bsky.social warns the gravest threat to the U.S. military is the erosion of the values that keep our forces lawful and legitimate. He implores Congress to investigate whether unlawful orders were issued in the Caribbean, and hold every official to account.

Reminder that Starbucks’ CEO made 6,666x more than the company's median employee in 2024.

This was the widest CEO-to-Worker pay gap in the entire S&P 500.

And we're supposed to believe Starbucks can't afford to bargain a fair contract with its unionized workers?

If immigration judges are neutral and independent as due process requires, then they must be independent from the Executive Branch.

We must move immigration judges from Article II to Article I to provide a check on a lawless administration like this one.

There are 10 – 15 million trans women worldwide, 81,500 Olympians since trans women have been openly allowed to compete as women, and yet not a single Olympic medal of any colour has been won by a trans woman in 11 Olympic Games.

The Defense Department Law of War Manual sec 18.3.2.1

“The requirement to refuse to comply with orders to commit law of war violations applies to orders to commit conduct that is clearly illegal… for example, orders to fire upon the shipwrecked would be clearly illegal.”

Around 70% of the U.S. economy depends on consumer spending. As wealth concentrates in the richest 10%, the rest of America can’t afford to buy enough to keep the economy running. This is a huge problem — and even America’s most powerful CEOs are starting to sound the alarm.

"If the U.S. military operation is not an armed conflict of any kind, these orders to kill helpless civilians clinging to the wreckage of a vessel our military destroyed would subject everyone from SECDEF down to the individual who pulled the trigger to prosecution under U.S. law for murder."
Here are US military lawyers stating clearly that Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth's "kill everybody" orders are either (1) war crimes or (2) murder.

Either way, expect prosecutions in the future.

This is also true about RFK Junior
Remember, too, that Hegseth would have been rejected if a single additional Republican senator — or, JD Vance — had joined Sen. Collins, McConnell, and Murkowski in voting no with the Democrats. See: www.senate.gov/legislative/...

The problem for military personnel is that by the time an operational order reaches them, they assume that someone higher up must have signed off on it. (Which is correct.)

Instead of carping about "the military," ask where General Caine and the joint chiefs are.
Spare us all the "few bad apples" line when no member of the armed forces has been accused of refusing to murder civilians. Not. One.

Honor and dishonor are about what people actually do.

Assuming every boat Trump and Hegseth blew up contained the amount of drugs they claim, Hernandez was responsible for bringing more drugs into the US than every one of them had combined. By far. And yet, Trump murders 80+ people and counting while pardoning the narco kingpin.
