Kidnapping.
Capturing a person against their will without due process is called kidnapping.
Transporting them to another country without due process is called human trafficking.
A squalid extrajudicial prison for people found guilty of no crime is called a concentration camp.

stop calling things deportation just because they call it deportation.
-You cannot legally deport people without due process.
-You cannot legally deport citizens.
-They are defining down deportation to break the law.

Take Husband’s Name? No Vote For You!
GOP “Save" act is an attack on women.
It’s men-only voting like way back when.
Birth name must match in this awful act.
Money can fix your name. That’s a poll tax.

What are the odds that enough Supreme Court Justices believe we shouldn't put people in foreign torture prisons without due process & especially when the government misrepresents the evidence it has in briefs it submits to the Court?

West Coast numbers are coming in, and estimates have now surpassed 5 million. People are still pouring into the streets—nearly 2% of the American population is rising up. America, we are so proud of you. You did it.

Please share!!! This is getting ridiculous—they just can’t accept a loss. Please help spread the word to North Carolina. The North Carolina Court of Appeals ruled in a 2-1 decision that over 60,000 votes cast in last year’s closely contested state Supreme Court race must be verified and recounted.

The SAVE Act is a poll tax.
Over 69 million women would have to get new IDs to vote under the SAVE Act—all of which, except military IDs, cost money.
As @mcclellan.house.gov explained, whether it’s $1,000 or 1￠, no one should have to pay to vote.
