There was a time when perpetrating extrajudicial, disproportionately violent unconstitutional kidnappings of civilians would land you in hot water.

You know, the good 'ole days. Imperfect as it was, the US had standards—illegal, immoral actions were met with consequences.

When the President of the United States says he doesn’t know if he should uphold the Constitution, it should be a searing red line for every American.

If you let him ignore ANY aspect of the Constitution you embolden him to ignore more of it, including the parts that secure YOUR freedoms & rights.
