Trump’s invocation of the Alien Enemies Act is a profound risk to everyone's civil liberties. By invoking the AEA and insisting migrants are part of an “invasion,” POTUS is:

❌ abusing power against Congress’s intent
❌ seeking more unchecked authority

Today Donald Trump attacked me by name in a speech at the Department of Justice. Of course I am worried, but courage comes from acting in spite of being worried. I have made my choice: I will continue to speak out, I will continue to litigate, I will continue to stand tall.

I will never bow down.
