US EditionMaking our rights disappear: The authoritarian war on due process
- The Trump administration utilized executive orders and proclamations, declaring national emergencies, which some argue circumvented constitutional norms and due process for both legal and illegal immigrants.
- This approach involved mass roundups, arrests, and deportations, with the initial focus on members of the Venezuelan gang Tren de Aragua, sometimes based on circumstantial evidence like common tattoos.
- Some legal permanent residents without criminal records were targeted, with government lawyers arguing that the absence of a criminal record was, paradoxically, a cause for concern.
- These actions have extended to include college students, scientists, and doctors accused of threatening national security for participating in anti-war protests related to the Israeli-Hamas war and expressing sympathy for Palestinians.
- Lawyers and authors, like John W. Whitehead, warned that these policies, including extraordinary rendition and preemptive arrests, risked government overreach, potentially leading to a situation where basic rights are not respected and freedoms are surrendered for a false sense of security.
