[QUOTE="Frank Underwood, post: 422672, member: 35"] The Trump administration’s aggressive deportation practices, whether sending alleged gang members to a notorious El Salvadoran prison or rounding up foreign students for opposing Israel’s war in Gaza, have led many pundits and others to raise the alarm about a Constitutional crisis and the evisceration of due process. Their concern is certainly valid, but this crisis has been decades in the making. It was kicked into overdrive after 9/11 with the introduction of the so-called "Patriot Act," which trampled on civil liberties. Incidentally, Joe Biden bragged about writing the Patriot Act in 1994. It was defeated at that time, but that changed during the "war on terror." Our Constitutional crisis continued into the Presidency of Mr. "Hope and Change" himself, Barack Obama. Some liberals pretend Obama's biggest scandal was wearing a tan suit, even though Nobel Peace Prize-winner Obama maintained a “kill list,” killed a 16-year-old American citizen by drone strike in Yemen, supported warrantless surveillance, and signed into law the virtual elimination of Habeas Corpus. His administration also built the cages that the Trump Administration was criticized for using to house undocumented immigrants. Some may call this "WHAT ABOUTERY," even though former Presidents like George W. Bush, Joe Biden, and Barack Obama set the precedent for ignoring the Constitution at will. All President Trump has to do is cry “terrorism” and Constitutional protections fly right out the Oval Office window. That's why [I]all[/I] Presidents should be held accountable.
