I've been wondering when #trump will declare #martiallaw so I was reading the wiki this morning when several things clicked:

Pam Bondi's memo claiming no right to relief.

Trump's invocation of the enemy aliens act calling it an invasion.

The wording of the Constitution around the conditions for suspension of habeas corpus.

The US is already under martial law. I just didn't realize it.

A cooperative state governor is all it takes. And there are a lot of cooperative governors.

@mimsy_borogrove@mastodon.social Trump is slow-walking us into Nazi-style martial law. And he’s speeding up today by rolling out troops in DC for a make-believe β€œemergency” and targeting other major cities (run by Democrats). #MartialLaw #fascism #authoritarianism #resistance #resist
