Tax billionaires out of existence. #PresidentMusk should not exist. #OurPutin can cancel programs created by Congress, end scientific pursuits, destroy all social safety nets, we will win in the end. We can rebuild the country, our relationships.

People are not being "deported". They're being #kidnapped, sold into #slave #labor. They're victims of #HumanTrafficking. Even if we were at war, even if he could invoke the AEA from 1798 (#AlienEnemiesAct), he'd have no right to deny anyone #DueProcess. A #hearing before a #judge, #trials are not needed.
Human Rights Watch (link) calls for the repeal of the AEA.

Human Rights Watch · United States: Repeal the Alien Enemies ActThe 59-page report, “United States: Repeal the Alien Enemies Act, A Human Rights Argument,” describes how the Trump administration has utilized the act as a vehicle for its attempted end run around basic due process and human rights protections. Modern international law binds the United States to respect human rights through treaty frameworks and customary norms, many of which have been incorporated into US domestic law. The Alien Enemies Act is an archaic statute that predates these legal norms and is entirely incompatible with them.

WHAT?!

You mean to tell me this Undemocratic system, where the #federal level that's structured to be undemocratic in a country where it's #constitution made from undemocratic #slave owners, is not a #democracy? Shocker!

This shit has been a fucking thing since 2000.

For years, #Indigenous people in the #NWT have been working to #decolonize names. That's included calls to scrap the word #slave from #GreatSlaveLake and #Slavey, changing them to something meaningful to Indigenous people.

The request the territory received back in 2022 suggested the lake's name reflect four #IndigenousLanguages: Dene Zhatıé, Dëne Sųłıné Yatıé, Tłıchǫ Yatıı̨̀ and Wıı̀lıı̀deh Yatıı̨̀. It was supported by the North Slave Métis Alliance and the former MLA for #Yellowknife North, according to information from Cleveland's department.

Georgina Fabian, an elder from Fort Providence, said the name 'Slavey' is a #colonial term that was imposed on her people.

"It shouldn't take this long ... but the problem with Great Slave Lake itself is that there are many #IndigenousCommunities that border the lake, so it is now a matter of which name you should choose ... so there is a lot of politics with that," Nokleby said.
