Cobb also forcefully rejected the #Trump admin’s argument…that immigrants who crossed the border illegally forfeited certain protections, such as the right to fight their removal in court. She warned the argument was so broad it could easily ensnare US citizens.

“In defending this skimpy process, the government makes a truly startling argument: that those who entered the country illegally are entitled to no process under the #FifthAmendment…,” she wrote.

Maxwell's lawyers said in a letter Tuesday that Maxwell, an associate of the late financier Jeffrey Epstein, would be willing to testify if she received formal immunity, alongside other requests. Otherwise, she would assert her #FifthAmendment rights and decline to testify, they said. #law #legal #testimony #coverup #trump #maga #democracy

“What the federal government would have this Court believe — in the face of a mountain of evidence presented in this case — is that none of this is actually happening,” the judge wrote.

She said that “roving patrols” without reasonable suspicion violated the #FourthAmendment of the #Constitution & that denying access to lawyers violated the #FifthAmendment.

We the People of the United States, have NO KINGS. 🚫👑

A woman holds up a protest sign quoting the Declaration of Independence grievances, “He has… kept among us in times of peace standing armies. He has combined with others to subject us to Jurisdiction foreign to our Constitution. For cutting off our trade with the rest of the world. For imposing Taxes on us without our consent. For depriving us, in many Cases of the Benefits of Trial by Jury. For transporting us beyond Seas…” Another quote follows from Franklin D. Roosevelt, “We have no kings, we have no rulers, but we do have duty and freedom.”A woman holds a protest sign referencing the 5th and 14th Amendments of the United States Constitution reading “No person shall.. be deprived of life, liberty, or property without due process of law.”

New filing yesterday in #MahmoudKhalil's case: Petitioner’s Supplemental Brief Regarding Vagueness Claims

The #Trump policy of targeting #noncitizens who speak out for #Palestinian rights & #MarcoRubio's use of the "foreign policy ground" for #deportation are impermissibly vague, & violate #FirstAmendment & #FifthAmendment rights.

Pursuant to this Court's order…the petitioner submits this supplemental briefing solely regarding his due process void-for-vagueness claims. These claims focus on the government's announced policy to arrest, detain, & seek to deport noncitizens who engage in protected expression in support of Palestinian rights or critical of Israel (the "Policy"), & its use of 8 U.S.C. 8 1227(a)(4)(C) (the "Foreign Policy Ground) to effectuate the Policy. Mr. Khalil raises two independent but related vagueness arguments. First, he argues that the government has adopted a Policy that is impermissibly vague & should be enjoined for the same reasons courts routinely find that policies, both written & unwritten, run afoul of due process: this Policy provides no notice to noncitizens regarding which of their otherwise-lawful expressive activity will result in the government targeting them for arrest, detention & removal, and it gives government officials unfettered discretion to target disfavored speech. Second, Mr. Khalil argues that the Foreign Policy Ground is itself impermissibly vague as applied to him through the Rubio Determination because neither the statue, past executive practice, nor the legislative history gave Mr. Khalil any notice, in advance of the government's enforcement, that he could possibly be subject to detention & removal for participating -alongside thousands of others

"the #FifthAmendment expressly states that “No *person* shall … be deprived of life, liberty, or property, without due process of #law….”...

You don’t have to be a lawyer to understand that this means everyone in the #US... is entitled to #DueProcess. To say you “don’t know” whether you can agree w/the clear language of the #5thAmendment means you aren’t even trying to defend the #Constitution. Rather, you are dismissing and defying it."

Bipartisan lawmakers, Wabanaki leaders propose next change to Settlement Act

by Emma Davis
Fri, April 4, 2025

"A bipartisan group of lawmakers presented legislation on Friday to prevent the state from being able to seize #Wabanaki land for public use without consultation.

"For the past several Legislative sessions, leaders of the Wabanaki Nations have worked with lawmakers to try to overhaul the 1980 #MaineIndianClaimsSettlementAct that has resulted in the tribes being treated more akin to municipalities than #SovereignNations.

"So far, sweeping change has failed due to opposition from Gov. #JanetMills, but the executive, lawmakers and Wabanaki leaders have successfully made some targeted adjustments, including expanding tribal authority to prosecute crimes last year.

"#LD958 represents the next area of focus, although an omnibus bill is still expected to be considered during the second regular session of the Legislature next year.

"Sponsored by House Minority leader Billy Bob Faulkingham (R-Winter Harbor) and bipartisan co-sponsors, LD 958 would amend the #SettlementAct and the 2023 #MikmaqNationRestorationAct — as the Mi’kmaq Nation hadn’t been included in the earlier act — to prohibit eminent domain, a protection already afforded to almost all other federally recognized tribes.

" 'Much of our land contains irreplaceable cultural, spiritual and ecological resources,' said #Passamaquoddy Tribal Rep. Aaron Dana, a co-sponsor of the bill who sits on the Judiciary Committee. 'This bill ensures those places are safeguarded and are not subject to #destruction or #appropriation. Too often in our history, our #TribalLands have been taken, divided and exploited under the guise of progress.'

"The U.S. government can seize private property for public use, known as eminent domain, however that authority is restricted by the #FifthAmendment U.S. Constitution, which requires just compensation for land taken, as well as some federal laws.

"Rep. Rachel Henderson (R-Rumford), a co-sponsor who sits on the Judiciary Committee, questioned whether the bill is in conflict with the Constitution. It is not, Faulkingham, tribal leaders and attorneys explained, because the Constitution outlines when eminent domain can be exercised but not that it can’t be further restricted.

" 'There’s nothing in the Fifth Amendment that prohibits a state from enacting laws that says we won’t do that,' Faulkingham said.

"LD 958 applies to land protected under federal law — trust and reservation land — but fee lands — private property for which the owner owns the title — would still be subject to state power of eminent domain. A constitutional amendment allows states to condemn individually owned plots within tribal reservations.

"Maine has seized Wabanaki land from the start of their intertwined histories, as the state territory today had first been inhabited by the Wabanaki people."
