Trump’s masked immigration raids have tested how much cruelty the public will tolerate in the name of order. The backlash shows there are limits – and the lesson is not just for the US, writes Jack Waterford.

Cruelty as policy only works until the public recoils
Trump’s immigration crackdown reveals how governments test public tolerance for cruelty exercised in the name of order – a lesson with clear echoes in Australia’s own recent history.

After today, I want to see criminal indictments against any #DOJ officials involved in thousands of unlawful redactions in violation of Public Law No: 119-38, the Epstein Files Transparency Act. There must be consequences. #RuleOfLaw www.congress.gov/bill/119th-c...

"The Dept of Justice has been in a cover-up mode for months... trying to sweep the entire thing under the rug"

This is just another way Trump has debased the rule of law, ie, forgiveness to his criminal allies. It’s yet another step to full on autocracy. It’s affecting states too. November can’t come soon enough. #RuleOfLaw #ncpol

Crockett: "The US is falling apart, partially bc he's allowing for killings in the street, but also bc we have a 34 count convicted felon being shielded from any type of accountability as it relates to a child sex trafficking ring. I don't understand why we're pretending any of this is normal."

Detention centers are how repression begins.
History shows where it ends.

My own experience with Canada's criminal justice system, & hearing Canadian PM Justin Trudeau repeatedly insist on the #RuleOfLaw inspired the following saying:

#TheRuleOfLaw is "all well and good" until it is neither well, nor good. . .

The #DOJ under #Bondi has become a tool of persecution of political ennemies of #Trump rather than one to prosecute criminals.
8% loss of staff, many because the didn't do what Trump demanded.
No honorable man wants to help to corrupt the justice system.

209. The Modern Emergency Docket Turns Ten
The February 2016 rulings blocking the Clean Power Plan were unprecedented; in retrospect, they were harbingers of a paradigm shift in the Supreme Court's role.
