Alternet: Trump giving prisoners fewer rights than they had in World War II internment camps: analyst

President Donald Trump’s refusal to bring a Maryland man, who was wrongfully deported to a notorious prison in El Salvador, back to the United States — despite a Supreme Court ruling — has raised serious concerns among some analysts, who say that such an unchecked use of the Alien Enemies Act is unprecedented.

In a report published in the New York Times Tuesday, reporters note that even during World War II, there was “a check” on the government and individuals who received a hearing under the civilian boards were mostly freed.

“During World War II, the Department of Justice established civilian hearing boards in which ‘registered aliens’ of German, Italian and Japanese descent arrested by the government could argue they were not a danger to the nation, legal scholars said,” the report states.

Reuters: US Marshals were mobilized to warn fired DOJ lawyer over congressional testimony, attorney says

Sending out armed thugs to intimidate a former employee at his home to remain mum! 🙁

The U.S. Justice Department sent armed U.S. Marshals to deliver a letter warning a fired career pardon attorney about testifying to congressional Democrats, her lawyer said in a letter seen by Reuters on Monday.

“This highly unusual step of directing armed law enforcement officers to the home of a former Department of Justice employee who has engaged in no misconduct, let alone criminal conduct, simply to deliver a letter, is both unprecedented and completely inappropriate,” Michael Bromwich, a lawyer representing fired pardon attorney Liz Oyer, wrote to the Justice Department.’

…

Oyer has since told various media outlets that her firing came shortly after she declined to recommend restoring gun rights to actor Mel Gibson, a supporter of President Donald Trump.
