  1. #SCOTUS makes clear AGAIN that the #Trump admin cannot just throw people onto planes with little to no notice. Those subject to the #AlienEnemiesAct MUST be given time to contact a lawyer, file a #habeas lawsuit, & pursue the case. IOW #DueProcess.

    Anything less is illegal.

  2. Last night, US Judge Sweeney in Colorado granted a district-wide (state-wide) class #habeas #TRO to stop #Trump from summarily removing *aliens* under his #AlienEnemiesAct proclamation. #ACLU attys had warned that, despite #SCOTUS ruling, Admin won't commit to providing even 24 hrs notice.

  3. WTAF??

    The #Trump admin says in its #SCOTUS filing requesting a stay of #Boasberg’s #AlienEnemiesAct #TRO that it can't confirm or deny whether #ElSalvador is complying with #UNCAT [#UnitedNations Convention Against #Torture] because doing so might damage its relationship with El Salvador.

    #September11, 2001: Lessons Learned And Overlooked

    "It has been 23 years ago this week since the attacks on September 11, 2001 in New York City, the Pentagon, and Shanksville, PA, killing nearly 3,000 people and injuring more than 6,000. On that day, the United States had a choice: The #GeorgeWBush administration could have treated the attacks as a violation of US and international law, launched a criminal investigation, and brought the perpetrators to justice in accordance with the rule of law. Instead, President Bush waged #EndlessWars against #Afghanistan and #Iraq, pushed through Congress the USA #PatriotAct, opened the notorious detention center at #GuantanamoBay which remain to this day, rounded up Muslims and South Asians for #IndefiniteDetention, initiated a wave of #CivilLiberties and #HumanRights violations, and committed wholesale torture against detainees and others.

    "To assess the legacy of 9/11 and the lessons learned and the lessons overlooked, we’ve invited someone who was at the center of Bush’s #WarOnTerror. John Kiriakou is a journalist, former CIA counterterrorism officer, former senior investigator for the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, and former counterterrorism consultant for ABC News.

    "In 2007, Kiriakou blew the whistle on the CIA’s torture program, telling ABC News that the #CIA tortured prisoners, that torture was official U.S. government policy, and that the policy had been approved by President George W. Bush. He knew what he was talking about. In 2002, he was responsible for the capture in Pakistan of #AbuZubaydah, then believed to be the third-ranking official in al-Qaeda.

    "He became the sixth #whistleblower indicted by the #Obama administration under the #EspionageAct of 1917 — a law designed to punish spies. He served 23 months in prison as a result of his revelations.

    "In 2012, the #RalphNader family honored #Kiriakou with the Joe A. Callaway Award for #CivicCourage, an award given to individuals who 'advance truth and justice despite the personal risk it creates.' He won the PEN Center USA’s prestigious First Amendment Award in 2015, the first Blueprint International Whistleblowing Prize for Bravery and Integrity in the Public Interest in 2016, and also in 2016 the Sam Adams Award for Integrity in Intelligence, given by retired CIA, FBI, and NSA officers."

  5. 🧵 1979 -> 2014
    > In recent years, much of Latin America has broken free from U.S. domination, a development of enormous historical significance... in many ways. One has to do with the topic of our study. During the period we reviewed, #LatinAmerica was a primary center of torture worldwide. No longer. The extent to which that has changed is revealed in an important study by the #OpenSocietyFoundation that reviewed global participation in the CIA program of #ExtraordinaryRendition. 🧵 #PEHR

  6. Il rapporto pubblicato oggi dall'Irish Council for Civil Liberties (#ICCL) conferma a chi non se ne fosse già accorto che l' #Irlanda è una sorta di portale interdimensionale attraverso il quale i dati dei cittadini europei vengono portati in #USA per sottoporli a una sorta di #ExtraordinaryRendition e superare le garanzie di #GDPR e #GarantePrivacy.
