Getting rid of guns... puts the power of force into the Trump administration. ICE has had to deport people not from homes but from, like, courthouses and targets of opportunities due to US firearms. Imagine if no one had a gun, and they could raid entire apartment blocks for anyone that looks Central American or Venezuelan without preparation. By the time a judge complains, they will already be in an El Salvadorian prison camp.
Ok, there's that (assuming he's trying to ban, not restrict, guns), but I'm not seeing gun possessing people defending themselves from ICE etc.
That's because ICE is not doing mass raids on apartment buildings in the middle of the night. But just in case fascism comes to the US it will be liberal gun owners who will be able to protect themselves, their family, and friends with guns.
Habeas doesn't apply in this situation is my point.
Supreme Court ruling, word for word: "Challenges to removal under the AEA must be brought in habeas".
Court said not to take off. Planes took off.
It almost certainly won't though.
The fact that it did happen notwithstanding....

And as always, you're foolish enough to believe his bullshit and he did it anyway.
This. People act like the AR-15 is some sort of obscure rifle with no use outside of public mass shootings, but AR-15 and workalikes are the most popular kind of rifle in the US, by a decent margin. In part because they're flexible, with lots of interchangeable parts and variations of those parts made by a bunch of manufacturers that mean you can essentially make it whatever you need it to be (hence the "modular" in the term modular sporting rifle). It's almost more of a platform than a specific firearm.
It also has the "cache" of having heavily influenced the M16 and M4, both used by the US military for decades and therefore seen as "freedom's arsenal". (The NRA openly called it "America's rifle".)
Let's imagine fascists took over the US federal government. Implicitly, this means at least approximately half the country backed the fascists, so that's how bad it is at the start point. It's unlikely the non-fascists all agree the fascists need to be resisted: a load of them will be too afraid, or think they can follow the laws and systems and prep for the next election, so the non-fascists will be disunified, cautious and indecisive.
I thought habeas was just for imprisonment, not just detention as well. Also, you do realize, none of the illegal immigrants will win writ of habeas corpus, right?
Proof?
I don't know if backed is the right word here. You actually don't need a lot of fascist to take over the country. You just need a population that is unwilling to do anything to stop them. Far too many people are willing to let genocides happen as long as its not happening to them
A lot of then might well support fascism, while claiming to oppose it, though.
Why does anyone give a shit what Vaush thinks? These people aren't insightful or interesting, they are just marketing campaigns. They have people to go round researching what issues are likely to get attention, and then a schtick to win over some audience share.
It's not "extinction" they're worried about, but white underpopulation. Because they grew up under the mindset that it is the god-given right of the majority to tyrannize the minority, and they are terrified of becoming a minority themselves, because "they'll do it to us too".
