Habeas corpus and the president's cabinet of clowns
Susan Estrich argues against Kristi Noem's misstatements on habeas corpus during a Senate hearing. The piece criticizes the cabinet, noting Noem's incorrect definitions and lack of constitutional understanding. It traces habeas corpus history to Magna Carta and 1600s English courts, and cites Supreme Court rulings and constitutional provisions. It also condemns detentions and deportations of students and other groups as unethical.
