They also discussed the President's historically low approval rating, the Justice Department memo on the Alien Enemies Act (which allows for warrantless home searches without judicial review) and the slippery slope of reckless authoritarian actions. They also discussed the arrest of Milwaukee County judge Hannah Dugan, who is accused of obstructing immigration enforcement, and the importance of encryption as a technical safeguard against legal rights violations.
