Trump’s Constitutional Crisis: Habeas Corpus Threat & Qatar’s $400M Gift

In this episode, Tristan breaks down Stephen Miller’s shocking suggestion to suspend habeas corpus-a fundamental right dating back to the Magna Carta. In other corruption news, Tristan discusses Trump’s acceptance of a $400 million luxury aircraft from Qatar just one week after announcing a $5.5 billion Trump golf resort deal in the country. Tristan explains why the Qatar plane gift violates the Constitution’s Emoluments Clause and represents unprecedented presidential corruption.  With markets experiencing their worst April since 1932 and Trump’s approval ratings plummeting, Tristan argues these constitutional violations and corruption scandals signal America’s dangerous slide from rule of law to rule by mob boss.
