Due Process, Military Courts and Battlefield USA
The hosts analyze Panetta's claims regarding due process for "citizen terrorists," noting that such individuals would be tried in military rather than civilian courts. They discuss the "Expatriation Act" and the legal definition of the United States as a "battlefield" in the war on terror.
Enemy Expatriation Act, Show Sign-off from Bonaire
The hosts preview upcoming coverage of the Enemy Expatriation Act (H.R. 3166 and S. 1698), which would allow the government to strip Americans of their citizenship for supporting terrorism. The episode concludes with a sign-off from Bonaire, with plans to return to regular broadcasting on Thursday.
Enemy Expatriation Act, Loss of Nationality
House Resolution 3166, the Enemy Expatriation Act, proposes that U.S. nationals can lose their citizenship for engaging in or supporting hostilities against the United States. The hosts explain how this works in tandem with the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) to allow the military to detain former citizens without trial once their nationality is stripped.
