The Obama Administration says it’s a-ok for them to break laws and ignore the Constitution because national security overrides those trivialities.
“The administration is saying that even if they are violating the constitution or committing a federal crime no court can stop them because it would compromise national security. That’s a very dangerous argument,” said Ilann Maazel, a lawyer with the New York-based Emery Celli firm who acts as lead counsel in the Shubert case.
