What are the key topics discussed in this episode of Truth in the Barrel?
Welcome to Truth in the Barrel, the unfiltered edition, where each week we run down the topics that you need to understand a little bit more because there is a lot of disinformation out there. I'm Amy McGrath. I'm with my co-host, Denver Riggleman, and we're happy to be with you today. Good day, good night, every day is a new adventure. And today, as we get started, Amy, I'd like to say, I know that this show is called Truth in the Barrel. Last week was the single barrel silverback. Today is the Christine Riggleman Reserve, which just got gold. Single barrel at the New Orleans Bourbon Festival. So I'm going to take a little bit of sip of that. I know we're going to need that later, right? We will. I cannot wait to talk to you about the things that have happened over the last week or so.
yeah it's a lot i mean i feel like every single week it's just a deluge of stuff we have to talk about um and really push back on i want to make sure that anyone following this uh follows us on all the social media channels that you follow so blue sky uh x uh what else is out there truth through social True Social, YouTube. Gosh, we're everywhere. We're like a conglomerate of awesomeness that is spreading over the entire globe. That's why I love this. You've got to follow us and tell all your friends and family about this show because we're going to be talking about all of the things that happen and we're going to be distilling them down to the actual truth. That's what this is about. All right, so let's get started.
Why is due process important in deportation cases?
So last week, and here's the thing, this happens quite a bit where you're driving down the road and you see somebody's bumper sticker and it says, I love the Constitution or I follow the Constitution. And quite often you meet these people and they have actually never read the Constitution. And so we have a member of Congress last week at a town hall in Indianapolis, Indiana, She was asked – this is a Republican member of Congress, okay? She was asked about the deportation of migrants from this country to prisons in El Salvador. And she basically said, hey, those people don't get due process. And here's the direct quote. If you violated the law, you are not entitled to due process. And – I can't tell you how many people actually believe that.
That is like the most un-American thing you can possibly say. We have this constitution and in there it says, hey, the Fifth Amendment says no matter who you are, if you're in this country, you get due process. And so I wanted to start out just talking about this. You've got to be referring. Is it Victoria Sparks? Yes. Is that who it was? Yeah. Indianapolis. Oh, Indianapolis. So Indiana – I think it's Indiana's fifth. I'm trying to remember the district. I bet I'm close. My guess is – and I'm going to do this as a Republican, right, as a former Republican, Amy – I bet people cheered. I didn't see that, right? But I bet people cheered. I did see some of the, I saw that it was her that had did that, you know, the statement. I read about it.
But I think it's pretty amazing that you would pick up on that because, you know, the Republicans always said they were the party of, you know, the Constitution. You know, the guy here in the 6th District, Ben Klein, one of my former colleagues in the 116th, he carries a pocket Constitution and waves it during committee meetings. And he's probably cheering this on. Oh, yeah. I mean, how do you cheer that on? You know, people don't deserve due process. It's sort of the bedrock of what makes us Americans is our justice system and the fact that we give people due process. And I can see I can see where people will be horrified, right, that that would be said unless you're a Republican in a town hall with somebody cheering that stuff on.
And here's the thing that a lot of people don't understand. And I taught the Constitution, right, to future military leaders of our country. The Constitution does not say if you are a citizen only, you get due process. The Constitution says persons here get due process, whether you are a citizen or not. And that is true for free speech, the First Amendment.
