It was a set-up I bet you
There was one passed to Pence as well
Let's talk about the law and war is there a body of law called the law of armed conflict there is such a body Center is there a body of law that's called basic criminal law yes sir are there differences between those two bodies of law yes senator from an American citizens point of view do your constitutional
rights follow you if you're in Paris just a Fourth Amendment TEKT you as an American from your own government from your own government yes okay so if
you're in Afghanistan do your constitutional rights protect you against your own government if you're an American in Afghanistan you have constitutional rights as against the US government Sarah long-standing that's that's wrong settled all in there also long-settled law that and it goes back to the
eisentrager case I can't remember the name of it Johnson versus isin trigger right that American citizens who collaborate with the enemy have
considered enemy combatants they can be they they can be they're often some there sometimes criminally prosecuted sometimes treated in the military let's
talk about can be I think the under Supreme Court precedent right for them again there's a Supreme Court decision that said that
American citizens who collaborated with Nazi saboteurs were tried by the military is that correct that is correct I think a couple of were executed yeah
so if anybody doubts there's a long-standing history in this country that your constitutional rights follow you wherever you go but you don't have a
constitutional right to turn on your own government collaborate with the enemy of the nation you'll be treated differently what's the name of the case if you can
recall that reaffirmed the concept that you could hold one of our own is an enemy combatant if there were engaged in terrorist activities in Afghanistan are
you familiar with that case Hamdi okay so the bottom line is on every American says to no you have constitutional rights but you do not have a
constitutional right to collaborate with the enemy there's a body of law well developed long before 9/11 that understood the difference between basic
criminal law and the law of armed conflict do you understand those differences I do understand that they're different bodies of law of course
