'Incorrect!' Kristi Noem shamed on live TV for ignorance about habeas corpus

Sen. Maggie Hassan (D-NH) grilled DHS Secretary Kristi Noem over misconceptions about habeas corpus, the legal right to challenge detentions in court.

During Tuesday's Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee hearing, Hassan asked Noem to explain habeas corpus rights.

"Well, habeas corpus is a constitutional right that the president has to be able to remove people from this country and suspend their right to," Noem began before being interrupted.

"No, let me stop you, ma'am," Hassan remarked.
