Trump Thinks He Can Get Around Due Process by Suspending Habeas Corpus? Federal Judges Disagree! - Glenn Kirschner [View all]
Donald Trump apparently thinks the Constitution is inconvenient, getting in the way of his fervent desire to deport anyone and everyone he wants out of the United States.
His latest unconstitutional scheme is to suspend the writ of Habeas Corpus, which enables people being confined by Trump's executive branch to challenge the legality of their detention.
Trump and his henchmen, guys like Stephen Miller, apparently think they can unilaterally suspend habeas corpus? The problem for them is the federal courts disagree, including Republican/conservative icon, the late Justice Antonin Scalia. - Glenn Kirschner - 05/12/2025.
