Newt's Congress by the way (not 100% sure, doubt it was done in the 2 disasterous years pre-Newt
wish we had a similar Speaker, perhaps would without California's gerrymandering worth about 10 seats

Congress cannot "strip" a fundamental Constitutional right. Only amending the Constitution can do so.

Non U.S. citizens AKA undocumented, AKA illegals, aren't afforded a fundamental Constitutional right.

Has SCOTUS ruled that legislation unconstitutional?

So congress and executive passed this, but judicial can deny it?? What happened to separation of powers?

This is not true.
quote:
“It is well established that the Fifth Amendment entitles aliens to due process of law” in the context of removal proceedings. Reno v. Flores, 507 U. S. 292, 306 (1993). So, the detainees are entitled to notice and opportunity to be heard “appropriate to the nature of the case.” Mullane v. Central Hanover Bank & Trust Co., 339 U. S. 306, 313 (1950).
That quote is literally from the Supreme Court's 9-0 ruling from April 7.
That means Thomas, Alito, and Gorsuch all agreed with that language.

Just because a law is passed doesn't mean it's Constitutional.
I'm just making that statement generally. A law could be passed unanimously by Congress and the Senate and signed by the President and still violate the Constitution and be ruled illegal by the courts. That's how Separation of Powers works in a Constitutional system. The Constitution limits government power, not matter how popular that power is at a given moment.

"go home" isn't a prison sentence

"due process" can be a simple hearing and they DO NOT fricking need to be here for that to happen.

I once thought of Newt as a failure. Compared to those who followed him, he was a hero

Speaking of the constitution. Here is the first sentence.
We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defense, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America.

The only thing Congress can do to citizens of other countries is declare war on them.

Funny though, how the judiciary can all the sudden decide a 30 year old law is "unlawful."

Get outta here with all your fancy facts! Rabble, rabble, rabble! If Congress in its wisdom violates the 2nd Amendment through legislation, what do we care...oh, wait...

Has the Supreme Court struck it down?
Posted on 5/6/25 at 9:20 am to BHS78
same suspects again assuming any backwater judge is always right and everything must stop for years while the judge is proven wrong

Is every citizen of the world covered under the US Constitution?
