There is no argument otherwise. They waited so long to rule on the COVID jab mandate that it didn't even matter. Their ruling was meaningless.

You never replied to this post

You said:

This is not possible as it relates to illegal alien citizens of other countries.

Yes it is, as this power is only given to the Executive via Congressional laws.

Where else do you think this power comes from?


Where do you think this authority for Trump comes from, if not from Congress?

Is that opinion consistent with the constitution?

Nope. Typing the word "logically" doesn't make it actually logical.

Executive discretion does not apply to orders of the court.

Executive discretion only applies to statutory authority granted to the Executive by Congress.
so you are arguing executive discretion only allows the executive to ignore the laws of congress, but not a court.

Enforcement of Laws:
The President can use their discretion in determining how and when to enforce laws, including the choice to not enforce them in certain situations, according to Michael T. Morley.


Exactly

What you are saying is that the President of the USA has the power to choose NOT to enforce laws in certain situations.

I'm not saying it, technically, the law is

The opposite is also true.

Yes. They are. The Executive has full authority to deport illegal aliens under the alien enemies act. The courts are ignoring our laws by saying anything else.

You made two points: (1) illegally removed, and (2) to a prohibited country. Common sense dictates that it could have been left at just #1 alone, and point would have stood independently. However you proactively added #2, which was a stand alone point in and of itself. So as to say “and to a prohibited country at that.” I’m asking for your support for independent point #2.

The Supreme Court decision has your answer (link already provided)

The President deporting people outside of Congressional authority is an illegal deportation.

Here's an example: deporting a US citizen to China.

I'm not. The law of our country (and the law building our legal system) is.

I'm just informing you what the law is

I specifically said "illegal alien," and you come back with something irrelevant.

The entire argument is centered on Citizen vs non-citizen

Then the constitutional language of “person” gets brought up vs “citizen”

Rinse and repeat

I mean sure. You can pretend SCOTUS ruled against vaccine mandates with enough time for them not to be forced upon people if you'd like.

Problem is, that's false. They didn't. The mandate went into effect before they ruled. The damage was already done.

Only within the limits of the authority given to him by that act.

As the Supreme Court just stated with respect to the AEA:

quote:

Although judicial review under the AEA is limited, we have held that an individual subject to detention and removal under that statute is entitled to “‘judicial review’” as to “questions of interpretation and constitutionality” of the Act as well as whether he or she “is in fact an alien enemy fourteen years of age or older.” Ludecke, 335 U. S., at 163-164, 172, n. 17. (Under the Proclamation, the term “alien enemy” is defined to include “all Venezuelan citizens 14 years of age or older who are members of TdA, are within the United States, and are not actually naturalized or lawful permanent residents of the United States.” 90 Fed. Reg. 13034.) The detainees’ rights against summary removal, however, are not currently in dispute. The Government expressly agrees that “TdA members subject to removal under the Alien Enemies Act get judicial review.” Reply in Support of Application To Vacate 1. “It is well established that the Fifth Amendment entitles aliens to due process of law” in the context of removal proceedings


I bolded and underlined for you, but since you can't read good, I can tell you what this means if you don't understand.
