Either we will be nation controlled by unelected judges, or we will be a nation that completely ignores them.
We have always been a nation where the "unelected judges" have the ability to check the Executive branch if they are acting against the constitution. Thats why the judge has to check the interpretation of this act because if it is misapplied then the executive is denying persons the right to due process of law, which is protected under the 14th amendment.
and yes....questioning interpretation is allowed with this act.

hey passed this because they thought they were going to go to war with France and wanted to be able to round up all the Frenchmen living in the US.
The issue wasn't the French, it was the British.
Canada was a colony of the Crown and the US was invaded from Canada by the British in 1812, just 14 years after AEA was passed.
Do not discount the fact that in 1776, a third of the colonists were loyal to the Crown.
"foreign nations or governments" - not foreign governments, why?
IMO - "foreign" was discretely excluded. If State or local government, comprised of individuals loyal to the Crown were facilitating an "invasion" of British agents and provocateurs, the Executive Branch had the right to remove them, whether we were at war with the British or not, overriding the invitation from the State. Now, does that make the facilitators treasonous, if their guests are expelled under this Act?
What i see, without receipts, is our own Federal Government appointed NGOs, with cooperation with foreign counties, facilitating of an invasion of foreign provocateurs. POTUS is not using AEA for all of the undocumented immigrants, just the ones that can be proven to be foreign agents, so to speak. With receipts, was a crime against the US committed by allowing this particular group if "immigrants" into the country?
Is using the AEA and seeing if it sticks a set up for other legal actions?

The issue with respect to this case is the judge in question has personal conflicts, documented bias, and is part of a clear broader strategy of obstruction now meandering into matters of national security and classified information.
that’s is also very much your opinion.
the personal conflict is overblown. Partners for Justice trains legal advocates to assist people with legal matters while working through Public Defender offices.
That includes working with immigrant but it isn’t exclusively for that. The organization itself is it lawyers, does not provide actual legal advice and is a nonprofit. his daughter isn’t a board member. While it’s publicaly funded no one has suggested that they would lose all funding if trump can deport these guys.
Having ruled against Trump before isn’t anymore evidence of bias than having ruled in trumps favor before, and this judge has.

this comes up all the time when people sue the government and what the Judge is ordering is standard. you either formally assert that the documents are a state secret or you provide the documents. The SCOTUS has determined that courts can rule on whether documents are state secrets, so they are supposed to get enough information to determine whether there is a legitimate basis or not.
Trump is not producing information and he is not formally asserting state secret privilege.
at least he wasn’t the last time I checked.
the judge has ordered him to do one or the other.

woah.. did I say that!?!
I'm simply highlighting the nature of modern warfare.. sometimes hot, sometimes cold, sometimes by proxy, and almost always featured with insurgents, guerillas, spinmeisters, hackers, spies, splinter groups, radicalized fundamentalists and the like. And we do this all the time. We sanction countries for aiding, abetting, funding, and harboring terrorists like this constantly. shite, we are sanctioning Venezuela currently.
Personally, I see the AEA conditions as met in this case because TdA is an organized terror group aligned with the Maduro regime. The debate is all good, but the left wants to wallow in legal nuance while ignoring the judges motives and biases.

well in 1798 it was the french the Federalist were worried about.

This is a piecemeal
interpretation that ignore how “foreign nation or government” is used throughout the statute.
if “government” could apply to US State Governments then the statue would give the president the ability to remove citizens of US States. which would violate their rights under the constitution.
it would make the act clearly unconstitutional.

This doesn’t begin to make sense in any application to the statute.

Well if the SCOTUS says the president has full authority to declare anyone he wants a “foreign nation or government” and declare them to have invaded the us and that the Courts would have 0 ability to review that, then yes, this will get used a lot.

correct. The majority federalists feared the French revolution would inspire a second American revolution by members of the Democratic-Republicans, who held favor with newer colonists still sympathetic to Europe.

The State department, in consultation with the DOJ and Treasury department designate FTO's. Not the president, and not unilaterally.
Posted on 3/21/25 at 4:21 pm to Vacherie Saint
But the AEA doesn’t apply to FTOs.
Trump has to make the FTO a foreign government or nation somehow.
and also… the president controls all of those departments so.

it doesn’t have to be a declared war.
it can be an invasion or predatory incursions or threat there of
the question is if TdA is a Foreign Government.

you made the point friend, but ill bite. If the FTO is linked to a foreign government, as TdA is, guess what window opens up?

LOL. No he doesnt. Just connect the threat to the regime, which is already the case

I know. It is disappointing when lawyers take the wrong side of the law. Knowing they are taking the wrong side of the law for political reasons. I hate a dirty lawyer.

the declared war clause is followed by a conspicuous OR any invasion or predatory incursion is perpetrated, attempted, or threatened against the territory of the United States by any foreign nation or government
The DOJ is leaning on TdA's connection to the Maduro regime, and the fact that Maduro released them from prisons and sent them here.
A parallel would be Hamas's affiliation with the Palestinian Muslim Brotherhood or Hezballah to Iran, as an example

The statue says foreign nation or government and then gives him power over citizens of that foreign nation or government.
so “linking” them isn’t enough. and he can’t just say a Venezuelan “linked” FTO invaded us. he basically has no say, TdA is for purposes the Venezuelan government.

again where in the statue does it say invasion by a “FTO linked to a foreign country”

Maybe Trump should try obeying the law more.

you are being intentionally obtuse
you claimed that Trump could unilaterally declare anyone a terrorist and leverage this act under the DOJs interpretation. Thats not true.
