The Supreme Court has just ruled that the worst murderers, drug dealers, gang members, and even those who are mentally insane, who came into our Country illegally, are not allowed to be forced out without going through a long, protracted, and expensive Legal Process, one that will take, possibly, many years for each person, and one that will allow these people to commit many crimes before they even see the inside of a Courthouse. The result of this decision will let more CRIMINALS pour into our Country, doing great harm to our cherished American public. It will also encourage other criminals to illegally enter our Country, wreaking havoc and bedlam wherever they go. The Supreme Court of the United States is not allowing me to do what I was elected to do. Sleepy Joe Biden allowed MILLIONS of Criminal Aliens to come into our Country without any “PROCESS” but, in order to get them out of our Country, we have to go through a long and extended PROCESS. In any event, thank you to Justice Alito and Justice Thomas for attempting to protect our Country. This is a bad and dangerous day for America!

[Original post on masto.ai]
PATEL: Your position is that every one of those individuals is by constitutional right afforded due process. I don't know the answer to that. MERKLEY: You haven't read the constitution? PATEL: I've got it right here. But What you're saying is that every single one of the illegals that was sent down to El Salvador is supposed to be given due process pursuant to - MERKLEY: That's what the constitution says. PATEL: It doesn't say that. MERKLEY: It does say "no person." I'll encourage you to read it - PATEL: I read it every day. MERKLEY: — because it's also been affirmed by the Supreme Court repeatedly. [Miranda v. rizona, Reno v. Flores) But it’s the plain language of the Constitution. It concerns me that you're not familiar with the core concept of due process applying to all persons as written in black & white in the constitution. PATEL: As the first public defender who's ever served the FBI as its director, I am more aware of due process than any predecessor in my seat. You're delineating between removal proceedings & criminal acts. My job is to investigate criminal acts. MERKLEY: You are aware that the 5th amendment refers to taking away liberty & when people are arrested on the street, detained.... their liberty is taken away.

The Executive possesses enormous powers to prosecute and to deport, but with powers come restraints. If today the Executive claims the right to deport without due process and in disregard of court orders, what assurance will there be tomorrow that it will not deport American citizens and then disclaim responsibility to bring them home?∗ And what assurance shall there be that the Executive will not train its broad discretionary powers upon its political enemies? The threat, even if not the actuality, would always be present, and the Executive’s obligation to “take Care that the Laws be faithfully executed” would lose its meaning. U.S. CONST. art. II, § 3; see also id. art. II, § 1, cl. 8 ∗ See, e.g., Michelle Stoddart, ‘Homegrowns are Next’: Trump Doubles Down on Sending American ‘Criminals’ to Foreign Prisons, ABC NEWS (Apr. 14, 2025, 6:04 PM); David Rutz, Trump Open to Sending Violent American Criminals to El Salvador Prisons, FOX NEWS (Apr. 15, 2025, 11:01 AM EDT).

"These are heinous monsters, rapists, murderers, kidnappers, sexual assaulters, predators who have no right to be in this country," Leavitt said. She added that she could "assure the American people that Customs and Border Protection & ICE & the Department of Homeland Security are sure about the identities of the individuals who were on these planes & the threat that they posed to our homeland."

In a March 27 news conference, Secretary Rubio reaffirmed that the reason for Rümeysa's arrest & detention was her actual & perceived pro-Palestinian speech & political activity. At the conference, a member of the media asked Secretary Rubio to explain the specific actions that led to Rümeysa's visa being revoked. The Secretary responded "oh, we revoked her visa," & continued: “We gave you a visa to come & study & get a degree not to become a social activist that tears up our university campuses. And if we've given you a visa & then you decide do that we're going to take it away. We don't want it. We don't want it in our country. Go back & do it in your country. But you're not going to do it in our country." Secretary Rubio added: "Every time I find one of these lunatics I take away their visa," suggesting that hundreds of visas have been revoked in furtherance of the administration's Policy of targeting noncitizens for their pro-Palestinian speech.'
