The Trump adviser is trying to redefine the Constitution in order to carry out his extreme immigration agenda.
The Trump administration continues to subvert the constitutional right to due process to justify its illegal, extrajudicial deportations.
“The right of ‘due process’ is to protect citizens from their government, not to protect foreign trespassers from removal,” wrote deputy chief of staff Stephen Miller on Monday morning. “Due process guarantees the rights of a criminal defendant facing prosecution, not an illegal alien facing deportation.”
This is not how the law works. The clause has no specification for citizenship. Miller’s claim has been widely rebuked.
