Supreme Court Sides With Wrongly Deported Migrant

Anonymous
I mean Supreme Court justices may as well go home, if executive is not gonna enforce the courts orders then those orders are not worth the paper they were written on.

Let's actually clean the swamps as they like to say. MAGA = gone. Poof. I'll happily pay more taxes so the US can pay El Salvador $6+ million dollars to take them. Due process? I don't know her.

I mean, they're fine with it happening now so they'll be fine with it happening later to them.


The people doing this should probably read up on the history of people who set up and carry out terror campaigns like this; they would find out that they very often become the victims of the machinery they created.

That’s what I’m wondering too- so weird to dig in on this. Unless it really is just testing the waters.

One reason is they’d rather talk about immigration instead of the imploding economy they’ve caused

No, cutie, he isn't.


DP. Yes he is. He is a citizen of El Salvador, currently residing in…… wait for it…. El Salvador.


I wish more of you understood the constitution. Maybe read 20 minutes a night. Understand what a group of immigrants wrote in 1787, one of the most stable constitutions in modern history. This administration has shown how important it is.


I do understand the constitution. If he was a US Citizen, he’d have rights under it. He’s not, his bid for asylum was denied.


Stop parroting bullshit.

It’s not difficult to read the Bill of Rights to see which rights are for citizens, and which rights are for everyone on US soil. If you’re having trouble understanding the definition of “person,” you could also read the Supreme Court decision on this from last week. 9-0 said these non citizens have due process rights.


Not really full rights are for citizens the other people are subjective, however this man is not on us soil so there are no US rights for him even if illegals have any


He was erroneously removed from US soil. Let's bring him here to US soil and then we can debate which rights he gets and which he doesn't.


He wouldn't qualify to come back to the US as phoney asylum was removed from countries like El Salvador which have the safest crime rates after the crack down on gangs. The idea someone should get asylum because of local crime is wild.


The idea that you can avoid due process by sneaking someone over the border is wild.

Constitution rights can be annoying. That doesn't mean you get to skip the ones you don't like, though.


As a Citizen of El Salvador, what rights does he have under the US Constitution? What rights do YOU have in El Salvador under their constitution?


The Supreme Court said 9-0 to get him back here and give him due process.

9-0


If the Supreme Court of El Salvador ruled 9-0 to send a US Citizen to El Salvador, what power does that hold?





Who the eff cares? That is totally irrelevant to this situation.


It's the same exact thing. The Supreme Court of the US ruled 9-0 to send a El Salvador Citizen to the US. The only thing switched was the countries. They have 0 say.


You're totally mixed up. The US Supreme Court is not telling El Salvador to send the man here. The US Supreme Court is telling the US government to fix their mistake and get the man back here, however they deem best (or mid or worst, whichever). The US government made a mistake, now they can fix it. Just like they fix it all the other times they mistakenly remove people. The main reason this time is different is because Stephen Miller doesn't want to. That's it, that's the only difference.


OK, what is your solution to get him back here? The President of his home country said he will not send him back. What do you suggest we do now?

I am actually distressed to think it’s possible that man has died. So horrific.

My solution is for the United States to get him back here. The President of the country where he is said he would not spontaneously send him here, rightly so. So let's request that he do so or put him on a plane belonging to us.

Done.

Non-citizens have rights under our US Constitution. The Supreme Court has ruled on this many, many times.

https://libertarianinstitute.org/articles/constitutional-rights-noncitizens/
Should a noncitizen be charged with a crime, he has exactly the same Fifth and Sixth Amendment procedural rights as a citizen, including the right to a jury trial, the right to counsel, and protection against self-incrimination. If convicted, the Eighth Amendment prevents the government from subjecting aliens to “cruel and unusual punishment” in exactly the same ways as it does with citizens.



https://www.pbs.org/newshour/politics/what-constitutional-rights-do-undocumented-immigrants-have <- this one is good in that it reminds us all that the US Constitution states "people" and "persons" when describing rights, it does not say "US citizens".


Correct, IF they are currently on US soil, which he is not


because he was sent away illegally without due process, so it is incumbent upon the administration to get him back and either release him, or given the the due process he is afforded under the Constitution. Anything short of that voids the Constitution as a guiding principle for our republic.[b]


I agree on all of those points, and always have. My point was (and still is) he is currently in his home country, we do not have the authority to bring him back here. His country can send him if they want, and they are refusing. His country can release him, and they haven't, so at this point, what is the plan?

Do we have the authority to grab a citizen of a country FROM that country (especially if they are not charged with a crime)?

Does Italy have the authority to come to the USA and take Amanda Knox back to Italy? How is this different?

He should not have been deported, but now that he has been, he is under the jurisdiction of El Salvador.


El Salvador is not refusing to send him back. President Trump is refusing to ask them to send him back.


El Salvador’s President confirmed today that he will not return this illegal immigrant gang member. No court can force a foreign government to return their national who was illegally present in this country.

Democrats claim to be alarmed about Trump threatening to deport US citizen criminals to El Salvador prisons. Yet, you just advocated in favor of deporting US citizens to a foreign prison - citizens who committed no crime, just that you don’t like their political views. Your post is abhorrent. What you are advocating for is illegal.
