Supreme Court Says Foreign Nationals Have No Due Process Rights Here

Contrary to what the liberal media and open-borders advocates say, illegal immigrants are not owed same constitutional protections as regular Americans

President Donald Trump recently suggested that illegal aliens should be sent back to their countries of origin without hearings and the years of litigation that often follow.

He branded the current process, which permits illegal aliens to repeatedly contest orders of removal, as “a mockery to good immigration policy and law and order.”

The mainstream media wasted no time in characterizing his suggestion as a “push to end due process for illegal immigrants.” And multiple news outlets made all manner of wild claims about the so-called rights of illegal aliens. But once again, in an effort to portray the chief executive as a xenophobe, the open-borders lobby has gotten its facts backward.

Trump is actually right on the mark. Much of the current legal framework for removing illegal aliens from the United States consists of badly reasoned federal district-court decisions, ridiculous settlement agreements, and politically motivated policy decisions.

The open-borders lobby and its handmaidens in the mainstream media have consistently represented this hodgepodge as a clear articulation of “affirmative rights.”

But that representation is misleading.

Illegal aliens are entitled to considerably less immigration due process than their advocates would have us believe...

Dave T: Sad to me that we need the Supreme Court to tell us this, isn't already self explanatory? Since when should it be otherwise? Except when you have a bunch of phony liberals whining about their idiotic "resistance" movement. Lay off the old Star Wars movies you clowns and get with program.
