During a recent press appearance, White House deputy chief of staff Stephen Miller revealed that the Trump Administration is contemplating the controversial suspension of habeas corpus. He justified this by claiming constitutional provisions allow such a suspension during invasions. Miller's comments, prompted by a planted question, reflect an alarming disregard for judicial authority and due process, particularly as he maintained that federal judges should not be involved in immigration matters. Law experts criticize this interpretation, underscoring the significant legal ramifications of such actions.
He put particular stress on the second syllable of âsupreme,â as if some pesky court might be trying to flex its muscle at constitutional expense.
Miller asserted that the Immigration and Nationality Act had decreed that 'Article III courts'-federal judges with lifetime tenure, in contrast to immigration judges, who are part of the executive branch and can be fired-'aren't even allowed to be involved in immigration cases.
