The 1948 US Supreme Court case that upheld the Alien Enemies Act and ruled that the courts had no jurisdiction to hold hearings on deportations done under that act was Ludecke v. Watkins. It involved President Truman's deportation during peacetime of a foreign national who had entered America legally and held a Green Card. You can read the Supreme Court opinion in that case here: supreme.justia.com

It is appalling to me that our Supreme Court did not follow the clear precedent of Ludecke and dismiss the Democrat legal challenges to Trump's deportations under the Alien Enemies Act. The same interpretation of the law applied to Truman should also apply to Trump.

The Democrat gambit is to cause massive delay in the deportation process with a flood of court hearings for "due process". It is part of the far left's Cloward-Piven strategy to overwhelm the system. Piven, BTW, was president of the Democratic Socialists of America.

By contrast, the hundreds of thousands of deportations in both the Clinton and Obama presidencies did NOT use due process hearings at this stage. Neither did President Eisehhower's mass deportation program codenamed Operation Wetback. The Democrats are trying to use their allied in the courts to change the rules for Trump and bog down his efforts.

There is a lot of due process required from those who want to immigrate to our country contained in our immigration laws. Illegal aliens thumbed their noses at those due process requirements to sneak in, so it is an outrage for them to demand due process when they are sent home.

The justices who went along with this outrage are beneath contempt. One expects that of the three leftwing members and it should be expected of them. Sadly, Bush appointee John Roberts sits horses with those three far too often. The real outrage is the three trump appointees who seem to take after Benedict Arnold.

In Trump's first term, his staff vetting Supreme Court nominees had tunnel vision on trying to overturn Roe vs. Wade, and concentrated on finding nominees who would vote to overturn that abortion case but could still get through the confirmation process. They seem to have ignored their positions on other key issues, and cases like this one are the result. All three Trump appointees side with the liberals far too often, although rarely all three together. Amy Comey Barrett is by far the worst. She was even the deciding vote against free speech in the most important free speech case in a century. She was a one trick pony.

While I have always taken a pro-life position, it is far less of a key issue than immigration or free speech. Right now I am so angry at the tunnel vision of the pro-lifers at pushing this type of SCOTUS appointee at the expense of much more important issues, that it almost makes me want to flip to pro-abortion.

John Roberts revealed his true colors as a coward who is terrified of offending the establishment when he sold out the American people on Obamacare. One wonders what sort of incriminating info the Democrats may have on him to explain his constant betrayals from that time since. All of Trump's appointees have been disappointments, especially Amy Comey Barrett, and this is not the first key issue for any of them to go socialist.
