If the United States signed a contract with El Salvador in that they would pay El.Salvador money to take in prisoners at CECOT and they shipped people to El Salvador that were bound for CECOT, the United States is the one sending them to prison without benefit of a criminal trial to determine guilt or innocence, which is a violation of the Constitution.
They aren’t absolved of responsibility because El Salvador is the one imprisoning them.
No court in the land would accept that as a defense.
So the US is indeed imprisoning people without due process. You can rationalize that all you want, but that’s all it is…a rationalization.
It is absolutely sickening our Supreme Court refused to hear Texas and Louisiana litigation challenging Biden’s open border policy in 2023 allowing an invasion of our border by 10 million aliens to take place, and now eight members on our Supreme Court are forbidding the current Administration from adopting a new policy and deporting aliens under the Alien Enemies Act.
Is this not clear and convincing evidence we have Supreme Court members acting in rebellion to our Constitution and its separation of powers, with regard to setting federal immigration policy?

”The accumulation of all powers, legislative, executive, and judiciary, in the same hands [our Supreme Court] . . . may justly be pronounced the very definition of tyranny.” ___ Madison, Federalist Paper No. 47
No person shall be held to answer for a capital, or otherwise infamous crime, unless on a presentment or indictment of a Grand Jury, except in cases arising in the land or naval forces, or in the Militia, when in actual service in time of War or public danger; nor shall any person be subject for the same offence to be twice put in jeopardy of life or limb; nor shall be compelled in any criminal case to be a witness against himself, nor be deprived of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor shall private property be taken for public use, without just compensation.
i can not believe you dont know the 5th amendment to the constitution.
I understand the position that a prison in another country can’t be used to get around the safeguards of the constitution. However, the congressmen rushing off to El Salvador to get their pictures taken defending MS 13 members are not creating the PR victories they hope. It’s akin to standing up for the rights of NAZI war criminals. Sound in theory but not earning the accolades hoped for.
The only “process” which may be due for an illegal entrant alien under the AEA who is being held for deportation appears to be a writ of habeas corpus, and it would be limited to determining whether or not the subject in question is in fact a foreign national, and not a citizen of the United States.
