Pretty sure checks and balances are still applicable for each administration as much as you’d refuse to believe. I’m fairly certain there were plenty of other politicians from both sides of the political spectrum on that list (which has no credible evidence of existing btw in the context people are making it out to be). Name calling Trump a dictator is like calling Biden a communist. Doesn’t make sense and is just inaccurate.

“The Supreme Court, however, has suggested that the extent of due process for aliens present in the United States ‘may vary depending upon [the alien’s] status and circumstance.’ For instance, at times the Court has indicated that at least some of the constitutional protections to which an alien is entitled may turn upon whether the alien has been admitted into the United States or developed substantial ties to this country.

There’s no grey area for due process. If you are within the US jurisdiction you have the constitutional right to sue process. Regardless of you being a citizen or not.

Additionally, your 5th amendment quote is misleading. Aliens are allowed a hearing if they were lawfully admitted/established strong ties in the US. Along with criminal status and time detained during removal proceedings are all contributing factors. So overall, aliens have the same due process rights unless they have been convicted of a crkme

The fifth amendment is what it is, but it’s the courts’ execution of it that sets the precedents for determining what due process laws are valid or not. The outcomes have differed which indicates that it is not 100% guaranteed. Entering the US illegally is a criminal conviction

Incorrect. It’s a civil infraction. The same as a speeding ticket. By that notion, should all Americans with a speeding ticket be questioned regarding their legal status? Or just the Hispanics?

Traffic violations can be civil or criminal depending. Going 20+ mph over in a posted speed zone constitutes criminal violation. Just because it’s a traffic violation doesn’t mean it’s automatically civil. If it’s a parking citation that’s a civil offense and so on

There is no shot you think 70,000 people being deported have went 20+ above the speed limit while they are undocumented. immigrants undocumented and documented are statistically less accurate to commit civil or criminal crimes.

Because enough tax payer dollars go them as it is and more additional spending would inflate our national debt (which democrats just made a huge fuss about) and taxes per person would increase substantially which most sane people do not want for their own personal lifestyles.
