A few facts regardless of what side of the due process/deportation debate you're on raised by Vance:
1) Only reason Abrego Garcia case is a controversy is an immigration court blocked his deportation, and Trump Admin admitted he was "mistakenly" picked up by ICE.
2) SCOTUS ruled 9-0 (Thomas, Alito, etc.) that US must "facilitate" his return.
3) Ordinary deportations - sending someone back to their country of origin - are very quick and easy: it's done by a deportation "court" inside DOJ.
4) That's radically different than sending people to life in prison in a third country they have nothing to do with, based on allegations of criminality that are never proven. Due process is raised only with that.
5) SCOTUS also just ruled 9-0 (including Thomas, Alito, etc) that anyone Trump Admin wants to remove as an "alien enemy" under AEA first gets a habeas hearing to contest charges of gang membership.
6) A Trump-appointed judge in TX then, based on SCOTUS ruling, ordered AEA deportations of Venezuelans to El Salvador to cease pending a hearing.
These aren't "left-wing activist judges" doing this. It's also right-wing judges -- the ones most popular among the Right -- upholding the Bill of Rights (which has applied to everyone in the US, not just citizens, for at least 150 years).
Consider that Joe Biden allowed approximately 20 million illegal aliens into our country. This placed extraordinary burdens on our country--our schools, hospitals, housing, and other essential services were overwhelmed. On top of that, many of these illegal aliens committed violent crimes, or facilitated fentanyl and sex trafficking. That is the situation we inherited.
The American people elected the Trump administration to solve this problem. The President has successfully stopped the inflow of illegal aliens, and now we must deport the people who came here illegally.
To say the administration must observe "due process" is to beg the question: what process is due is a function of our resources, the public interest, the status of the accused, the proposed punishment, and so many other factors. To put it in concrete terms, imposing the death penalty on an American citizen requires more legal process than deporting an illegal alien to their country of origin.
When the media and the far left obsess over an MS-13 gang member and demand that he be returned to the United States for a *third* deportation hearing, what they're really saying is they want the vast majority of illegal aliens to stay here permanently.
Here's a useful test: ask the people weeping over the lack of due process what precisely they propose for dealing with Biden's millions and millions of illegals. And with reasonable resource and administrative judge constraints, does their solution allow us to deport at least a few million people per year?
If the answer is no, they've given their game away. They don't want border security. They don't want us to deport the people who've come into our country illegally. They want to accomplish through fake legal process what they failed to accomplish politically:
The ratification of Biden's illegal migrant invasion.
President Trump and I will not stand fori t.
