The headline is deeply misleading. You can’t suspend habeas corpus just “for migrants.” As we’ve seen, ICE will pick *anyone* up. If you have legal status but no right to habeas corpus, you’ll have no ability to challenge your detention or deportation. Suspension for some is suspension for all.

Article I: The Legislative Branch
Section 9, Clause 2: The Privilege of the Writ of Habeas Corpus shall not be suspended, unless when in Cases of Rebellion or Invasion the public Safety may require it.
It's well past time federal judges start dragging Stevie into court and putting him under oath.
Print them out (see B&W in replies) and hang them at your libraries, bars, bookshops, churches, colleges, coffee shop, markets, etc. Hand them out at protests.

Yes, a very dangerous move. Stephen Miller knows what he is doing here - and soon, Trump will order removal of protesters/Democrats (politicians!).
Seems to me that's the entire point.

Bounties v Bush (2008)
Ruling: Chief Justice Roger Taney, sitting as a circuit judge, ruled that:
• ONLY CONGRESS has the constitutional authority to suspend habeas corpus under Article I.
• Lincoln’s unilateral suspension was unconstitutional.
This is an unprecedented assault on everyone’s liberty.

I don’t think this SCOTUS will agree with them, nor should they, but if they do then they will absolutely suspend habeas “just for migrants.”
