I actually really hate appeals to the notion that we are endowed by God with unalienable rights when these same people argue that Kilmar Abrego Garcia doesn't have due process rights because he's a Salvadoran citizen and not an American one.
Locating the philosophical origins of the Declaration in Aristotle and medieval scholasticism is, aside from being just incredibly wrong, shows the contradiction of neo-Thomists/right-wing Catholics trying to shoehorn in their ideology into the traditional Whiggish history of America
