Q&A

• What historical context influences current Supreme Court decisions? ⚖️

  Current Supreme Court decisions reflect ongoing tensions between due process and governmental power, tracing back to historical instances like President Lincoln's suspension of habeas corpus during the Civil War. The current court's focus has been on procedural rather than substantive legal issues, which creates uncertainty about the implications for Trump supporters and opponents alike.

• What is the balance between executive power and due process? ⚖️

  The court is likely to support the president's executive powers to take significant actions like funding cuts and deportations, but it must also uphold the due process rights guaranteed under the 14th Amendment for everyone in the U.S., not just citizens. This creates a complex dynamic where the government must navigate substantial executive authority while still ensuring individual rights.

• How do recent Supreme Court rulings affect Trump's immigration policies? ⚖️
