President Trump enacted his executive order pursuant to 8 U.S.C.A. §1182(f), which states as follows:
“Whenever the President finds that the entry of any aliens or of any class of aliens into the United States would be detrimental to the interests of the United States, he may by proclamation, and for such period as he shall deem necessary, suspend the entry of all aliens or any class of aliens as immigrants or nonimmigrants, or impose on the entry of aliens any restrictions he may deem to be appropriate."
The Supreme court has already ruled on this. the judges were wrong the first time around the judge was wrong this time.

Capt Gregory Prickett - Then when does 8 U.S.C.A. §1182(f):

“Whenever the President finds that the entry of any aliens or of any class of aliens into the United States would be detrimental to the interests of the United States, he may by proclamation, and for such period as he shall deem necessary, suspend the entry of all aliens or any class of aliens as immigrants or nonimmigrants, or impose on the entry of aliens any restrictions he may deem to be appropriate."

Maj John Bell - it applies to non-citizens and non-LPRs. That's it. Trump doesn't get to arbitrarily deport people because he had a bad day.

This is where you got me confused. If Trump actually dies something resembling governing instead of Twitter attacks and attention-whoring behavior, I'll give the devil his due. I'm adult enough and confident enough in myself to admit when I'm wrong. All he has done is go on his "Look at me!! Aren't I great?" tours and hide out at his resort, on the tax payers dime I might add

You might want to look up the word constitution and do a little research into who it applies to

SGM Erik Marquez & MAJ Byron Oyler - that's not entirely correct. There has been no finding to date by the Supreme Court on if the First Amendment applies to entry into the United States. It is impossible to say if it applies or not.

Constitutional rights do apply to all persons within the U.S., whether they are here legally or not. In some cases, rights apply on an extraterritorial basis. See Boumediene v. Bush, 553 U.S. 723 (2008).

While due process rights and right to counsel do not apply to someone who has not yet been admitted, it is unclear if the rights in the First Amendment do not apply.

Capt Gregory Prickett - sir
Sight the case law and USSC decision that supports non US citizens outside of the US as having rights under the constution of the US.

Sir we both know no such case law or USSC decision exists.
Until it does my position that non us citizens living outside the US have no constitutional rights is valid.

As yours would be if you say they do have constitutional rights neither of us have caselaw or Supreme Court decision to back up our opinions I except that

Nevertheless my opinion is non-US citizens outside the US have no constitutional rights under the US Constitution

SGM Erik Marquez - Boumediene v. Bush, 553 U.S. 723 (2008) is one, where non-citizens being held by the U.S. military outside of the United States still have the constitutional right for a writ of habeas corpus. That's why I cited it above.

See also Rasul v. Bush, 542 U.S. 466 (2004); Hamdi v. Rumsfeld, 542 U.S. 507 (2004); and Hamdan v. Rumsfeld, 548 U.S. 557 (2006). All deal with constitutional rights outside of the U.S.

Capt Gregory Prickett - "being held by the U.S"
That puts then "In the US" if not physically, then still under US control.

YES, I understand that case is an exception....but only because they are in a US detention facility, under US control.... But that is NOT what we are discussing...

We are discussion Non US citizens Not in the US (or in US Detention facility, under US control)
That is the demographic the temporary travel ban is targeting...That is the demographic who has NO constitutional rights under US law, thus the travel ban can not be "unconstitutional" at least in my non lawyer, laymen understanding.
