DeficitHawk, give me an instance why a Federal Judge could cancel a deportation. Assuming there's a hearing and the alien is standing in the courtroom.
Keeping in mind Congress has the Constitutional right make a law stating aliens who like Teletubbies are undesirable
1) The law itself violates the constitution.
2) The administrative procedures used to categorize people for deportation fail to meet the due process standard.
sections 2/3 found that the administrative procedures used did not violate due process.
For the 5th time, I am not. You are refusing to look at the sourced material. SCOTUS has upheld Legal Immigrants being deported wholly by Immigration Officials (not Federal Judges) based on conditions set by Congress.
They are appointed officials of the executive branch. "Immigration Judge"... "Presiding Official"... whatever you want to call them.
Immigration officials are government employees, typically law enforcement, who enforce immigration laws and policies. They work for agencies like the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) and the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), and their duties include screening individuals at borders, assessing visa applications, and assisting with deportation proceedings.

No. SCOTUS already said "Immigration Official" not "Federal Judge" is sufficient. The two are NOT the same.
DeficitHawk says
'Immigration judge' = 'Immigration official'.
No.
OK help me understand where our understandings diverge.
Let me be the one to say, no IDGAF what the law says. Biden fucked this whole country over by ignoring and manipulating our norms and fucking over every single American citizen. That’s war against the people. Whatever Trump does to get rid of ALL IMMIGRANT INVADERS I support it.

So, you admit that Executive appointed officials make the primary determination in deportation cases and that is considered enough due process except in extraordinary circumstances were other protections, outside of immigration laws, were potentially violated?
I agree immigration and deportation proceedings are typically administrative, and they are run by the executive branch. An "Immigration Judge" is an executive branch official who presides over such administrative proceedings. "Presiding official" and other terms have similar meaning in this context. They are all executive branch people. These proceedings do not involve federal (Constitution Article III) judges.
Then give me a recipe for Tapioca Pudding, and tell me the distance between Intercourse, PA and Buffalo Breath, WY.
Now explain how Boasberg suddenly came to the conclusion after decades, that deportees need a full judiciary hearing.

Impossible. The Constitution gives total power over immigration and foreign policy to the Congress and Executive. Only "Thwough them to the gwound, very woughly, Centuwion, before deporting them" law could be unconstitutional. But while the "Very Woughly" part could be overturned, whatever standard Brian violated and was being deported on would still stand.

This, I will look into. I did not know that he made this conclusion, and I will have to research it.

I could not find this ruling, can you give me a reference? I only found a ruling on halting AEA deportations, and contempt proceedings for violating that order.
Surely the DHbot can scrape the legal databases to corroborate the reference?
By the way, mere opinion is enough for deportation, right Deficithawk?
But it IS possible for the courts to reject the constitutionality of immigration acts. They are not immune to judicial review on constitutional grounds.
Maybe, just maybe the law is too complex and convoluted that Trump needs to just take action and defend the American homeland?
Oh, you’re opposed to it? Could it be you have an agenda?
Glock, it seems from your comments that you don't agree with the concept of "Follow the law, follow the constitution".
I oppose using war time powers in peace time. Both with respect to Alien Enemies Act, and with respect to suspension of Writ of Habeas Corpus.
We're not in a peace time. We're literally being attacked by foreigners
Deportation is not legally classified as a punishment in most legal systems, including the United States, but rather as an administrative or civil measure.
The U.S. Supreme Court has consistently held that deportation is not punishment. In Fong Yue Ting v. United States (1893), the Court ruled that deportation is an exercise of the government’s sovereign power to control its borders and determine who may remain within them, not a penalty for criminal behavior.
In INS v. Lopez-Mendoza (1984), the Court reaffirmed that deportation proceedings are civil, meaning constitutional protections like the Fifth Amendment’s double jeopardy clause or the Eighth Amendment’s prohibition on cruel and unusual punishment do not apply.
