Bannon Calls on Trump to Suspend Writ of Habeas Corpus
- Steve Bannon urged President Trump to temporarily halt the constitutional protection that ensures detainees can challenge their imprisonment, as a response to recent judicial decisions limiting immigration enforcement.
- Bannon's call follows judicial decisions undermining Trump’s emergency powers and tariffs related to deporting migrants without due process, with the Constitution allowing suspension only in rebellion or invasion.
- Bannon and guest Rogan O'Handley emphasized that suspending habeas corpus targets illegal aliens, not citizens, and claimed the president’s authority is being obstructed by courts and intelligence agencies.
- Stephen Miller confirmed the administration actively considers suspending habeas corpus despite a federal judge finding the US is not under an invasion, which courts define as a military attack causing destruction in specific areas.
- The dispute implies potential escalation in immigration enforcement tactics if habeas corpus is suspended, though courts currently reject using wartime laws absent an organized armed invasion.
