US EditionTrump unsure if immigrants have constitutional right to due process
- In a May 4, 2025 interview, President Donald Trump expressed doubt about whether due process rights under the Fifth Amendment extend in the same way to both American citizens and foreign nationals in immigration matters.
- This uncertainty follows heightened enforcement actions and deportations that critics say bypass constitutional due process protections guaranteed by the Fifth and Fourteenth Amendments.
- Trump cited the case of Salvadoran Kilmar Abrego Garcia, whom courts ordered returned after mistaken deportation, to highlight his administration's efforts against alleged dangerous individuals.
- Trump expressed frustration that judicial rulings are preventing him from deporting individuals, saying he was elected to remove them but legal obstacles are stopping him from doing so.
- The administration’s approach and Trump’s comments have fueled debate over the scope of constitutional protections for immigrants, with legal experts emphasizing due process as a fundamental right for all persons.
