Piggy and Creep (Trump and Miller) Wanted To Suspend Habeas Corpus

Harry Litman

We learned earlier this week that we narrowly averted an effort by Trump and Stephen Miller to suspend habeas corpus.

Miller’s brainstorm was utterly tyrannical and anti-constitutional. More on that below.

Miller was reacting to the Supreme Court’s April 2025 ruling in the Alien Enemies Act cases, which held that the detainees were entitled to challenge their detentions in court via habeas corpus before being expelled.

That bare process was too much for Miller, the deputy chief of staff and, by all accounts, the mastermind behind the deportation campaign.
