Examining #habeascorpus, protected speech and the constitutional stakes of detaining and deporting noncitizens, #SetonHallLaw Professor Jonathan Hafetz writes in Lawfare, “Allowing that protection to be extinguished…would turn the Suspension Clause on its head.” www.lawfaremedia.org/article/free...
