There is some authority that I'm not an expert on for the Secretary of State to kind of declare you to be someone we don't want in this country. But as a general matter, it has always been understood that people who are here legally, even if they are not citizens of the United States, enjoy protections under the First Amendment.

It depends on which authority the government is using. It's going to be a lot harder with the cases that involve the Secretary of State's kind of unilateral authority. But as a general matter, to say that individuals who engaged in pro-Palestinian demonstrations— saying things that you and I, as American citizens, would be allowed to say are somehow no longer entitled to stay in this country.

I think we've seen the lower courts say, whoa, do not send him back. Do not send her back. We have to take a much closer look at this. And so I think they have a reasonable chance of being permitted to stay.

I thought that comment really encapsulated everything that is wrong about the Pam Bondi slash Trump lawyer view of the world. If someone is aggrieved and has standing to sue and an argument, they go to court and they get a hearing. That is not an indication of a constitutional crisis in our system. It's an indication of our constitution working.

You know, if you don't like a court order, there's a solution to it. You appeal it. You don't ignore it. You don't tell the judge he's out of line or he should remove himself from your case or anything else. She's not arguing to the American people. I think she is, like so many people in the Trump administration, arguing to an audience of one.

Well, we've seen a few cases so far where the chief justice has not aligned himself with the other conservatives. We've seen a few cases where either the chief justice or the chief justice joined by Justice Barrett or Justice Barrett by herself, Justice Barrett being one of the three Trump appointees there. But she's turned out to have a quite interesting independent streak there.
