Trump Administration Explores Suspending Habeas Corpus: Legal Experts React

Trump Administration Mulls Ending Habeas Corpus: Legal Experts Weigh In Washington, D.C. - The Trump administration is reportedly considering the suspension of Habeas Corpus, a cornerstone of American legal rights. White House Deputy Chief of Staff Stephen Miller indicated that this action is being actively explored, citing a constitutional provision allowing suspension during times of invasion. "The Constitution is clear...that the privilege of the writ of habeas corpus could be suspended in time of invasion," Miller stated. However, this assertion is disputed by legal experts. Steve Vladeck, a Georgetown University Law Center professor, points to a "near-universal" legal consensus that only Congress holds the power to suspend Habeas Corpus. Vladeck asserts that unilateral presidential suspensions would be unconstitutional. The potential implications of this move are far-reaching and raise crucial questions about the balance of power and the protection of individual liberties.
