The entire Bill of Rights (the first 10 amendments) applies to everyone, not just citizens. The Bill of Rights never mentions citizens. It was formulated as a set of restrictions on what the federal government is allowed to do. The government shall not censor opinions. The government shall not establish a national religion. The government shall not jail anyone without due process. And so on. The Bill of Rights doesn't contain any clause like, "... except for non-citizens." What Trump is trying to do flies in the face of more than two centuries of Constitutional practice. |
