They're using the excuse that he's not a citizen. Slippery slope.

They have already said they want to send US citizens there too.

They simply have to not validate you are a US citizen, no rights for anyone means no rights for everyone.
Habeus corpus is only suspended in war. Not a citizen doesn’t mean Russia can jail any American connecting in Moscow because they had a bad haircut.
It's not a slippery slope, it's blatantly unconstitutional already.
