Supreme Court rules immigrants can be detained indefinitely

Immigrants can be held by U.S. immigration officials indefinitely without receiving bond hearings, even if they have permanent legal status or are seeking asylum, the Supreme Court ruled Tuesday.

In a 5-3 ruling Tuesday, with Justice Elena Kagan recusing, the court ruled that immigrants do not have the right to periodic bond hearings.

The ruling is a defeat for immigration advocates, who argued that immigrants should not be held for more than six months at a time without such a hearing.

  1. I don't think people realize just how huge this ruling is. The Supreme Court ruled, aliens do not have the same Constitutional Rights as citizens. This is a gigantic crack in the left’s drive to destroy America. Best of all, the Supreme Court ruled America is a “Sovereign Nation,” and allowed to control entry. Take some time and let this decision soak in. If aliens do not have a “right” to bail. Then what other “rights” might aliens not have? I believe this is a crack that can be opened.
