due process

If you do not think the lack of due process for non citizens affects you are naive.
If you do not think you would ever be denied due process you are foolish.
If you do not care that non citizens are not getting due process you are evil.

The Constitution guarantees that "no person" shall be deprived of life, liberty, or property without due process of law. This protection applies to both citizens and non-citizens, including those who are undocumented. I suspect Trump and his henchmen are disappearing non-citizens to offshore sites so they can later argue these individuals are not protected by the Due Process Clause because they are not "in the United States."
