Sentra,

I have no problem when there is an emergency situation. Clearly, without a doubt, we are all on the same team and it's not my place to buck the system. However, to operate a country under a constant state of emergency is the height of absurdity.

Since you so clearly brought up illegal immigration as a "talking point", I'll counter with this. We can't have unconstitutional checkpoints, with ongoing interrogation of citizens, under the name of "illegal immigration". Then have that same group (CBP) refuse to accept criminal illegals from local law enforcement. Can't have it both ways. CBP either wants to do the job we've hired them to do, or not.

I had hoped you would counter my points from a few posts up with valid reasoning. You have failed to do so. Claiming SCOTUS "says so" is, unfortunately, not a valid point. SCOTUS has been amazingly wrong for well over 100 years now. The court is politically motivated and there is a very long list of clear Constitutional distortions, often in favor of favored businesses or political friends.

I say we start at the beginning, with the "Plain Language" meaning of the Constitution and the Bill of Rights. Allowing no distortion. Then discuss from there as necessary. Anything less won't work.
