(Via Mediaite)
EISEN: “The swing vote is you had one on each side. It seemed from the discourse from the bench today, Anderson, and the swing vote was silent. Judge Henderson, we'll see where she lands. I think history, precedent, the constitution and human decency all point in one direction. There's now, evidence, in fact, the lawyer for the ACLU, the very capable Lee Gelernt, pointed out, that many, perhaps most a majority of these people, the evidence indicates, are not gang members. Anderson, what have we come to as a country if innocent people are being deported to a dark site in a foreign country without any due process whatsoever? I filed a brief on behalf of almost two dozen conservatives who said this is a violation of conservative ideas going back centuries, limiting government power. So, hopefully the court will see it that way and in either event, it is headed for the Supreme Court.”
