Today at SCOTUS, maybe the strangest oral arg I've ever heard.
A fresh green card holder was charged with a serious crime & left the country, so upon return was "paroled" into the US rather than allowed normal entry, which allows for easier *deportation* proceedings pending *criminal* due process (& subsequently the green card holder was convicted).
The law expressly says this "paroling" is fine if the green card holder *committed* such a crime, even if there was no conviction; but the libs argue that, if there wasn't yet a conviction or confession, the immigration agents at the airport shouldn't have been able to grant "parole" rather than free admission unless they determined that such a crime was committed by convening some kind of completely unspecified official proceedings at the airport, without being able to detain the traveler for any length of time (so non-lawyers would apparently have to wing a case without calling any witnesses or anything like that & also call up an immigration judge without even being able to pull the traveler aside?).
So eg the first two pics here are just part of an astounding line of questioning by Sotomayor, where she seems to believe that the guy who stamps your passport should have to call up an immigration judge to argue a case immediately if he sees a charge & wants to make use of this "parole" power; & the second two pics here are the lawyer for the noncitizen arguing that even if immigration agents get warned by foreign police that a green card holder is flying in after just having carried out a terrorist attack then there would still be no immigration authority to detain them pending investigation of this.
There are plenty of other equally odd bits: there are at least 3 moments where justices snap at Jackson that she's interrupting them, & about halfway thru the args the noncitizen's lawyer seems to realize that things are going poorly & so starts claiming that the Trump admin should lose by default for transparently made up reasons which leads to all the lib justices pretending to agree & all the con justices acting confused & a bit miffed ("actually the govt conceded on burden of proof by never even briefing on this" "what are you talking about?
This whole case is explicitly about both sides arguing over burden of proof" "well we say there should be an additional clear & convincing evidence standard at the border & they say there shouldn't be bc that should happen at actual immigration court proceedings, so they failed to argue with us over what happens at the border, so we win" "what are you talking about that's obviously not true" "actually Sotomayor & Jackson think it might be true" etc).
Anyway just remember that if Hillary had won, we'd have 6 justices issuing decisions which say that airports have to have special extra layers of immigration court, where immigration agents aren't even allowed to gather evidence or call witnesses, before they can even put probationary conditions on entry for noncitizens with legal papers who committed potentially disqualifying serious crimes
