I believe due process extends to non-citizens as well.
For example, if a foreign tourist is caught shoplifting. They would have due process rights to determine if they should be prosecuted or not.
The Alien and Sedition Acts of 1798 were 4 acts passed by our Founding Fathers generation, the same guys that wrote the Constitution, that gave explicit wartime powers ("Commander-in-Chief of our military powers") to the president to take immediate action against invaders and enemies, without needing to go to courts for approval or granting due process rights.
Article II, Section I: "The executive Power shall be vested in a President of the United States of America"
Article II, Section II: "The President shall be Commander in Chief of the Army and Navy of the United States, and of the Militia of the several States"
The role of the Executive and the Commander-in-Chief are separate roles, both held by the same person, with each role having different powers.
The question is,
When President Trump authorized the military to remove enemy terrorists of the United States and sent them to El Salvador, did he authorize that action as President or as Commander-in-Chief?
