on u.s. soil. there was some discussion surrounding this suggesting that ex parte might respond to this. you don t need to respond to this, but i think it s a point that needs to be mentioned. justice scalia mentioned in his dissent in homdy that ex parte curran was not this court s finest hour. in fact, what happened was the case was argued, it was decided the next day. the saboteurs were taken out and executed the next week. then the opinion itself was issued many months later. so, again, i m not asking you to opine on the ongoing validity of ex parte current, but the point is you seem to agree that congress certainly has the authority to protect liberty, notwithstanding the possibility that the supreme court might not step in?
