Presidents, Autocrats, and Immigration Bans

The U.S. is banning immigrants! Can the President really do that? In this introduction to their podcast, "Presidents, Autocrats, and Immigration Bans," our hosts Tejas Shah and Kalpana Peddibhotla examine the President's wide-ranging authority to bar immigrants and examine a legitimate question in light of President's Trump's actions between 2016 and 2020 - is the President a King and does he have absolute authority over U.S. immigration?  This podcast episode includes the words of former Presidents Carter and Reagan, Trump the Presidential candidate, past and present Supreme Court justices, and an examination of hugely consequential Supreme Court decisions. If you like what you hear, please rate and subscribe!
