    They always had. The US border has this special exemption to the constitution that some of the normal protections don’t apply.

    If you are a citizen, they (legally speaking) can’t deny you entry, but can jail (detain) you for 48 hours and seize all your belongings, and put your on a no-fly list if they wanted to.

    If you are not a citizen, they could deny you entry on top of all that.

    This was always the case in previous administrations, its just that in previous administration, they weren’t this insane.
