Well, yes, but the AF were largely outvoted at the Constitutional Convention.
Im also real sick of “the bill of rights mandates (whatever political platform I’m on today)”. When my side wins election, it’s a principle of democratic governance. When my side loses, it’s about minimum liberal rights. Even Scott succumbs to this in latest ACX.

I was expecting something dumb, but that's just... wow.
That's pretty much par the course for the current administration, so really not that surprising (eg. recall the formula used to calculate the initial tariffs).

This is one of those situations where one group thinks that because he has scammed the system, and done so quite successfully, for such a long time that we should be more lenient than with a new arrival. The other group thinks that scamming the system for a long time, and especially when occupying a position of social responsibility, makes the crime worse than if he was caught jumping the fence just yesterday.
The US doesn't make people leaving the country by air get a stamp, but flight (and ship) manifests are tracked for that sort of thing, I understand.
Needing permission to leave sounds a lot like the Berlin Wall, but I think makes sense for the EU combined area.
