I'll take that as a concession that you cannot support your previous claim. It wouldn't be the first time either.

My "claim" is amply supported. The president has plenty of emergency power to fight rebellion and insurection.

Refute it.

But NOT to unilaterally suspend habeas corpus. You stated "The Court has ruled, in several cases, that the president -can- suspend the Writ."

Quote those cases - any one of them. Otherwise I'll continue to take it as a concession that you don't have anything.
