It's a nice thought, but these "aliens" aren't being admitted for travel, work or purposes of leisure or pleasure. In fact, they aren't being "admitted" at all. They are under physical control of the US Federal Government. Think Manual Noriega. He was brought to the US the very sam way.

Now, if they were to be released for some reason - as in an order from a US federal district judge as an example - then Title 8 § 1182, would be germane. But, I believe even then, certain waivers can be granted by the executive branch. As an example, if someone would be a cooperating witness, they could theoretically be granted a visa, even if prior actions would preclude their admission.

Ya know, I see a lot of guys with them "terrorist hunting licenses" in their pickup's back window.
