No, the "conservative"/originalism side concerning immigration is defaulting to the plenary power doctrine."Due process does not invest any alien with a right to enter the United States, nor confer on those admitted the right to remain against the national will." Justice Robert H. Jackson as quoted by Justice Scalia in a 1994 case.

You are correct in that Scalia wrote this, but you have take the quote out of context to support your agenda, which makes you no better than CNN. And if we decide to give due process to aliens, then we ought to do so in a way that complies with the 5th Amendment.
