From Article I, Section 9 (Section 9 are the LIMITATIONS OF CONGRESS):
First, before we continue, there was this sly attempt to block the arguments about the NDAA and suspension of Habeas Corpus, read this excerpt from the NDAA:
Hmm, are military courts under ARticle III (Judicial Branch)? NOPE. Military Courts are Article II Courts, so yes, the President may detain you forever without Habeas Corpus. For more understanding of Article I, II and III Courts read the link below. Also, that is the only time that Habeas Corpus appears in the entire NDAA bill.

Yep, you got trolled by our elected officials.
---------------------------------------
The suspension of Habeas Corpus is unconstitutional for FOUR reasons:
1) Only Congress may authorize the ability of the President to suspend Habeas Corpus.
Habeas Corpus Suspension Act 1863 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
2) Even if Habeas Corpus is suspended, it can only be done during a time of Rebellion or Invasion. Are we in a state of Rebellion? No. Are we being invaded? Maybe, but then that brings us to point number 3 and 4.
3) If we are being Invaded, Congress must first make a Declaration of War (so that the people have direct control over Declarations of War). Our Founding Fathers made it this way so that special things (like Habeas Corpus) that may only be invoked during a Time of War was done only after the PEOPLE GAVE CONSENT TO THAT WAR (Congress = The People).
4) Even if Congress declares war, Invasion = Military Occupation of our Territory. Is there an army occupying US soil? No.
The privilege of the Writ of Habeas Corpus shall not be suspended, unless when in Cases of Rebellion or Invasion the public Safety may require it.
First, before we continue, there was this sly attempt to block the arguments about the NDAA and suspension of Habeas Corpus, read this excerpt from the NDAA:
Nothing in the Authorization for Use of Military Force (Public Law 107-40; 50 U.S.C. 1541 note) or the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2012 (Public Law 112-81) shall be construed to deny the availability of the writ of habeas corpus or to deny any Constitutional rights in a court ordained or established by or under Article III of the Constitution to any person inside the United States who would be entitled to the availability of such writ or to such rights in the absence of such laws.
