Sure it does. Say for instance congress pass a law that says they can detain indefinitely if you are declared a drug dealer as it is a threat to national security even if you are an American citizen. The courts have now ability to determine whether something constitutional and the president agrees. Now I can’t sue saying my constitutional rights are be violated because the courts can only settle the dispute based on the law as written. There fore indefinite jail it is.
