As supporters of illegal immigration have been pointing out for years being present in the US without status is merely a civil matter. Your "due process" in this situation is a case officer determining that you're an illegal alien and putting you on a plane. You don't get a fucking jury trial. This is no different than than if I traveled to another country and the Immigration Officer declined me entry: I don't get to request additional "due process."
And since most illegals get here by overstaying a visa, we literally have paperwork showing that they do not reside here and should have left on X date.
You do. You can say that you are a citizen of the country and have lost your passport. Then they determine whether it's true, and that's the due process.
