Then this hinges on the designation of TdA as a terrorist org. The government has had a lot of leeway to handle terrorists for some 20 years now.

No, it doesn't. Terrorism is a crime, and people that commit terrorism are criminals - and people who are accused of being terrorists or being part of a terrorist organization are still entitled to due process to dispute those accusations. Declaring an organization to be a terrorist org doesn't excuse or immunize the government from providing due process, or having the specific accusations they level at individuals subject to judicial review. The designation of the organization as a terrorist group doesn't suddenly remove everything the Administration does thereafter from legitimate review.
