Do these apply to all people in the USA or only citizens?
The word “persons” applies to everyone.
That seems to be a subject of debate but the Supreme Court has ruled in the past that the bill of rights applies to anyone in the US, not just citizens.
A subject of debate for fascists
Oh of course. The current SCOTUS has shown they are happy to be a tool for fascism, that’s the only reason they are taking cases that have been considered “settled law” for decades.
