You entirely missed Article 1 Section 9. There the president has the power to act unilaterally in such extreme times. He doesn't need to consult the Supreme court to take the actions granted him under this article. And notice also it say's ''may require it.

Article 1 refers to the powers of Congress. You might consider what Alexander Hamilton and John Jay, two of the three authors of the Federalist Papers that explained the Constitution to the people, signed a statement saying that this was what the Constitution meant with respect to habeas corpus:

That every person restrained of his liberty is entitled to an inquiry into the lawfulness of such restraint, and to a removal thereof if unlawful; and that such inquiry or removal ought not to be denied or delayed, except when, on account of public danger, the Congress shall suspend the privilege of the writ of habeas corpus.

But we are to believe that you know more than Hamilton and Jay about what the Constitution means.
