"The ordinary meaning of 'notwithstanding' is 'in spite of,' or 'without prevention or obstruction from or by.'" Congress is clearly and unambiguously saying that the penultimate provision under § 1101(a)(43), as quoted above, controls over the text of §§ 1101(f)(8), 1158(b)(2)(B)(i), 1225, 1226(c)(1)(B), 1227(a)(2)(A)(iii), 1228, 1229b(a), 1231, 1252(a)(2)(C), etc. "In statutes, the any other provision of law 'shows which provision prevails in the event of a clash.'" Courts have long explained that "the phrase 'notwithstanding any other provision of law' expresses the legislative intent to override all contrary statutory and decisional law."
