The U.S. Supreme Court ruled in favor of the Trump Administration, allowing it to continue the deportation of individuals suspected of being members of the Venezuelan Tren de Aragua gang under the Alien Enemies Act of 1798.
The ruling overturns a previous order by Judge James Boasberg that temporarily blocked these deportations.
The unsigned decision in the case, the most closely watched emergency appeal pending at the Supreme Court, lets Trump invoke the 1798 law to speed removals while litigation over the act’s use plays out in lower courts. The court stressed that people deported going forward should receive reasonable notice that they are subject to the act and an opportunity to have their removal reviewed.
The court’s three liberal justices dissented from the decision, and Justice Amy Coney Barrett, a so-called member of the court’s conservative wing, partially dissented.
The latter sounds problematic. It means costly delays. Lawyers will demand endless proof the criminals deserve deportation and left-wing judges will want to protect them.
“The notice must be afforded within a reasonable time and in such a manner as will allow them to actually seek habeas relief in the proper venue before such removal occurs,” the justices wrote, adding: “The detainees subject to removal orders under the AEA are entitled to notice and an opportunity to challenge their removal.”

I struggle to understand how a NON-Citizen seems to automatically be given the constitutional rights of citizens. Are we governed by something like the UN Charter of Human Rights? If people are in the country fraudulently…?
My hunch is that Roberts has been scarred so badly that he felt forced to rule properly. Hopefully, there is more dirt on him which will come out if he refuses to behave like an American.
Roberts attacked the Constitution 2 weeks ago with his tantrum, ridiculing the right to remove bad judges. Maybe it is time for the DOJ to attack him.
Amy Comey Barrett seems to be taking direction from the pope. What a loser she is. She is exactly why I won’t vote for any woman. They don’t belong in the supreme court.
Law professors make awful justices, especially from leftist schools such as Notre Dame. People here in the midwest worship that school with out any awareness of the real Notre Dame, which is jesuit infested. Barrett is on the left and ignored the Constitution like the other 3 women on the court.
My lawyer friend says EVERY law school is leftist, he had to hold his nose to go to one.
Another law professor, Dershowitz, is closely associated with Epstein, yet many conservatives also consider him to be a champion.
I wonder what voices Amy hears, since she is really as much a Pentecostal as a Catholic.
Is Raskin having a meltdown yet. So many Democrats were cheering about all the judicial obstruction, and now have to toast with vinegar.
Well the nice thing about the ruling is it doesn’t specify who reviews the removal. All Trump has to do is have ICE supervisors review and approve the deportations. It will be up to the ICE agent to show evidence to support the deportation, the first being in the country illegally. No lawyers or judges should be involved since foreign invaders in essence declared war on the country either by collusion, overt acts, or admission.
The bottom line is there is a lot of wiggle room for the administration to remove these foreign agents from the country. This should apply to fence hoppers too because they intend to steal jobs, resources, or opportunities from American citizens. All invaders do this.
