Obviously, a huge victory for the migrants here and a major defeat for Trump’s lawless effort to rush out a rendition flight before the courts could act.
But also—potentially a massive signal from the Supreme Court that it is finally prepared to go toe to toe with Trump to halt AEA deportations.

BREAKING: SCOTUS orders the government not to remove anyone from the United States under Trump’s Alien Enemies Act proclamation who is a part of the potential class in the Northern District of Texas case until further order of the court.
Only Thomas and Alito note their dissent.

The only plausible reason for the Supreme Court to rush out its order at 1 a.m. is that a majority of justices refused to trust the Trump administration's promise that it wouldn't secretly deport migrants without due process.
That alone marks a hugely consequential shift.

The existential national crucible that Donald Trump has brought to the fore with his experiment in disappearing people to a torture gulag in El Salvador presents us with one of the starkest test of values and the constitution our country has ever faced. www.doomsdayscenario.co/p/has-americ...
Has America Reached the End of the Road?

1/4. On the White House’s theory, if they abduct you, get you on a helicopter, get to international waters, shoot you in the head, and drop your corpse into the ocean, that is legal, because it is the conduct of foreign affairs.

People need to be crystal clear about something: The requirement that the government ANSWER to a court on the legal basis for detaining someone is literally the core liberty right (habeas corpus). If the government says they don’t have to do that bc “national security,” YOU can be disappeared.

Look, you can't reduce the price of eggs without destroying the constitution, ripping innocent people from their homes if Trump doesn't like them, imprisoning and torturing them without any recourse to the law.
Mind you, it seems Trump can't even reduce the price of eggs WITH all those powers.

What’s really wild, though, is the way the MAGA cult of personality replicates this dynamic at the institutional level. These inanities bubble up out of Trump’s brain and the GOP must embrace them as Great Leader’s dogma, or else it might have to admit it’s in the thrall of a deranged maniac

You can see, in real time, constantly, Trump spouting some half-formed nub of an idea, and then when it engenders controversy, gradually transforming that idea into an overriding policy directive, because the alternative is to admit error, which is psychologically impossible for him

Since Congress’s allotted funds have already been improperly unallocated, U.S. citizens are questioning whether they are legally required to continue paying federal taxes.

Clearly US must recuse itself from negotiations as Trump is comprised. The interests of the aggressor in a war should not be taken up by the third party. Normalizing the invasion of sovereign nations is how WW3 starts. Threatening Canada and Greenland with being American states is how WW3 starts.

It’s nice how they’ve replicated the middle school dynamic of the insecure bully and his sniveling sidekick picking on someone surrounded by a circle of scared little boys who also try to talk shit so the bully doesn’t come after them.
