Why would Argentina need anything from the IMF? I thought all it's economics woes were resolved thanks to this administration
The International Monetary Fund has reached a preliminary agreement with Argentina on a $20 billion bailout package, providing a reprieve to President Javier Milei as he seeks to overturn the country’s old economic order.

SCOTUS knows that detention centers have little to no oversight. Legal representation can sit in a lobby all day for days, to see their established client, just to get turned away at the end with an (oh gosh) shrug and no excuses. Detention centers are rarely held responsible for their actions
