A top adviser to the director of national #intelligence [#DNI] ordered a senior analyst to redo an assessment of the relationship between #Venezuela’s govt & a gang after intelligence findings undercut #Trump’s justification for deporting immigrants, acc/to ofcls.
Trump’s use of a wartime #law to send #Venezuelan immigrants to a brutal prison in #ElSalvador without #DueProcess relies on a claim that US intelligence agencies think is wrong.
All that said, this does nothing to help the people who were already rendered to #ElSalvador illegally by the #Trump admin. That’s a separate case. Which is why this issue should be addressed in a #ClassAction as
argued yesterday before #SCOTUS.
Notably, #Kavanaugh issued a concurring opinion saying,
“I would prefer not to remand to the lower courts & further put off this Court’s final resolution of the critical legal issues. Rather,… I would grant certiorari, order prompt briefing, hold oral argument soon thereafter, and then resolve the legal issues.”
Once the #5thCircuit rules, this almost certainly goes straight back to #SCOTUS for a ruling on the AEA proclamation itself.
I have no doubt the 5th Circuit will say #Trump’s invocation of the #AlienEnemiesAct is legal even though there is no war, invasion or incursion.
I also thoroughly expect the Trump admin to try to continue #deportations without #DueProcess.
#SCOTUS sets up how the litigation will proceed.
The #Trump admin is BARRED from deporting people held in WDTX under the #AlienEnemiesAct pending #SupremeCourt review. The #5thCircuit is ordered to rule not just on #DueProcess, but ALSO on the #underlying merits of the #AEA proclamation.
The #SCOTUS majority ALSO preemptively makes clear (in response to #Alito's written #dissent), that the government cannot get around #ClassAction treatment by agreeing to give notice to the class plaintiffs.
In rejecting jurisdictional arguments raised by the dissent, they bolster the lawsuits challenging the #AlienEnemiesAct.
#SCOTUS recites the facts in detail, making clear that the government was about to deport hundreds of people to #ElSalvador without ANY real opportunity to file #HabeasCorpus lawsuits in challenge, a direct violation of their previous order - & mentions #KilmarAbregoGarcia.
![We understood the Government to assert the right to remove the detainees as soon as midnight central time on April 19. The Government addressed the detainees' allegations on April 18 only at an evening hearing before the District Court for the District of Columbia, where the detainees had separately sought relief. The Government guaranteed that no putative class members would be removed that day. Tr. of Proceedings in J. G. G. v. Trump, No. 25-cv-766, ECF Doc. 93, p. 9. But it further represented that, in its view, removal of putative class members as soon as the next day "would be consistent with" its due process obligations, and it "reserve[d] the right" to take such action. Id., at 26; see id., at 16 (explanation by the court that "tomorrow .. starts at 12:01 a.m."). Evidence now in the record (although not all before us on April 18) suggests that the Government had in fact taken steps on the afternoon of April 18 toward removing detainees under the AEA-including transporting them from their detention facility to an airport and later returning them to the facility. See Supp. App. to Reply 1a-5a. Had the detainees been removed from the United States to the custody of a foreign sovereign on April 19, the Government may have argued, as it has previously argued, that no U. S. court had jurisdiction to order relief. See Application To Vacate Injunction in Noem v. Abrego Garcia, No. 24A949 (Apr. 7, 2025), pp. 11-20.](https://s3.masto.ai/media_attachments/files/114/519/441/979/502/714/original/9f88393c7df4c057.png "We understood the Government to assert the right to remove the detainees as soon as midnight central time on April 19.

#SCOTUS also rebukes Judge Hendrix in the Western District of #Texas & the ultra-conservative #FifthCircuit for refusing to act on the #ACLU's emergency request, emphasizing that the facts on the ground showed that planes were set to take off — thus making Judge Hendrix' failure to act an appealable order.
#SCOTUS makes clear AGAIN that the #Trump admin cannot just throw people onto planes with little to no notice. Those subject to the #AlienEnemiesAct MUST be given time to contact a lawyer, file a #habeas lawsuit, & pursue the case. IOW #DueProcess.
Anything less is illegal.
#SCOTUS issues a direct rebuke to the #Trump admin's practice of ushering people onto planes: "Under these circumstances, notice roughly 24 hours before removal, devoid of information about how to exercise due process rights to contest that removal, surely does not pass muster."

#SCOTUS maintains block on #Trump #deportations under wartime #law #AlienEnemiesAct
The US #SupremeCourt on Friday kept in place its block on Trump's deportations of #Venezuelan migrants under a 1798 law historically used only in wartime after their lawyers said the government was set to remove the men without #judicial review in #violation of a prior #CourtOrder by the justices.

Rossman: A life is in the balance. We have #DueProcess in the balance. And there's the question of the role of the #judiciary. In a speech last week, Justice Roberts said the judiciary is a #CoEqualBranch w/ power to strike down obviously unlawful acts of the #president or #congress.
Here we now have your honor’s order that went all the way to #SCOTUS. And the question is whether the govt has complied w/an order of the #SupremeCourt....that couldn't be more important.

Sen. #ChrisMurphy Calls Out #PuppyKillerNoem's Record in Committee Showdown
It's like a fed up parent calling out a 4 year old.
This is sadistically infantile and barbaric. This is U.S. Nazi MAGA Party, everybody!

#KristiNoem Pitching 'Survivor'-Esque Show with #Immigrants Fighting for #Citizenship

Meanwhile, in #Elizabeth, #NewJersey, dumb dumb Democrats are planning a #GEOGroup concentrationcamp in #NJ. There was protest yesterday.
#Justice should not be afforded only to some & without a full & fair day in court. We need a process & #SCOTUS must reject the govt's emergency request for a stay that would lead to mass #deportation & #chaos.
This isn’t the 1st time they have tried to skip over the lower courts. #DOJ has requested #SCOTUS halt a lower court’s decision 14X in 16 weeks. In comparison, under both Bush & Obama admins (a total of 16 years), there were only 8 such requests to SCOTUS.
The stakes are high. These are attacks on tax-paying #immigrants who have been in the #US for years w/the govt's explicit permission.
"Trump has created a permanent crisis state. Yet the real crisis began when tens of millions of Americans made the mistake of putting a fascist back in office after his first attempt to overthrow the government."

"The president is declaring emergencies on everything from an 'invasion' of immigrants to a mythical shortage of fossil fuel production. But it’s all just a ploy for him to act like a Roman emperor. …
Crises lend themselves to authoritarian rule, and often in the aftermath it’s extraordinarily difficult to return to republican government."
