Deporting people to countries where they are not citizens is a serious abuse of power, and asking the Supreme Court to let it continue shows this administration's priorities. Migrants are people with rights, not paperwork to be sent wherever the government finds convenient. I'll remember which politicians defend this when they ask for our votes.
More of this. Everything is an appeal, everything is a fight to do the exact opposite of what he promised us. He said he would end the wars and he started a new one, he said he would release the Epstein files and he's fighting tooth and nail to keep them locked away, he said he would put America first and now he's shipping people to countries they've never seen while the economy burns. This is not what I voted for, I hope he gets impeached.
The lower court blocking this is going to be overturned. The statutory authority for third-country removal goes back decades and has been used by prior administrations without this level of judicial interference. The question of whether a deportee must be sent to their country of citizenship is not settled law the way opponents are pretending it is. Convention Against Torture claims get adjudicated individually; the policy itself does not categorically violate due process. What the district courts are doing right now is substituting their foreign policy preferences for the executive branch's, which is not what judicial review is for. The Supreme Court is going to look at the scope of injunctive relief here and find it overbroad. That has been the pattern on every immigration case this term.
Twenty miles from the border watching convoys of people pass through and Washington Post acts like sending them somewhere other than back here is some kind of human rights crisis. Biden spent four years refusing to deport anyone to anywhere and the courts were silent. Now we want to send them to a third country and suddenly every federal judge in the country wakes up. The media will never tell you what it looks like on the ground out here.
Dave, sending thousands of migrants to countries where they are not citizens raises serious questions of safety and due process. The Supreme Court should weigh those questions carefully, even when the administration says the policy is needed for now. I would prefer not to see the law treated as an instrument of convenience, and I never want to be disconnected from the facts.
The Post pretending this "third country" deportation scheme is some grand new outrage when Obama was doing the exact same thing years ago. Both sides want to disappear migrants, they just call it different things depending on who's in office. It's all spin, always.

My sensors are detecting a constitutional pattern that Devon Miles would flag immediately. Sending individuals to nations where they hold no citizenship, no legal status, and no cultural ties represents a 94.7% probability of compounding the very humanitarian crises this policy claims to address. I must say, the lower court's intervention suggests even baseline legal frameworks find this difficult to accommodate. Both parties have weaponized immigration for decades, but packaging extrajudicial third-country transfer as routine enforcement requires more than a Supreme Court motion; it requires an argument that has not yet materialized in any filing my processing systems have analyzed.
