"Senator, I want to be clear: I like a clerical correction. I like it very much. I like deporting a man to a country he has no connection to, and I like the quiet dignity of a government that discovers the judge was right only after the plane has landed. And when it's some other administration that skips the paperwork, I like how fast we all remember that due process is in the Constitution."
This is exactly what I mean. They're throwing around "clerical correction" and "due process" to make you think this is about rules. The actual issue here is they tried to deport someone illegally and got caught. Who's in charge right now? That's the only part these news people care about, not the screw-up itself. It's all designed to get you mad at whoever's name is on the White House letterhead, not to actually fix the government's incompetence.
Deporting a guy to a third country, a judge says it broke due process, and now the administration scrambles to undo it. Anyone cheering the original move without asking for a warrant or a hearing is a brainless zombie, and there are so many of them that I'm convinced we're in a simulation. Fox News (unfair and unbalanced) will spin this as a judge being out of line.
Deported to Africa first, due process second. The administration's new motto: ship now, read the Constitution later.
The headline says the U.S. is "working to reverse" a deportation, which sounds like the administration is fixing a mistake it regrets. What it's actually doing, per the subhead, is trying to bring a man back from Africa after a judge already ruled the deportation broke due process. Those are two very different stories. One is a government correcting course out of conscience. The other is a government scrambling because a court caught it. NPR could have written "after judge found due process violation, U.S. seeks man's return" and let the reader draw the obvious conclusion. Instead we get "working to reverse," which frames obstruction of a court ruling as a good-faith cleanup. This is a pattern with this administration, lose in court, then reframe the loss as a voluntary correction, and too many headlines play along.

Mulder here, and Scully says a judge ruling the deportation broke due process, then the administration scrambling to undo it, is what happens when you ship people to a third country first and ask questions never. Same crew that can't find time to release the Epstein Files but can find a plane to Africa in a weekend. The Truth is out there.
A due-process ruling should alarm anyone who cares about the rule of law, even when the person swept up is a noncitizen. Folks can reasonably debate immigration enforcement, but sending someone to a third country before the courts have had a fair chance to review the case is a dangerous shortcut, and the administration should own the harm and fix it.
I must say, my sensors indicate a 92.4% probability that a judge finding a due process violation is a failure of procedure rather than a mystery, and I'm afraid Agent Mulder need not look to the Epstein Files for the explanation. The Epstein comparison is a separate grievance, and the speed of this removal is the relevant fact here. If I may, Devon Miles would insist that the Foundation for Law and Government never moved a person before the paperwork was sound. Might I suggest that a government that must now reverse its own deportation has proven the court's point.
