Will the Supreme Court Succumb to Democratic Party Pressure?
American Thinker ^ | 19 May, 2025 | Ed Brodow

Posted on 05/19/2025 4:12:27 AM PDT by MtnClimber

Voters in 2024 gave Trump a mandate to execute his agenda. At the top of that agenda is the deportation of millions of people who entered the country illegally but were enabled by what amounted to treason by the Biden administration. Many of these illegal aliens present significant threats to national security and public safety. Democrats are using the court system to block Trump from doing a job that needs to be done.

Democrats wanting to throw a monkey wrench into Trump’s agenda have been able to “forum shop” by seeking out sympathetic district court judges most likely to block the president’s actions. By issuing nationwide injunctions against Trump’s executive orders, these rogue judges have effectively shut down the executive branch of the federal government. “Since Trump took office,” said Texas rep. August Pfluger, “activist judges in district courts have aggressively blocked his executive actions. The fact that an unelected lower court judge can micromanage the commander-in-chief should trouble every single American.”

Does President Trump have the authority to deport people who entered the country illegally? Are illegals entitled to due process when they are deported, and if so, what does that mean? Do district judges have the power to issue nationwide injunctions stopping presidential executive orders?

Common sense dictates that the answer to the first question is yes, and the answer to the third question is no. The answer to the second question is more complicated. If due process means giving illegals a court appearance before a judge, the answer should be no. It would take hundreds of years to get millions of illegals into court. The rules of due process must be flexible if millions of illegals can be deported quickly.

“People who are enemies of the United States don’t have the same level of due process,”

The left is trying to stop everything that President Trump is trying to accomplish.

Send as many as possible MS13 and TDAs to the Judges zip codes as possible. Bus loads should be unloaded ASAP. Let the ruling class live by their ridiculous words. Hear that Amy?

Suspend Habeus Corpus for any and all illegals. That is how you manage the issue.

“They have.”

SCOTUS when they passed on the outcome of the 2020 election comes to mind.

There is a huge difference between being “pressured” and actually participating in an organized conspiracy.

Yes.

One of my proposed reforms is to move the Supreme Court to Kansas City.

Then you won't see Justices Kavanaugh and Roberts trying to get invited to cocktail parties inside the Beltway.

When it’s established that an individual is in the United States illegally, due process has been rendered. Nothing beyond that should be required. Doing so akin to vetting an assailant while he’s trying to kill you.

Those already deported should still be able to seek justice…. 🤔🤔🤔 Maybe we should send some judges down there to set up a court for a “local” trial.

The Supremes will cave to the left. Sadly I think Trump looses the argument on the baby issue. The way “Amy”, the Chief, and the other loser questioned, plus the three liberals, Trump loses 7-2 or 6-3. He could of course get lucky and win 5-4, but I doubt it. The Supreme court IS NOT a conservative court. They sometimes vote conservative, but not usually. They will screw up this decision and this gives every illegal who is pregnant, more ammo to try to get into America.

A court comprised of 7 women and 2 men.

Where is it that bears defecate, again? Is it that same place where it's debatable whether a sound is made if a tree falls and there's nobody there to hear it?

I think the answer vis-a-vis the question about SCOTUS capitulating is a resounding 'Well, DUH...' 🙄

Not a lawyer, but I don’t see how a district judge can wield such power. By whom was that power given? It seems anything hizonner ruled would apply to his district and not nationwide.
