One of President Donald Trump’s picks for the U.S. Supreme Court turned on him Monday, siding with liberal justices in a bid to constrain his ability to deport illegal immigrants suspected by the administration of being affiliated with violent South American gangs.
MAGA conservatives are incensed with Justice Amy Coney Barrett, whom the president nominated and was confirmed for her role during his first administration. Barrett briefly became a right-wing celebrity after she held up her blank notebook during a U.S. Senate confirmation hearing to show that she brought no prepared talking points with her.
Now, she is under fire after conservative commentators online singled her out for attempting to limit President Trump’s ability to deport illegal immigrants under a wartime powers law known as the Alien Enemies Act. Barrett sided with the court’s three liberal justices in a dissent, written by Justice Sonia Sotomayor, stating that the administration’s conduct “poses an extraordinary threat to the rule of law.”
A majority of the justices overturned a lower court’s ruling temporarily halting U.S. flights deporting illegal immigrants to mega-prisons in El Salvador and countries of origin, though the freedom to resume movements comes with new restrictions.
Going forward, all deportees must be afforded their due process, and the ruling leaves the door open to future legal challenges if filed in Texas, where plaintiffs were being held, rather than an improper venue like in the case before the high court.
Rogan O’Handley, known as DC_Draino, wrote about Barrett, “While this Supreme Court victory for Trump allowing him to deport cartels is huge, it was only a 5-4 decision. Guess who joined the 3 liberal Justices to keep cartels here in America? Amy Coney Barrett.”
Catturd, another MAGA influencer who boasts 3.6 million followers on the platform, agreed.
“There’s nobody I have less respect for in the entire country besides Dr. Fauci than Amy Commie Barrett – Trump appointed her and gave her her dream job and complimented her and praised her – and she’s been an ungrateful, backstabbing POS since day one. She got a million dollar Liberal book deal within weeks and her whole goal in Life is to be praised by The New York Times,” they wrote, Newsweek reported.
The post added: “Weak, coward, sellout, fraud. She’s everything that’s wrong with this country. She’s an Absolute disgusting fraud.”
Other supporters of deportation proceedings noted that it was only the women on the court who opposed them.
“All the men on the Court voted the law. All the women, including Amy Coney Barrett, voted their feelings,” wrote conservative commentator Jeff Younger.
Although Barrett only sided with parts of Sotomayor’s dissent, glaring passages offer a window into her opposition to boundless deportations.
“If the District Court were to resolve the question in plaintiffs’ favor, the Government could have appealed to this Court in the ordinary course, and we could have decided it after thorough briefing and oral argument,” Sotomayor wrote in a passage co-signed by Barrett.
“In its rush to decide the issue now, the Court halts the lower court’s work and forces us to decide the matter after mere days of deliberation and without adequate time to weigh the parties’ arguments or the full record of the District Court’s proceedings.”
Noooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!
Great points.
Well she DOES have a hyphenated last name, USUALLY a dead give away with the exception of MTG.
She got them crazy eyes.
The problem is not that “she’s turning against Trump” but that she is not following the constitution. Apparently she got scared when the libs came after her and she is showing what a coward she is. It’s time that conservatives show their disdain for her as the libs did previously.
I agree with Ann Coulter. NO WOMEN. Stop hiring women for these kinds of jobs.
She’s probably going to end up being closer overall to Anthony Kennedy, albeit very different on social issues.
But it is case by case and not an APA violation, etc. So Squish is simply wrong here.
There are an estimated 12 million potential deportees that arrived in the last four years.
The illegals are here because Democrats massively violated immigration laws to bring them here.
No, they do not have right to a hearing. It would take about 700 years to hold all the hearings. That is not going to happen.
"Laws" which restrain the Republicans from undoing harm which the Democrats caused by violating laws cannot stand. The illegals all must leave.
Bingo! You nailed it!
Her sole new purpose in life is to be liked by faux Judge Brown. Anybody recommend a surgeon? She wants her lips sown to Judge Browns azz...
This story is deceiving. Amy Coney Barrett showed her true colors withing a couple of months. Anyone paying attention has had no use for her since then.
Why did Trump trust anything coming from ‘The Federalist Society?”
Women have no business being on the SCOTUS. THEY DON’T “GET IT”!
I like 95% myself.
All 4 of the female SCOTUS judges are DEI hires.
The one Trump “found” looks, all too often, like a swing and a miss.
[pssst, in the future don’t listen to recommendations from career RINO politicians, as Trump did in the Barrett pick]
The point is, we thought he found one last time. Wrong.
