Summary
June 23 (Reuters) - The U.S. Supreme Court cleared the way on Monday for President Donald Trump's administration to resume deporting migrants to countries other than their own without offering them a chance to show the harms they could face, handing him another victory in his aggressive pursuit of mass deportations.
In an action that prompted a sharp dissent from its three liberal justices, the court granted the administration's request to lift a judicial order requiring that migrants set for deportation to so-called "third countries" get a "meaningful opportunity" to tell U.S. officials they are at risk of torture at their new destination, while a legal challenge plays out.

Boston-based U.S. District Judge Brian Murphy had issued the order on April 18.
The Supreme Court's brief order was unsigned and offered no reasoning, as is common when it decides emergency requests. The court has a 6-3 conservative majority.
Justice Sonia Sotomayor, joined by the two other liberal justices, called the decision a "gross abuse" of the court's power.
"Apparently, the court finds the idea that thousands will suffer violence in far-flung locales more palatable than the remote possibility that a district court exceeded its remedial powers when it ordered the government to provide notice and process to which the plaintiffs are constitutionally and statutorily entitled," Sotomayor wrote.
Sotomayor called the court's action "as incomprehensible as it is inexcusable."
Murphy had found that the administration's policy of "executing third-country removals without providing notice and a meaningful opportunity to present fear-based claims" likely violates the U.S. Constitution's due process protections...

Thank you very much and God bless you.
They are "illegal alien invaders."
“Fire up the deportation planes,” Department of Homeland Security assistant secretary Tricia McLaughlin wrote on X.
> court has a 6-3 conservative majority.
No. It has 3 conservatives, 3 wobbly swing votes and 3 leftists.
"So you don't want to go back to Central America? No problem. South Sudan it is."
Has a district court judge overturned the Supreme Court decision yet?
(Has a district court judge overturned the Supreme Court decision yet?)
It won’t be long!
The administration told the Supreme Court that its third-country policy already complied with due process and is critical for removing migrants who commit crimes because their countries of origin are often unwilling to take them back. It said that all the South Sudan-destined migrants had committed "heinous crimes" in the United States including murder, arson and armed robbery.
If such are indeed t all the South Sudan-destined migrants had committed "heinous crimes" i and (thus) countries of origin are often unwilling to take them back, then such are being sentenced to a prison. The issue here is due process, for which a speedy trial could be arranged.
GEntlemen, start your engines!
Every zoo has a monkey house cage. Put them in there and let them sling their crap at the gringos.
And suddenly every illegal in the US will mysteriously be from “South Sudan”.
But thousands of Americans suffering violence from illegals at home is fine with the democrats/leftists.
Steve Miller said briefly on Hannity Monday night that the Boston judge has decided to defy the SCOTUS ruling and that “fireworks” loomed Tuesday
What a wonderful opportunity for Rocket Man!
THIS will cause a lot of self deports... good deal!!
Yep.
Miller says to expect “fireworks” tomorrow when the Trump admin holds a Boston judge accountable for defying the Supreme Court.
Miller’s comment comes after the Supreme Court voted to allow the Trump admin to send illegals to countries other than their homelands.
“A little bit of breaking news is that the district court judge in Boston has said he’s going to defy the Supreme Court’s ruling.”
“So expect fireworks tomorrow when we hold this judge accountable for refusing to obey the Supreme Court.”
