The Supreme Court on Monday lifted a pair of orders by a federal judge in Washington, D.C., that had barred the government from removing noncitizens who are designated as members of a Venezuelan gang under a March 15 executive order issued by President Donald Trump.
… In an unsigned opinion on Monday evening, five of the court’s conservative justices – Chief Justice John Roberts and Justices Clarence Thomas, Samuel Alito, Neil Gorsuch, and Brett Kavanaugh – indicated that they would “not reach” the plaintiffs’ arguments regarding the application of the AEA to them. Instead, the majority explained, because the relief that they are seeking “necessarily” suggests that their confinement in immigration custody and removal under the AEA is invalid, they must bring their claims as habeas corpus claims – that is, a challenge to the legality of their detention.
The only place that such claims can be brought, … is the judicial district where a prisoner is being detained. Because the plaintiffs in this case are now in Texas, rather than in Washington, D.C., the majority concluded, their case cannot be brought in Washington.
… the plaintiffs, as well as others who may be detained or removed under the AEA, are entitled to be notified “that they are subject to removal under the Act.” Moreover, the court added, addressing an argument made by lawyers for the plaintiffs during oral arguments in the lower courts, the government must provide that notice “within a reasonable time and in such a manner as will allow them to actually seek habeas relief … before such removal occurs.”
Kavanaugh wrote a brief concurring opinion in which he emphasized that “the Court’s disagreement is not over whether the detainees receive judicial review … The only question,” he concluded “is where that judicial review should occur.”

By default you are gone.
Those four females... yeesh.
It doesn’t remotely solve the problem of a single District Court Judge issuing nationwide orders. An abomination especially since any sleazy local attorney with a $5mm contribution can buy an appointment.
The Border is Closed.
If you illegally came through the Border whilst BiXiden was not in charge, best to self deport.
That cutie, Noem, has provided an app for your BiXiden phone to help you.
Get on with it while it is easy.
I think it does - EACH individual person has to file a Claim in Texas - doing more research but I believe the nationwide injunction is dead
The nauseating reaction I have when the media fawns over any woman getting into a position of power and authority and we see the results of these women justices on the Supreme Court.
Conehead needs to resign.
Each one dumber than the next.
How does someone illegally here, have a right to US Courts, which are funded by US taxpayers?
When did US Courts become a right to the rest of the world citizens for due process?
Does “We The People” include the rest of the world?
Conehead Barrett was such a a damn waste of a slot. NEVER put another female on the Court again.
Apparently a 1988 law handed District courts national reach, and Congress needs to repeal it to end it. This should be Johnson’s top priority
Yeah. They don’t under the Constitution. That’s why this is about the stupidest court in our history. 4 brain dead 80 IQ broads. One pothead, one drunk loser, a Chief Justice who is compromised (probably a pedo) and hates America. Poor Thomas and Alito. Imagine having to show up to work everyday and deal with that gang of idiots.

The signal is that the district courts need to make sure their rulings for nationwide injunctions don’t create jurisdiction in their rulings.
Those were my immediate thoughts as well.

I so wish you were right.
Not fair to make such nasty accusations against the CJ.
God given rights and inalienable rights, even illegals have them. But that doesn’t mean they due process rights.
Supreme Court decisions
Shaughnessy v. United States ex rel. Mezei (1953): The Court stated that aliens who have entered the United States, even illegally, are entitled to due process before being expelled.
Plyler v. Doe (1982): The Court held that undocumented immigrants are entitled to both due process and equal protection under the Fourteenth Amendment.
Mathews v. Diaz (1976): The Court recognized that the Fifth Amendment, as well as the Fourteenth Amendment, protects every person within the jurisdiction of the United States, including aliens, from deprivation of life, liberty, or property without due process of law.
He was on Epstein Island. Guilty. And it’s not fair that compromised douchebag won’t do his job. Was it fair when he gave us Obama care? That loser is human garbage.
