Justice Samuel Alito has written a sharp dissent that castigates the seven-member majority for blocking the Trump administration from deporting any Venezuelans held in northern Texas under an 18th-century wartime law.
Gotta love Alito and Thomas, lol.
The inanity of this descent is wild.
A emergency hold while you await further info from the government before they ship someone out of the country is pretty normative and reasonable.
And “the government hasn’t said anything about it to us yet, so we can’t rule on it,” is the most braindead take in the world. So the government can do whatever they want without injunction, so long as they don’t file a rebuttal in court? Lunacy.
But, gotta love a good 7-2 with Alito and Thomas at the bottom. Gonna have to go read the full opinion. Those ones are always good for a laugh.
