Promise made: mass deportation

[Winehole23]

Trumplandia does itself no favors in court by taunting judges who rule against them

Although this ruling is limited to individuals held within the Northern District of Texas, it makes abundantly clear to lower courts (and, insofar as it’s listening, the government), that there aren’t going to be any removals under the AEA until the facial validity and due process questions are answered—almost certainly by the justices after the Fifth Circuit issues its ruling, presumably later this summer. This was, to me, the implicit message of the April 19 intervention; it is all-but explicit now. Indeed, this may be why President Trump, who didn’t really react to the April 19 ruling, lashed out publicly early Friday evening. The AEA as a basis for removal is dead—at least for the time being, and until the Supreme Court specifically says otherwise.

I continue to be fascinated by the eroding “presumption of regularity,” and where it is (and isn’t) showing up in Supreme Court decisions in Trump-related cases. That erosion shows up in A.A.R.P. II in spades. Indeed, although the majority never quite brings itself to say the quiet part out loud, the point animating most of its disagreement with the dissent is its unwillingness to rest its analysis on the government’s representations rather than on the plaintiffs’ allegations. We’ll see if this skepticism remains limited to the removal context, or whether it starts showing up in other rulings in Trump-related cases. But it’s clearly the elephant in the room here.

[Winehole23]

While technically only addressing the Northern District of Texas, the Supreme Court’s decision to grant an injunction here throughout the remainder of the litigation will likely have a ripple effect nationwide. Additionally, the decisions that the government’s current AEA notice is insufficient and that one of DOJ’s key arguments against class certification is rejected are now nationwide precedent that we will quickly see in filings across the nation.

Nationwide injunction against summary removal to third countries upheld

Trump is getting shot down right, left and center in the courtroom

The Trump administration lost a bid on Friday to lift a judge's order barring it from swiftly deporting migrants to countries other than their own including Libya and El Salvador without first hearing their concerns about their safety.

The Boston-based 1st U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals declined to put on hold a judge's injunction that aimed to ensure that migrants have an opportunity to raise claims they might be persecuted, tortured or killed if they are deported to countries not previously identified in their immigration proceedings., opens new tto put on hold a judge's injunction that aimed to ensure that migrants have an opportunity to raise claims they might be persecuted, tortured or killed if they are deported to countries not previously identified in their immigration proceedings.

The Reagan amnesty doesn't get much run here, for some reason

In a speech I gave 25 years ago, I told a story that I think bears repeating. Two friends of mine were talking to a refugee from Communist Cuba. He had escaped from Castro, and as he told the story of his horrible experiences, one of my friends turned to the other and said, ``We don't know how lucky we are.'' And the Cuban stopped and said, ``How lucky you are? I had someplace to escape to.''

Well, no, America's freedom does not belong to just one nation. We're custodians of freedom for the world. In Philadelphia, two centuries ago, James Allen wrote in his diary that ``If we fail, liberty no longer continues an inhabitant of this globe.'' Well, we didn't fail. And still, we must not fail. For freedom is not the property of one generation; it's the obligation of this and every generation. It's our duty to protect it and expand it and pass it undiminished to those still unborn.

Now, tomorrow is a special day for me. I'm going to receive my gold watch. And since this is the last speech that I will give as President, I think it's fitting to leave one final thought, an observation about a country which I love. It was stated best in a letter I received not long ago. A man wrote me and said: ``You can go to live in France, but you cannot become a Frenchman. You can go to live in Germany or Turkey or Japan, but you cannot become a German, a Turk, or a Japanese. But anyone, from any corner of the Earth, can come to live in America and become an American.''

Yes, the torch of Lady Liberty symbolizes our freedom and represents our heritage, the compact with our parents, our grandparents, and our ancestors. It is that lady who gives us our great and special place in the world. For it's the great life force of each generation of new Americans that guarantees that America's triumph shall continue unsurpassed into the next century and beyond. Other countries may seek to compete with us; but in one vital area, as a beacon of freedom and opportunity that draws the people of the world, no country on Earth comes close.

This, I believe, is one of the most important sources of America's greatness. We lead the world because, unique among nations, we draw our people -- our strength -- from every country and every corner of the world. And by doing so we continuously renew and enrich our nation. While other countries cling to the stale past, here in America we breathe life into dreams. We create the future, and the world follows us into tomorrow. Thanks to each wave of new arrivals to this land of opportunity, we're a nation forever young, forever bursting with energy and new ideas, and always on the cutting edge, always leading the world to the next frontier. This quality is vital to our future as a nation. If we ever closed the door to new Americans, our leadership in the world would soon be lost.

A number of years ago, an American student traveling in Europe took an East German ship across the Baltic Sea. One of the ship's crewmembers from East Germany, a man in his sixties, struck up a conversation with the American student. After a while the student asked the man how he had learned such good English. And the man explained that he had once lived in America. He said that for over a year he had worked as a farmer in Oklahoma and California, that he had planted tomatoes and picked ripe melons. It was, the man said, the happiest time of his life. Well, the student, who had seen the awful conditions behind the Iron Curtain, blurted out the question, ``Well, why did you ever leave?'' ``I had to,'' he said, ``the war ended.'' The man had been in America as a German prisoner of war.

Now, I don't tell this story to make the case for former POW's. Instead, I tell this story just to remind you of the magical, intoxicating power of America. We may sometimes forget it, but others do not. Even a man from a country at war with the United States, while held here as a prisoner, could fall in love with us. Those who become American citizens love this country even more. And that's why the Statue of Liberty lifts her lamp to welcome them to the golden door.

It is bold men and women, yearning for freedom and opportunity, who leave their homelands and come to a new country to start their lives over. They believe in the American dream. And over and over, they make it come true for themselves, for their children, and for others. They give more than they receive. They labor and succeed. And often they are entrepreneurs. But their greatest contribution is more than economic, because they understand in a special way how glorious it is to be an American. They renew our pride and gra ude in the United States of America, the greatest, freest nation in the world -- the last, best hope of man on Earth.

Alito is lazy, or he cherry-picked the source

Either makes sense, he seems to work backwards from desired results to relevant portions of law that back it up

What a hack

"going after the criminals"

An international student in South Dakota, who earned two degrees amid her fight against the Trump administration’s attempt to deport her, has been granted injunction.
Priya Saxena, who’s from India, received a doctorate in chemical and biological engineering and a master’s in chemical engineering from South Dakota School of Mines & Technology this past weekend. Just over a month ago, Saxena had been notified that her visa and status in the country had been revoked.

Saxena’s attorney, Jim Leach, told NBC News that her sole infraction was for a failure-to-yield to an emergency vehicle from four years ago, which he described as “the lowest possible traffic offense.”

Saxena, who sued the Trump administration, was granted a temporary restraining order until the end of this week, allowing her to collect her degrees. And on Thursday morning, she was granted a preliminary injunction that keeps the government from attempting to detain or deport her.

“The rule of law saved an innocent person from unlawful action by this administration,” Leach said. “Dr. Saxena is exactly the kind of person we should want in this country.”

“The government sent these letters, no matter what the conviction was, even for a traffic conviction,” Leach said of Saxena’s visa and status revocations. “I’ve had more traffic convictions since then than she has.”

The Department of Homeland Security did not immediately respond to NBC News’ request for comment.

Saxena had been in the country on a student visa that wasn’t set to expire until 2027. But on April 7, she received an email from the U.S. Embassy in New Delhi, notifying her that her visa had been revoked, according to court do ents.

She was later told by a school official that her record had been terminated in the Student and Exchange Visitor Information System (SEVIS), which maintains information about nonimmigrant students and exchange visitors.

While Saxena received the traffic infraction in 2021, she paid a fine and, upon applying for her most recent visa, disclosed the information to the government, the court do ents said.
“The government reissued her visa and then comes back three and a half years later and says, ‘Oh, wait a minute. Get out of the country now,’” Leach said. “It just makes no sense.”

Miguel wrote in a Facebook post Friday that his mother, who has six children, was detained during her annual appointment to renew the work permit she has held for over a decade.

“During each follow-up, they never detained her or raised any concerns until now,” he said, adding that the change seems related to policies of the Trump administration. “They are tearing families apart."

US judge charged for allegedly helping man evade immigration officials

A judge in the US state of Wisconsin has been charged for allegedly helping a Mexican man evade immigration officials through a back door during an arrest attempt.

Milwaukee County Circuit Judge Hannah Dugan was arrested in April. Now a federal grand jury has approved the two charges against her, which could see the judge face a prison term.

How would you solve it?

A clear path to legal residency, more intake capacity and immigration judges to sort out the claims quickly -- which would necessarily entail an efficient mode of deportation.

To that end -- because we have due process in the US -- more clerks and judges would definitely seem called for,
