Supreme Court allows Trump to resume deporting migrants to 'third world' countries

The Supreme Court ruled Monday that the Trump administration can resume deporting migrants to countries other than their home nation with limited notice.

In a 6–3 decision that broke down along ideological lines, the justices stayed a late May ruling by a Boston federal judge that temporarily stymied the rapid deportation effort.

The conservative majority did not provide a rationale for their ruling but liberal Justice Sonia Sotomayor penned a scathing dissent joined by fellow liberals Elena Kagan and Ketanji Brown Jackson.

“In matters of life and death, it is best to proceed with caution,” Sotomayor wrote. “In this case, the Government took the opposite approach.”

“This Court now intervenes to grant the Government emergency relief from an order it has repeatedly defied. I cannot join so gross an abuse of the Court’s equitable discretion.”
