President Trump campaigned under 'mass deportations' but the reality is turning out to be much different as the administration faces roadblocks in the courts, and a lack of will by Congress. All of this is to be expected as the opposition seeks to delay Trump's agenda and run out the clock to new elections.
The Supreme Court early Saturday morning paused the deportation of immigrants potentially subject to the Alien Enemies Act, freezing action in a fast-developing case involving a group of immigrants in Texas who say the Trump administration was working to remove them, reported CNN.
The court’s brief order drew dissents from conservative Justices Samuel Alito and Clarence Thomas.
Attorneys for the Venezuelans at issue in the case filed an emergency appeal at the high court on Friday, claiming they were at immediate risk of being removed from the country and had not been provided sufficient notice to challenge their deportation.
The court ordered the Trump administration to respond to the emergency appeal once a federal appeals court in Louisiana takes action in the case.
In the meantime, the court said, “The government is directed not to remove any member of the putative class of detainees from the United States until further order of this court.”
The move comes as a district judge changed his order on the issue and allowed deportations to go forward.
“I am sympathetic to everything you’re saying, I just don’t I think I have the power to do anything,” US District Judge James Boasberg told a lawyer for the migrants at an emergency hearing Friday night.
