"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 court said in a brief early Saturday note. Justices Clarence Thomas and Samuel Alito dissented.

Of course Alito and Thomas were all for deporting without due process under a law that every sane human knows doesn't apply.

Someone who loves America is going to have to hijack a plane and fly it into the Treasonous Supreme Court.
It's the only way to keep these disgusting, disease carrying immigrants from invading our country.

Good point.
Alito is still figuring out how to put together the semblance of a sensible argument to support his dissent.
Thomas, the Harriet Miers of the Court, knows he is too lazy and too stupid to pull that off, so he'll just agree with Alito.
"Justices Clarence Thomas and Samuel Alito dissented from the court's order. They did not provide any explanation for their votes on Saturday morning, but the order indicated a statement from Alito would follow"

Alito and Thomas are Corrupt.
They dissented to please Trump.
Any "Legal" spin is BS.
Any "Reasons" given for dissenting are Lies.
In the Tank for Trump, that's the Reason, legalese notwithstanding.

Supreme Court justices Samuel Alito and Clarence Thomas are so sleazy and corrupt it's easy to forget they weren't nominated by Donald Trump.

It seems to me if one president can let millions in with minimal vetting it should be just as easy to remove those same individuals.

True.
I have zero respect for Alito and Thomas. I don't trust either one of them. I don't believe either one of them.
So perhaps my personal view of these two massive corrupt losers is a bit tainted.

Every president since the 60s has let "millions in with minimum vetting".
And no it's not as easy to get them all out once they are in. Some yes. Many no.
Not if you follow the law as written.
Maybe it's a more complex issue than your little maga brain can comprehend?
Perhaps Trumpy should not have tanked the bipartisan immigration bill Congress was attempting to pass to help reform our nations immigration laws.

That might be your worst equivalence of the year! The equivalent of letting people enter... is letting people leave.
You're comparing the State letting people enter freely, To a President invoking the police powers of the State to round up ten million people at gunpoint.
This comparison seems apt to you because you are a Statist.

The dissenters warned:
"The implication of the Government's position is that not only noncitizens but also United States citizens could be taken off the streets, forced onto planes, and confined to foreign prisons with no opportunity for redress if judicial review is denied unlawfully before removal."
^ That's a feature, not a bug. It would be refreshing if a Republican could simply admit the point of all this is to disappear people without judicial review.

And Lord forgive, but I really really despise Alito. What a shitty excuse for a human being.

Per curiam opinion: An unsigned opinion,
"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 justices said in a brief, unsigned decision.
Orders that are issued without an opinion are often unsigned, meaning that no one justice takes responsibility for them, and no Justice thinks it worth registering a dissent.
Short opinions are sometimes issued per curiam meaning "by the court". This means that no one Justice takes responsibility or credit for them, either. They are usually brief and non-controversial, perhaps procedural.
Is a Court Order Legally Binding if Not Signed by a Judge? JustAnswer https://www.justanswer.com Family Law Jan 16, 2024 " Generally speaking, no, an unsigned order isn't binding on anyone. Parties frequently draft and submit orders to the court for approval.

I don't see what good any of this does. They're just going to be held in detention now, instead of going home to breathe the clean air of venezuela and reunion with their cholos.
Is GITMO part of "the United States " Maybe hold them there instead of sending them home. They most certainly will not be released.

It's amazing to me how eager you are to shht on out Constitution because you have determined these people are all "gang members, murders, and rapists." Facts are that that is flatly not true, and even if some - or all were - they all are entitled to due process. ALL persons.
But instead what you and Trump are doing is exactly what Joe McCarthy did. Instead of painting everyone as "communists" Trump and his cadre paint them as murderers, criminals, rapists, and worse. McCarthyism was "The "Red Scare."
Today's version is "The Brown Scare" and you are no different than those that seized on the lies of McCarthy to ruin peoples lives.

No - actually you don't believe in due process or following the law or any of the other talking points the Dems are desperately trying to put out now to explain why they are demanding to keep illegal, wife beating, gang members in the country.
It is beyond clear now that the plan under Biden was to 'flood the zone' with numbers of illegals that would make the immigration court system break due to the sheer numbers. We are done playing your games and your illegals are going back - ALL OF THEM. YOU should not have brought them here in the first place and I believe the Democrat party, their NGOs, and their liberal activist judges should be arrested and tried under RICO for child and drug trafficking AND they should be charged for every crime committed by an illegal in the US that their criminal conspiracy brought to this country.

That's the main flaw with the Constitution. It assumes that the President is not an abjectly stupid, ignorant, selfish, greedy, tantrum-throwing lunatic, so it lets them do pretty much whatever they want.
