"By using the Alien Enemies Act far outside the bounds for which it was designed and (wrongfully) made use of before, and by employing the word 'enemy' to describe his political opponents and people he simply does not like, Trump has made the Hitler analogy as real and undeniable as the fact that tomorrow, night will fall and darkness will descend over the land."

"At least for some, comparing Donald Trump with Adolph Hitler may have previously seemed an exaggerated description of our political reality."

~ Lucian K. Truscott

Once again: all of this with the full complicity of the right-wing Catholic "pro-life" wing now in control of the Supreme Court.

"The Supreme Court’s ruling gestures at due process for people caught in an inhumane deportation machine, while effectively removing the only convenient avenue for relief. It’s also a bright green light for the Trump administration to continue giving the middle finger to courts, safe in the knowledge that their pals at One First Street will bail them out."

Public Notice · John Roberts will save the judiciary if he has to burn it downBy Liz Dye

"On Monday night, just hours before the Trump administration was due in court to defend its practice of renditioning migrants to a Salvadoran gulag, the Supreme Court leapt in to save the president by inventing new law. Again.

Law and Chaos · SCOTUS: Rendition Is Fine, ActuallyBy Andrew Torrez

A federal judge in Texas issued a temporary restraining order blocking the Trump administration from using a rarely invoked wartime law to deport Venezuelan migrants to El Salvador.

The ACLU filed the request two days after the Supreme Court ruled that the legal challenges must be in the state where the migrants are detained. (Texas in this case)

"If the Supreme Court fails to address the Trump Administration’s lawless behavior throughout these proceedings, and if this decision deprives the DC Court of any jurisdiction over the obvious contempt of court that occurred, then Roberts and company have dealt a devastating blow to the rule of law generally."

"Over the weekend, President Trump responded favorably to the suggestion from the president of El Salvador that he could house U.S. prisoners in his notorious prisons: 'I love that,' Trump told reporters on Air Force One."

Morning Memo · No One Is Safe From Being Rendered To Foreign PrisonsBy David Kurtz
Continued thread

"Why hasn’t the Trump administration acted to secure Mr. Abrego Garcia’s release? After all, he is there because of a government screw-up.

The answer can only be that it is using this case to establish a truly chilling proposition: that no one can stop the Trump administration from imprisoning anyone it wants anywhere else in the world."

The New York Times · Opinion | Trump’s Gulag ArchipelagoBy Erwin Chemerinsky

"Inscribed above the front entrance of the U.S. #SupremeCourt is a simple, four-word inscription: Equal justice under law. The phrase doesn’t require a great deal of explanation, but it does require fortification. At the moment, the nation has a president who cares deeply about due process for himself but wants to strip it from others."
