Merged Due process in the US

If you're referring to the missing two year old child, they're not a proper American. She's only a birthright citizen (something that the greatest president in US history has sworn to dispense with) and anchor baby with no real right to reside in the US.

Anyway, if she missed the 12 hour deadline for saying she wanted to file a petition for habeas corpus, she's got nobody but herself to blame.
 
Sen. Kennedy:
"I don't think President Trump has defied any federal orders. I don't know what these judges expect the federal government to do. Bukele has said he's not returning Mr. Garcia. Mr. Garcia is not coming back to the United States. Ever."
 
Take all the most disgusting people you can find and put them in government positions and you have the Dump cabinet. With the cultists (on this forum and elsewhere) seal clapping for the incompetence and cruelty.
 
I wonder if the military husband was a dump voter who is currently lamenting to his fellow seamen about leopards and faces.

"I don't know what they expect us to do," they said, as they continued paying El Salvador to imprison him.

Maybe we can harness Trump's ineluctable desire to stiff his contractors for good here.

Indeed, I actually know Carlos but I haven't talked to him in a while. And I didn't know about this until I read this same news story a couple of days ago. It seems that due process these days is

I'm not sure what he things a "federal order" is. But Trump has certainly violated the Constitution, and is presently in defiance of several court orders. And yes, the courts have authority to compel and/or enjoin performance by the executive.

That's the most likely avenue. The government wants to pretend El Salvador is acting here as a foreign sovereign that is beyond the control of any U.S. edict. But it's more likely that El Salvador is acting as a contractor for the United States, which makes the contractual operation subject to to U.S. law. And the government is steadfastly resisting disclosing the terms of the agreement to the court under the rubric of "state secrets," likely because the game would be up.
 
If this crap continues, there's going to be gunplay, and that will be very bad news. All the Trump regime needs to declare martial law is a single shot.

One dead Icestapo goon would have them capering with delight.

That story reads as if it's gotten to the stage where deportations are being used to revenge petty personal grievances. There's no way that such a deportation would happen in a working system, no matter how cruel.

Revenge for petty personal grievances is literally the core value of Trumpism. Take it away and all that's left is a fat old man with declining mental facilities in a job he has no interest in.

As with his business "career", he's interested in the job title, the kudos and acclaim, and the perks of the role but he doesn't want to actually do the job.
 
The Supreme Court has ordered a pause on deportations of Venezuelan migrants accused of belonging to the criminal group Tren de Aragua. These deportations depend on the Alien Enemies Act (AEA) of 1798, a wartime law rarely used. The court’s temporary halt on removals follows a request from the American Civil Liberties Union, and drew criticism from conservative Justices Samuel Alito and Clarence Thomas.

Is it any surprise that it's Alito and Thomas who voted against pausing the deportations? Those two are a disgrace.
 
Oh look, another "mistake.
"More U.S. citizens — including at least two San Diegans — have received letters from the Department of Homeland Security telling them to leave the country or risk being removed.

“It goes against everything we stand for as a country, a country that prides itself on freedom,” Adam Peña told NBC 7.





Peña says he doesn’t have freedom anymore in his own country.

“It is time for you to leave the United States. Further goes on to mention that if i do not leave, I would face criminal prosecution and or civil fines or penalties,” Peña said, referring to the letter.

Penalties for not leaving the country where he was born. Although a U.S. citizen, Peña said he fears when walking on the streets.

“I am carrying around my passport and or my birth certificate wherever I go,” Peña said.

Peña, an immigration attorney, is the second legal representative from La Maestra Community Health Center we talked to this month about getting these letters, even though they’re U.S citizens.

They're just dying to deport these immigration lawyers.

This country is ◊◊◊◊◊◊ and there doesn't seem to be a way out of it.

In a moment of positive news on the subject of due process -

Judge Rips Government For Lack Of Any Evidence In First Due Process Case Under Alien Enemies Act

Now, we have had one of the first due process challenges brought to the Trump Administration’s invocation of the Alien Enemies Act, and it will surprise no one that a federal judge in Texas has excoriated the government for a complete lack of an evidentiary basis for the underlying charge that the two petitioners were members of Tren de Aragua. (The 37 page order and decision can be found here, and it merits a full read. The facts recited below are taken from the order and decision.)

In short, the case that the Trump Administration brought was a WTF case. The case that the government brought against the woman fared horribly on inspection, but I'm too lazy to delve more deeply into it. The case against the man is simpler, but not really much different in fundamental nature, so I'm going to poke at it.

As to Mr. Sanchez Puentes, the government’s case — amazingly -- consisted of: “well, he chose to marry and have kids with Ms. Sanchez Garcia. So, he must be Tren de Aragua too.”

Proof! That the Trump Administration is absolutely not to be trusted to forgo due process.
