The Supreme Court issued an order directing the Trump administration not to deport alleged Venezuelan gang members in Texas while litigation is ongoing. The detainees are being held in the Northern District of Texas, and the court’s decision effectively paused deportation efforts. The conservative justices, Clarence Thomas and Samuel Alito, disagreed with the order. The detainees are seeking due process before being deported under the Alien Enemies Act. The case raises questions about Trump’s use of presidential power and whether the administration is following court orders. Earlier, the Supreme Court ruled that detainees must be given a chance to challenge deportation decisions through habeas corpus petitions. The case also involves a separate incident where the Trump administration mistakenly deported Kilmar Abrego Garcia to El Salvador. The court order came after at least one charter bus arrived at the Bluebonnet Detention Center in Anson, Texas to transport the detainees. The ACLU, representing the detainees, emphasized the need to preserve the status quo to prevent the detainees from being sent to a notorious prison in El Salvador. The court ordered the government to respond to the ACLU’s application promptly once the appeals court has taken action.
