Roberts needs time to think about whether it's fair to require the government to return a man they kidnapped and "mistakenly" (their claim) sent to a labor camp. What is there to think about? They said he wasn't supposed to be sent.
Oddly this staves off a bigger constitutional crisis - at least for now.
The Trump Administration was not going to return him - so you would have had the executive department ignoring the courts - which opens up a whole can of worms - and the court would have been impotent to force any action.
If they have enough control over the El Salvadoran prison for Kristi Noem to do a photo op, they can return Mr. Garcia, a wrongfully deported person, from this same prison.
Also, it’s interesting how fast Chief Justice Roberts can rule in a case when he wants to.
If this man who has been mistakenly deported to a foreign gulag dies, Justice Roberts should resign and then be sued for the death of this man.
We should call for all those conservative justices on SCOTUS to resign. They enabled the illegality of this admin by giving immunity to an insurrectionist
Roberts and the other corrupt SCOTUS need to be deported to that prison so that they can better evaluate the conditions and make a data-backed decision.
Just sickening- how long will this pause be- a day, a week, long enough for this victim of Trump’s incompetence to be dead by the time they get their act together (as if)!!!
This is not a decision on the final outcome. This is a pause while the court reviews the appeals court decision and the response filed by Garcia’s lawyers (which appears to have been filed at nearly the same time as this order).
At the time Roberts issued this stay, he only had the Government’s filing. This (likely) brief stay allows the court to act on a more complete official record. The pace is frustrating, but this is another instance of a case moving at super speed compared to most. I share your sentiment.
This really seems like settled law which doesn’t really need a fulsome Court review but hey sure let’s mull “both sides” of “rip a legally present person off the street and deport to prison”
Mother fucking Roberts. He clearly doesn’t give a shit what the law is only appeasing his new god. Get that bastard out of the Supreme Court NOW. Term limits baby!!!
John Roberts ignores kidnapping,
To delay Trump’s El Salvador reckoning.
If Garcia is killed while his ruling stands,
They’ll all have blood on their hands.
This should have been a slam dunk for the SC. A short pause, even a 24-hour pause (thru tomorrow 5p to allow for further argument), is too long given the fact set.
I am new and I am not sure I am allowed to even say this. If you do not have the means for self defense it is past time for you to get one. You must learn to use and handle it responsibly and safely. None of us can go on relying on the institutions of our country to protect us and our families.
Time to impeach a SCOTUS Chief Justice. There is no legal reason for this, the unanimous ruling by a 3 judge panel was crystal clear on the evidence and law. Even a one day pause is ridiculous.
What's to pause? The man is innocent and was wrongfully detained and sent to a prison camp in another country. They have said as much. There is no gray area here, just wrong. Absolute wrong at the hands of our government. They should fix it now, as soon as possible.
Shameless. That guy, head of the highest court, won't stand up for even this lawlessness. What will he stand up for? Oh wait. I remember: Don't mess with judges.
The paid traitors in #SCOTUS bow to the king and do not uphold the Constitution. The authoritarian regime along with #SCOTUS is at war with Americans and the Constitution.
This regime needs to be removed before America is gone.
While I certainly do not vouch for the Roberts Court, I believe this is a temporary stay to allow the parties to brief the full court. Meaning it could be reversed - as happened in the USAID case.
That's if he's not already dead. Which would explain why they are fighting so hard not to bring him back after admitting they messed up. He was, after all, sent to a jail facility in the country he ran from to avoid the very people he is in a jail with. The odds of him being alive is slim.
