Trump admin’s WPR report takes pains to stress that the U.S. attack on Iran does not constitute “war in the constitutional sense” (which would require congressional authorization) per factors previously articulated by DOJ’s Office of Legal Counsel.

This decision is bad enough on the merits. But it also gives the government relief in a case in which it defied the district court at least *twice.* That’s quite a message to send to the government with respect to the costs of its litigation behavior in other cases—or the complete lack thereof.

Justice Sotomayor, on the import of what the Supreme Court did today:
"The [Trump administration] thus openly flouted two court orders. ... [E]ach time this Court rewards noncompliance with discretionary relief, it further erodes respect for the courts and for the rule of law."

3. This plea has been fully briefed since June 7th. Taking two weeks to issue an order with no reasoning but with a fierce dissent may be the reason we don't have more merits opinions coming down until Thursday of this week.

2. The fact that the majority cannot be bothered to say EVEN ONE WORD about why it granted the Trump administration this "relief" shows it just isn't bothered by critiques of the shadow docket as a locus of subterfuge and un-reason.

Sotomayor not mincing words at the end: the majority is "rewarding lawlessness" and doesn't care that it will thus permit thousands to suffer violence in far-flung locales.
She adds "regretfully" to "respectfully" in the final line.

The government's approach is "flagrantly unlawful" based on a "facially absurd" claim that terrible things will happen unless it can send these individuals out of the country posthaste, Sotomayor writes
