🚨URGENT—Despite the Supreme Court declaring that it would be illegal to deport people under the Alien Enemies Act without giving them a meaningful chance to seek judicial review, the Trump admin is reportedly about to send a group of Venezuelans detained in Texas to El Salvador in a matter of hours!

"You know you can be arrested for being homeless now?" Gov. Landry "relocated nearly 200 homeless people, sometimes under threat of arrest." "Trump appointed Madison Sheahan, [..] whose agency enforced Landry’s crackdown, to become deputy director for" ICE. #Louisiana #Housing #Deportation

Wow. This is the full document submitted by Rubio against Mr. Khalil invoking INA 237(a)(4)(C). The standard in immigration court is extremely deferential; a judge must accept this so long as it is “facially reasonable and bona fide.” But this is so threadbare that it might not even satisfy that.
