If the U.S. government is going to take the position that, once removed from the United States, folks can’t be brought back, then it sure seems to me that federal courts should be reflexively and categorically barring all removals until they’re 100 percent certain that the removals are lawful.

a lot of times people say the press are "stenographers" and just report both sides even if one is lying. But "both sides" agreed that Trump was going to implement destructive tariffs. That was bad for Trump so the mainstream media just imagined an alternate reality where he wasn't gonna do that
