The Trump administration can’t immediately revoke the deportation protections and work permits of hundreds of thousands of migrants from Cuba, Haiti, Nicaragua and Venezuela who entered the U.S. legally under a Biden-era program, a federal judge ruled Monday.
U.S. District Court Judge Indira Talwani blocked the Trump administration from moving forward with its plan to terminate the legal status of those migrants on April 24. The administration had warned those affected by its announcement that they would need to self deport by that date or face arrest and deportation by federal immigration agents.
But Talwani suspended the deportation warnings the government had sent and prohibited officials from revoking the legal protection, known as immigration parole, that the Biden administration granted to more than half a million Cubans, Haitians, Nicaraguans and Venezuelans.

If Trump and his people ignore the courts, the only way to stop them is physically.
Oh, is that the sound of a mob assembling an iconic French life-discontinuing apparatus on Pennsylvania Avenue I hear?
Sadly no. That’s the French protesting increasing the retirement age.
Americans witnessing the loss of democracy and due process? “I sleep”.
White House: “wyd?”
Tomorrow’s headline: Trump revokes legal status of migrants from Cuba, Haiti, Nicaragua and Venezuela
… and that one judge.
Oh there would be more than one. Wouldn’t surprise me before this is all said and done.

SCOTUS gave him total freedom from judicial authority.

His orders can be struck down? You mean like the two times they defied court orders just today, and one of them was a unanimous SCOTUS ruling, with this Court?
That’s the freedom from judicial authority he was given.
The SCOTUS ruling you’re referring to, while still a terrible precedent as a matter of policy, did not give him a blanket legal right to disregard court orders. He’s just doing it anyway.
Maybe not technically, but it effectively did. There’s no material difference.
You’re falling prey to the idea that in theory, theory and practice are identical, but in practice, theory and practice can often diverge sharply.
If he is immune from criminal prosecution for “official acts”, it is fully legal for him to defy court orders about “official acts”. That ruling gave him unchecked power. That ruling was our Enabling Act.

If they’re doing it, then they have the freedom to do it, until something actually stops them.
No, that’s noncompliance - and by completely misrepresenting the supreme court’s order, they’re playing chicken
The judiciary moves slowly. They have powers they’re hesitant to use - they can order Marshalls to act and see who they obey, or they could deputize a bunch of retired special forces to enforce their decisions outside of the executive branch’s control
It’s not over… Not just yet, anyways. But it’s very, very close - if the judiciary backs down, it’s over. If the administration holds their ground until there’s an armed skirmish, it’s going to get very messy. If both sides keep up this back and forth without forcing a standoff, it could drag on for a while
But it’s not over yet, it’s just not looking good
US Marshals are under DoJ. The only thing that the courts can do is request that Marshals take action. I’m sure Bondi would get right on that.
There’s a hearing today on Abrego Garcia, in the wake of SCOTUS’ unanimous but “maddeningly vague” order to “facilitate” his return, and the administration’s clear failure to do so.
The judiciary moves slowly.
It does, and they’re taking every advantage of that to log jam that process even more, and do whatever they want in the meantime. There needs to be rapid and effective action now, and there’s only one more box of liberty to get it from.
Yes, the Marshalls are. But hey could find Marshalls who take their oath seriously, or they could deputize whoever they like to enforce the court’s ruling
But [t]hey could find Marshalls who take their oath seriously, …
That’s wrong. The request from the court doesn’t just go to the US Marshals. It goes to DoJ.
… or they could deputize whoever they like to enforce the court’s ruling.
Also wrong. The US Marshals Service can deputize Marshals. The courts cannot.
The courts are irrelevant. I guess they might as well keep doing their thing, but they’ll just be ignored.
The pressure point needs to be congress. Those GOP fuckers need to be afraid of losing their jobs sooner than 2 years from now. Citizens need a way to remove their congressman who is not doing what they want them to do.
The problem is a lot of Americans want this, they’re cheering.
There is a way to remove congress people ahead of their term.
They will only be concerned once “jobs” become “lives”
They’re just keeping America on life support and avoiding admitting America is dead
They made themselves irrelevant and this will be their legacy.
But can the court stop his Gestapo from kidnapping these people anyway and trafficking them for torture, slavery, imprisonment and possibly execution? Because they’re just doing it regardless of what the courts rule.
So?
He’ll deport them and get a slap on the wrist and a strongly worded letter from a judge that he’ll ignore.
And no one will do anything about it.
He won’t ignore the letter, he’ll frame it and put it above his toilet.
Watch him do it anyway.
I think it’s cute that judges pretend the US still has a Judiciary
Much of the population as well…
Well, we do, but it’s for everyone else.
It is disgusting that the Orange Turd gets to decide what happens to these people. He should be in jail instead of in the white house.
Judges also ruled that he couldn’t black-bag legal residents and citizens and send them to prison camps in El Salvador. He ignored the judges and did it anyway. Judges then said he had to return the people he kidnapped. He ignored them again.
A law is only a law if it is enforced. Until I see that fat orange fuck being perp walked through the Rose Garden in handcuffs, laws don’t mean shit.
Donald: LAAAAWWWW?!
Trump: deports them anyway.
Autocrat gonna autocrat. He’s pretty much established he doesn’t care what the courts say, and his ICE Stasi don’t care either.
That should solve the problem. International crisis averted.
Soon to be overruled by the Supreme Court with no need to even file!!
I think the SCOTUS are starting to push back but now realising they can’t enforce shit. And they gave this dude immunity last year.
Yep they have zero power or authority now. I’m sure the DoJ would help enforce any rulings that they agree with. They’ll just ignore any they don’t.
What a judge says is apparently not relevant for the Drumpfster or this regime in general.
At this point, any negative ruling against the regime means the same as vibes.
