Summary

The MAGA cinematic universe has gone into full meltdown after the Supreme Court temporarily blocked the Trump administration’s latest deportation push.

The ruling halted deportations that rely on the Alien Enemies Act—in a stunning 7-2 decision. “The Supreme Court would rather actively participate in America’s ruination,” wrote DHS liaison Paul Ingrassia.

“We live in a society where foreign alien terrorists have unlimited free legal representation,” Stephen Miller posted.

Tom Fitton suggested Trump suspend habeas corpus to “reverse the Biden invasion.” “Who will compensate the American people for the lasting damage?” Rep. Mary Miller asked.

    lost all three of his own justices with this one…

    but it’s just a temporary ruling… doesn’t really mean anything–since they’re gonna end up with the case again anyway for what will be the ‘landmark’ ruling.

    so this one could just be ‘for show’ to make it look like they’re acting at least somewhat impartially.

    I’m pleasantly surprised by the court, but the issue is that the court can’t really do shit if he just decides to do shit anyway. We’ve worked on a platform of mutual respect for too long without any real enforcement. All it will take is one orange motherfucker saying “nah”, and it breaks. But at least some faith has been restored in the highest court.

    That weird pervert Thomas still being a real weirdo doesn’t surprise me. Alito doesn’t merit much comment. He’s a gross little slug.
