“Amazon dieback” is just one grim example of what scientists refer to as a tipping point: a threshold after which self-sustaining feedback loops irreversibly change a part of Earth’s climate system. How close is the world to crossing them?

NEWS: This evening, Judge Brian Murphy — with some fire — denied DOJ’s request that he reconsider his decision that the Trump administration violated his prior order by trying to send people to South Sudan in a plane that left the U.S. and got to Africa. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
DISTRICT OF MASSACHUSETTS
D.V.D, et al.,
Plaintiffs,
Civil Action No.
25-10676-BEM
v.
U.S. DEPARTMENT OF HOMELAND SECURITY, et al.,
Defendants.
MEMORANDUM AND ORDER ON
DEFENDANTS' MOTIONS FOR RECONSIDERATION AND STAY
MURPHY, J.
Defendants have mischaracterized this Court's order, while at the same time manufacturing
the very chaos they decry. By racing to get six class members onto a plane to unstable South
Sudan, clearly in breach of the law and this Court's order, Defendants gave this Court no choice but to find that they were in violation of the Preliminary Injunction.
Even after finding that violation, however, the Court stayed its hand and did not require Defendants to bring the individuals back to the United States, as requested by Plaintifis. Instead, the Court accepted Defendants' own suggestion that they be allowed to keep the individuals out of
the country and finish their process abroad. In the interest of full transparency, the Court quotes at length from the hearing transcript:THE COURT: [Plaintiffs' counsel] is suggesting that the only remedy is for the plane to return here so that these individuals be given an opportunity to raise any objections they have to being sent to South Sudan. Do you have another suggestion as to what a remedy that would allow these people to have the process that they are due might be?
MR. ENSIGN: If I may, we think any remedy should be narrowly tailored to the violation. And so, you know, if Your Honor believes they weren't given a meaningful opportunity to express a fear under CAT [Convention Against Torture], that the remedy should first be limited to giving them such a meaningful opportunity. If they were to do so, then they would be given that reasonable fear interview. But bringing them back would be a much broader remedy than necessary because this Court only requires compliance with procedures and, to the extent that Your Honor believes those procedures were not followed, the Government should be allowed to provide those procedures, and that should satisfy the due process as interpreted by this Court.
THE COURT: Thank you, Mr. Ensign. So let's say that -- I agree with you that I want to make the most narrowly tailored order to address the violation of my preliminary injunction that is possible. What you're suggesting is that they can have a reasonable fear interview where they are now. Is that a practical possibility?
MR. ENSIGN: Your Honor, I don't know. I'd have to speak to my client, but ! think that would need to be at least one of the compliance options that's presented, because that would be a much more narrowly tailored remedy that is actually tailored to the violation that Your Honor has found.'MR. ENSIGN: Your Honor, I don't know. I'd have to speak to my client, but I think that would need to be at least one of the compliance options that's presented, because that would be a much more narrowly tailored remedy that is actually tailored to the violation that Your Honor has found.'
After this exchange, Defendants spent several hours conferring internally as to the feasibility of
this option, ultimately deciding that it was doable:?
THE COURT: I'm very much considering this, but, if this is the route we go, my inclination would be to say, if you want to do all of these interviews where they are, you have to do them appropriately; if you don't want to, you can always bring them home of your own volition and do it there. …
2 Tr. of May 21, 2025 H'rg at 119:10-21. ("[L.C.E. Assistant Director Charles): I know it's possible and the Department can work it out. We've been working on it for the last couple of hours to make sure that we can do it, and it is possible to do it.").
MR. ENSIGN: And we appreciate that, Your Honor. And, you know, to the extent that it poses challenges that are not -- that would be insurmountable, we would quickly inform the Court and figure out -- use one of the options to comply with the Court's orders.?
Since that hearing, merely five days ago, Defendants have changed their tune. It turns out
that having immigration proceedings
on another continent is harder and more logistically
cumbersome than Defendants anticipated. However, the Court never said that Defendants had to
convert their foreign military base into an immigration facility; it only left that as an option, again,
at Defendants' request. The other option, of course, has always been to simply return to the status
quo of roughly one week ago, or else choose any other location to complete the required process.To be clear, the Court recognizes that the class members at issue here have criminal histories. But that does not change due process. "The history of American freedom is, in no small
measure, the history of procedure." Malinski v. New York, 324 U.S. 401, 414 (1945) (Frankfurter,
J., concurring). "It is procedure that spells much of the difference between rule by law and rule by whim or caprice. Steadfast adherence to strict procedural safeguards is our main assurance that there will be equal justice under law." Joint Anti-Fascist Refugee Comm. v. McGrath, 341 U.S. 123, 179 (1951) (Douglas, J., concurring). The Court treats its obligation to these principles with the seriousness that anyone committed to the rule of law should understand.
It continues to be this Court's sincere hope that reason can get the better of rhetoric. The orders put in place here are sensible and conservative. Accordingly, and for the reasons stated herein, Defendants' motions for reconsideration and for stay pending appeal are DENIED.
