These ads go in the same category as brazen, easily disproven lies after ICE killings. It’s not about persuasion. It’s a display of power. They could have passed them off as PAC-funded. They added “paid for by the U.S. government” because they want us to know they can break the law with impunity.

Later in the thread. Two problems: (1) many of these folks are *not* undocumented—they’re just removable; and (2) in any event, whether they received the process that is due before being deported to somewhere they might be tortured is, in fact, much of what’s *actually being litigated.*

“To be clear, this is a big win for President Trump and gives him an important tool to ensure that illegal aliens are promptly removed after receiving all process due.”

There is a cottage industry on that other site of people in official government legal jobs affirmatively misstating or misrepresenting what rulings are about and then expressing surprise that anyone could possibly disagree. Just the latest example—from the Solicitor General of Iowa:

“Can President Trump use lawful authority granted by Congress to deport illegal aliens to third countries? The Supreme Court has stayed an order saying no twice, now stayed a permanent injunction for a third time. Oddly, 6-3 despite a similar posture to the Missouri First map”

This is a great catch from Chris, and a remarkably … suggestive … citation from Sauer—flagging the only two recent examples in which (we think) a circuit justice was overruled / preempted by the full Court. Here’s my post from November on this subject: www.stevevladeck.com/p/bonus-192-...

Tuesday's ruling in the SNAP case appears to be the second example in seven months (and for quite some before that) of the full Supreme Court taking an application away from the circuit justice.

Here's a graphic that does a better job of conveying the point than my original post: even by the (insane) standards of the first Trump administration, #SCOTUS is receiving—and granting—a truly unprecedented number of applications for emergency relief from the federal government:

A chart that shows the number of emergency applications filed and granted by the Supreme Court during each presidency dating back to George W. Bush, with the data annualized to show the far-higher frequencies since 2017, but especially during the Trump I and Trump II administrations.
