U.S. Supreme Court sides with Trump administration in third-country deportations
The Supreme Court allowed the Trump administration to resume deportations of migrants to countries that are not identified in their removal orders. It also plans to hear full arguments on the case.
A federal judge is tasked with ending his investigation into allegations that the Trump administration disregarded an order preventing the deportation of Venezuelan migrants to El Salvador, according to a Justice Department attorney's argument before an appeals court. The appeals court, previously skeptical of the government's case, appeared to question the judge's authority to continue with the inquiry.
The case highlights the ongoing conflict between President Donald Trump and the federal judiciary, with the administration frequently defying court orders.
