Divided Supreme Court Sides with Trump, 'Clarifies' Order Allowing Third-Country Deportations

  • On July 3, the Supreme Court lifted a district court order, permitting the Trump administration to deport eight convicted offenders who had been held at a U.S. military facility in Djibouti to South Sudan.
  • The injunction originally blocked these third-country removals due to concerns over the men’s right to separate hearings on potential torture in South Sudan, a country they have no ties to.
  • The eight men, detained for six weeks and shackled in an air-conditioned shipping container under constant guard, come from multiple countries, with unclear plans upon arrival in the dangerous, war-torn South Sudan.
  • Liberal Justices Sotomayor and Jackson dissented, cautioning that the decision allows deportations without sufficient judicial oversight or notice, placing many individuals at serious risk of torture or death.
  • The ruling sets a precedent favoring executive authority in deporting noncitizens to third countries, raising concerns about human rights protections and limits on judicial oversight in immigration enforcement.
