- On June 23, 2025, the Supreme Court allowed the Trump administration to proceed with removing migrants to nations other than their own, overturning a lower court’s temporary halt on such deportations.
- This decision followed a lawsuit and order by Judge Brian Murphy, who required migrants be given at least 10 days to challenge deportation due to due process concerns.
- Migrants have been deported to nations such as El Salvador, Libya, and South Sudan, even when those individuals originate from different countries.
- The 6-3 Supreme Court majority did not explain their ruling, while Justice Sotomayor dissented, calling it a "gross abuse" that ignores migrants' rights to due process.
- The ruling allows expedited deportations to continue, signaling ongoing legal and political challenges over migrants' rights and the administration's mass deportation goals.
