Washington – The Supreme Court on Thursday cleared the way for the Trump administration to deport a group of migrants with a criminal record held at the US Navy base in Djibouti, clarified its scope. Earlier order This lifted restrictions on the removal of countries that are not location of original places.
Shortly after the ruling, the Assistant Secretary of Homeland Security Trissia McLaglin announced, “These Sikos will go to South Sudan, calling it” victory for rule of law “.
High court Follow -up rule A federal judge came after stopping the April prohibition, which stopped the Trump administration from existing in the so -called third countries, and informed them the first destination and gave them a chance to compete their exile by increasing the fear of torture, harassment or death.
Soon after the order by the Supreme Court last month, US District Judge Brian Murphy said that a decision he issued in May required the Trump administration, which men detained in Djibouti before removing them in South Sudan required men to provide interviews with American refugees. ,
Those people – who cheer from Latin America and Asia, and have been convicted for serious crimes in the US – Murphy has been held on the Djibouti base for weeks after the Homeland Security Department ordered to maintain custody. Trump administration has described Bad and dangerous circumstances Djibouti was encountered by personnel sent to protect men, including malaria, rocket attacks, inadequate security protocols and concerns about triple-design outdoor temperature.
Murphy issued his order after finding out in May that the Trump administration violated its initial prohibition when he tried to remove the migrants rapidly in the South Sudan with a notice of less than 24 hours and did not give any chance to increase the fear-based claims. The world’s smallest country, South Sudan suffers from violence and political instability, the State Department has warned Americans not to travel there.
According to the Department of Justice, the State Department has received “reliable diplomatic assurance” from South Sudan that migrants will not be subject to torture.
The Supreme Court on Thursday stated that Murphy’s order could no longer be used to implement an prohibition, which has made our migration unattainable, “referring to April prohibitory orders from Murphy that the High Court had stopped last month. Justice Elena Kagan wrote in a statement that, while he opposed the initial break of the Supreme Court, “I don’t see how the district court could force an order to comply with an order that the court is staying.”
In an dissatisfaction included by Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson, Justice Sonia Sotomore said that the High Court’s majority effectively allowed Trump administration to carry on “illegal loops”, which expresses concern about the safety of exile.
“What the government wants to do, solidly, eight nonsuxes are sent illegally from the United States to Djid to South Sudan, where they will be handed over to local authorities, where they will face torture or death without the possibility that they will face torture or death. ,
Legal battle
Supreme Court The original order last month was a significant legal victory for President Trump and his collective exile campaign. As part of that effort, the administration officials have Tried to explain Countries around the world, including remote parts of Africa, Accept the exile Who are not their citizens. There are already many countries including Al Salvador, Costa Rica, Panama and Kosovo Agreed to host migrants From other countries that have been deported from America
The High Court’s verdict in June was canceled and there was no argument, about the question whether the Trump administration could proceed to deport the migrants being held in South Sudan in Djibouti, as it was trying to do it initially. Three Liberal Justices – Kagan, Sonia Sotomore and Ketanji Brown Jackson – dissatisfaction.
Murphy clarified that the Homeland Security Department could not remove men without providing additional procedure yet, Solicitor General D. John sare Asked for a further word From Justice.
Sawyer, who represented the government before the court, argued that the decision of justice means that there is no prohibition to stop the exile of the migrants in Djibouti. Murphy’s decisions, he wrote, “There is a lawless task of disobedience, which once again, disrupts sensitive diplomatic relations and slam the brake on the legitimate efforts of the executive to influence the expulsion of the third country.”
“This court should immediately clarify that the enforcement order of the district court has no effect, and a rapid ended end to the outstanding damage to the executive branch and its agents, which remain under the baseless threat to contempt as they are forcing dangerous criminal aliens at a military base in Africa’s horn which are now located on the boundaries of a regional conflict,” said.
Immigration lawyers disagreed and told the Supreme Court Admission He order Murphy’s order “is the only shield that preserves and preserves their statutory, regulatory and fixed procedure rights to get protection from torture in South Sudan.”
He said that the judge’s order requires the government to maintain the custody of eight exile and to provide them appropriate interviews, just a solution that was issued to address the violation of their prohibition of the Trump administration.
In addition, immigration lawyers said that when the Department of Justice first demanded the intervention of the Supreme Court to resume the exile of the third country, it did not give relief from that follow -up order about the attempt to remove South Sudan.
“Because the remedial order of the district court is not before the court, it is effective,” he argued. “Any other findings will reward the government’s disregard of the district court orders.”
Prior to the expulsion of the first third country of the Supreme Court, before being played on its emergency dock, where the Trump administration requested relief, while legal proceedings play out. Decisions on those requests are usually made only with written briefing and no oral logic, and court decisions often do not include its argument or how its members voted.

But it has also been said that migrants are facing strong exile. 1798 law Foreign enemy is known as Act Should receive notice And one An opportunity to challenge their expulsion In court.
