Supreme Court blocks Trump from restarting Alien Enemies Act deportations

Contributing sentiments towards policy:

44% : "Because lower courts have blocked use of the act in every other district in which the president has sought to invoke it, that means it's effectively pausing all removals under the act until the 5th Circuit - and, presumably, the Supreme Court itself - conclusively resolves whether they're legal and how much process is due if so." The court also appeared to criticize how Hendrix, whom Trump nominated to the bench in his first term, had handled the case.
41% : The issue of Alien Enemies Act enforcement then returned to the Supreme Court.
36% : "Today's ruling effectively extends the temporary freeze that the justices put on Alien Enemies Act removals from the Northern District of Texas back on April 19," said Steve Vladeck, CNN Supreme Court analyst and professor at Georgetown Law.
32% : The decision is a significant loss for Trump, who wants to use the law to speed deportations - and avoid the kind of review normally required before removing people from the country.
31% : Following through on a campaign pledge, Trump invoked the act in mid-March as a way to speed the deportation of alleged members of the Venezuelan gang Tren de Aragua.
31% : In a murky, unsigned order on April 7, the Supreme Court technically allowed Trump to continue using the law, and it blocked a legal pathway civil rights groups were attempting to use to challenge Trump's invocation of the law so they could shut down its use wholesale.
24% : Trump claimed in a social media post Friday that the Supreme Court "WON'T ALLOW US TO GET CRIMINALS OUT OF OUR COUNTRY" after the court's decision.
