Separately, the high court has temporarily allowed Trump to resume Alien Enemies Act expulsions, though the court said people targeted under the president’s declaration have a narrow right to make a habeas corpus claim in a conservative Texas court — a challenging argument in a challenging venue.

Habeas petitions, which require authorities to justify a person’s detention, generally depend on a given defendant being physically present in a given judicial district. What about all those already in CECOT? No court has addressed the issue head-on.

“I don’t know exactly what needs to happen. The problem is, [the Supreme Court didn’t] address what happened to the people that already got deported ... What about the toothpaste that’s already out of the tube?” Giardina asked.

“Habeas petitions go to the federal district courts where somebody is housed, or where they’re physically located,” Giardina said. “Convincing a district court [judge] in Texas that he still has jurisdiction over a habeas claim for a body that’s no longer in his jurisdiction — probably going to be a tall order. The argument would be that he was in your jurisdiction when his rights were violated, but again, never happened before.”

Yep, supreme court gets to pretend to be against some flagrant human rights violation to keep up their appearances while making sure nobody's actually able to do anything about it, that's the Roberts court we all know and hate

Because they've been shit tier journalism and the handmaidens of human rights atrocities since at least Iran-Contra. They used to be good back in like the 60s and their insane amount of resources they can throw at stories means occasionally they get an interesting scoop, but their editorial board are a bunch of mendacious pricks who will throw marginalized people under the bus and help the rich and powerful sweep dirt under the rug for access.

turned away by school administrators

Those school administrators are heroes who should be an example to everyone right now

The only reason these people are in this dungeon to begin with is because El Salvador is following Trump's orders

Court: "You can't just deport people for no reason!"

Marco Rubio: "We don't like his opinions."

Court: "Understandable have a great day."

Yes

Eh, fair, I definitely don't want to trash the value of a real genuine education, but I am sick to death of these arrogant idiots who just memorized a bunch of neoliberal ideology and justifications for empire at bullshit ivy league schools and then act like they deserve their giant platforms and paychecks

"Look, we know they're never coming out anyway, keeping track of who we throw in there would be a waste of time and money" sounds like exactly the kind of "efficiency" this administration is known for

Can't wait for some overpaid and overeducated shithead at the New York Times to get all "Ah ah ah, it's not a constitutional crisis yet you dirty plebs! They didn't say they're defying the court order, they said they're interpreting it, and we have no choice but to take that completely obvious bullshit at face value because that's how patriotic journalists talk about the leader of the free world."

For real, lawyering is in need of serious reform and step one should be to remove their stupid little private club bar associations from all licensing and any other official roles they currently undertake and replace them with public agencies that are accountable to a democratic process

e; Actually, make that step two, step one is spinning up a nationwide public agency that publishes court decisions in a timely manner, because the fact that we're expected to pay a couple hundred dollars a month to those WestLaw bastards or have to travel in person to a courthouse and pay extortionary printing fees for the privilege of knowing what kind of garbage judges are churning out with our tax dollars is total bullshit

Oh come on, "Freak" sell off makes it sound like there's some mystery as to what caused this when it's blindingly obvious what the problem is here. The markets, and far more importantly all decent and rational people throughout the world, won't and shouldn't have any confidence in anything as long as Donald Trump is president. The only thing that starts to fix this mess is his resignation or impeachment (and that is only a start, investigations criminal charges and sentences amendments to laws etc. all need to happen too).

I wonder because my own opinion, quite seriously, is that an awful lot of what's included in "the spectrum" is actually a superior way of seeing the world and of conducting human interactions

Yeah, I think claims that it's a "disability" have been a totally wrong way to look at it, but I also feel really strongly that any claims that one set of neuro/cognitive features is superior to another is inherently dangerous, because it's almost necessarily an argument for eugenics and genocide (like, why keep the inferiors around if there are any?).

Moreover, I think we can't be sure how our exactly how our whole environment (like, not just the "natural" world, also the things humans build on top of it, and the unexpected ways all the things interact with each other) is going to change, so I think our best evolutionary bet as a species is pursuing things that allow as many different kinds neuro/cognitive archetypes to flourish. Like, who knows, maybe we'll be visited by an alien species that appreciates schozophrics' ability to make unusual associations between thoughts and ideas, or maybe we'll need a worldwide truth and reconciliation commission that could benefit from some ADHD hyperfocusing and sensitivity to justice.

The ways that society has thought about and treated people on the spectrum as inferiors are completely wrong and long overdue to be discarded, but we shouldn't go from there to another supremacist mode of thinking. Pro-diversity is the way to go morally and evolutionarily.
