In a 6-3 decision, the Supreme Court has allowed the Trump administration to deport immigrants to countries other than their homeland. In an excerpt from this week’s Insider episode, Preet Bharara and Joyce Vance discuss the latest decision from the Court’s notorious shadow docket.
In the full episode, Preet and Joyce break down:
– A judge’s order releasing Pro-Palestinian activist Mahmoud Khalil while his deportation case unfolds;
– A ruling ordering the release of Salvadoran national Kilmar Abrego García while he awaits his criminal trial;
– A federal appeals court decision allowing President Trump to keep control of the National Guard in Los Angeles; and
– The Supreme Court’s recent decision in U.S. v. Skrmetti, which upheld a Tennessee ban on gender-affirming care for transgender minors.
