Just seems like the SC acted extremely FAST on the older law, with Roberts joining the right. Also saying (if i'm right) that a immigrant taken (arrested) like in Minnesota has to be tried in Texas? (knowing the 5th circuit will hear appeals) TSF has 6 judges on the 5th circuit i think. Why Texas? Anyway i do thank you for helping me try to understand this lawlessness. (seems like we are back in the 1800's where the rich owned the courts and judges.)

Yes, yes, I am surprised. I knew that he was an abhorrent piece of excrement, but I thought maybe CJ had some . . . UniqueUserName Apr 2025 #7

I'm a bit surprised too newdeal2 Apr 2025 #11

Yes. I'm surprised. Baitball Blogger Apr 2025 #25

Fucking amazing how FAST they protect TSF!! bluestarone Apr 2025 #8

Day 78, imagine day 178. NT Tickle Apr 2025 #9

Imagine day 1178 Wednesdays Apr 2025 #13

I can't imagine that far Tickle Apr 2025 #24

They don't want him back. NCDem47 Apr 2025 #10

I'm sure he's harmed. That's what they don't want the world to know. yardwork Apr 2025 #12

That's my take, too. highplainsdem Apr 2025 #18

At best he is harmed FHRRK Apr 2025 #27

I've thought that calling for his return would turn out to be his death warrant. n/t elocs Apr 2025 #43

I hope you're right. Baitball Blogger Apr 2025 #26

It is stated right in Robert's order. madaboutharry Apr 2025 #28

Even if you are correct, it is still a travesty of justice. UniqueUserName Apr 2025 #33

5 pm Tuesday, that is tomorrow. madaboutharry Apr 2025 #45

Yes, but that statement in no way guarantees a ruling. Only a response. A ruling might not follow ancianita Apr 2025 #58

Yes, he is correct... Butterflylady Apr 2025 #56

If you don't think the stay is indefinite, then what is the definite length of stay you think is imposed? (nt) muriel_volestrangler Apr 2025 #59

To clarify -- I'm not predicting how the full court will rule, or what position Roberts will take. onenote Apr 2025 #55

Okk, so why did roberts allow full court to do this? bluestarone Apr 2025 #63

I'll try again. If Roberts denied the stay, Thomas would have granted it. onenote Apr 2025 #64

What i'm trying to understand, is why did Roberts give Garcia's lawyers until 5 pm Today to respond, but then bluestarone Apr 2025 #66

The full court hasn't decided anything with respect to Garcia's case. onenote Apr 2025 #67

So confusing. Hope you're not taking that i'm arguing with you. Just trying to understand decisions coming down. bluestarone Apr 2025 #70

Agree it can be confusing. onenote Apr 2025 #71

Roberts has tipped his hand as to which way he will be ruling. No more unexpected rulings elocs Apr 2025 #41

Maybe not. onenote Apr 2025 #42

It looks like a 24 hour stay, not "indefinite." Renew Deal Apr 2025 #46
