In today's all-new episode, our hosts Renato Mariotti and Asha Rangappa discuss the disturbing implications of the Supreme Court ruling that appears to give Trump sweeping powers to deport anyone from the country with limited judicial oversight.

Renato Mariotti, former federal prosecutor and legal analyst, breaks down the procedural chaos. The Trump administration's attempts to deport individuals to El Salvador were originally blocked by temporary restraining orders (TROs). These TROs aimed to halt deportations while courts considered the legality of the Department of Homeland Security’s actions. Asha Rangappa, Yale National Security law professor, explains how the Supreme Court later vacated these TROs, making it harder to pursue justice. This ruling could lead to more wrongful, unchecked deportations, like in the case of Kilmar Abrego Garcia—who was deported to El Salvador despite a court order. The hosts also discuss the Supreme Court’s increasing reliance on the shadow docket—emergency decisions made without full deliberation—raising concerns about transparency and fairness. Ultimately, our hosts emphasize the far-reaching impact these legal developments will have on the American justice system, setting a dangerous precedent whereby potentially even U.S. citizens might be whisked away to a foreign prison without legal recourse.
