BREAKING NEWS: The Supreme Court Upholds Justice In The Wee Hours - Andrew Weissmann

Here is a special discussion with Ryan Goodman, of Just Security
(which just launched its own must-subscribe Substack: https://justsecurity.substack.com/subscribe).

We explain the dramatic series of events on Friday, leading up to the Supreme Court decision (7-2) in the wee hours of Saturday morning preventing (for now) the Trump Administration’s efforts to thwart judicial review of its actions, namely its hasty forcible removal of American residents — with no judicial review — to a foreign prison from which the Trump Administration has said it cannot arrange a person’s return. Meaning, once removed, the Trump Administration claims it cannot undo any illegal removals.

The Supreme Court’s decision is here.

How this came about, and what to expect now, is the subject of this terrific conversation with Ryan.

Take a listen. Stay engaged. - 04/19/2025.
