It is not in front of SCOTUS at the moment so we aren't "here" yet and the lower courts have not been surrendering to executive power.

- Forgeties79 2y agoA lower court just declared their treatment and deportation of Venezuelans as unlawful and it changed literally nothing. They’re still doing it. We’ve seen this several times already. Unless enforcement happens, they simply don’t stop.
- outer_web 2y agoIs that what happened? I am only aware of an injunction against additional deportation flights. There is some uncertainty about the administration's justifications for not complying - they may be entirely correct that the terrorist designation changes the calculus. And injunctions are far, far from the point at which things are "declared unlawful".
