The Supreme Court on Monday allowed the Trump administration to use an 18th century wartime law to deport Venezuelan migrants, but said they must get a court hearing before they are taken from the United States.

In a bitterly divided decision, the court said the administration must give Venezuelans who it claims are gang members "reasonable time" to go to court.

But the conservative majority said the legal challenges must take place in Texas, instead of a Washington courtroom.

In dissent, the three liberal justices said the administration has sought to avoid judicial review in this case and the court "now rewards the government for its behavior." Justice Amy Coney Barrett joined portions of the dissent.

Absolute insanity, allowing Trump to use a wartime law, it's okay though because they have to be given a chance to go to court, in fucking Texas of all places, Christ! I don't know why anyone who isn't a poster child for Hitler's perfect human being (white, blonde hair, blue eyes) would visit America right now when there's a good chance you'll end up locked up and abused.
