One of President Donald Trump’s Supreme Court picks has officially turned on him and conservatives all across the nation by siding with liberal justices to try and put a wall up around his ability to deport illegal migrants who are suspected by the current administration of being members of violent gangs from South America.
Many within the MAGA crowd have come out and expressed the rage boiling their blood after they were all betrayed by Justice Amy Coney Barrett, who was chosen and then confirmed under the first Trump administration.
Barrett was launched into folk hero status among conservatives after she held up a blank notebook during her confirmation hearing before the Senate in order to demonstrate she brought now prepared talking points with her.
“Now, she is under fire after conservative commentators online singled her out for attempting to limit President Trump’s ability to deport illegal immigrants under a wartime powers law known as the Alien Enemies Act. Barrett sided with the court’s three liberal justices in a dissent, written by Justice Sonia Sotomayor, stating that the administration’s conduct ‘poses an extraordinary threat to the rule of law,'” Trending Politics News said.
“A majority of the justices overturned a lower court’s ruling temporarily halting U.S. flights deporting illegal immigrants to mega-prisons in El Salvador and countries of origin, though the freedom to resume movements comes with new restrictions,” the report added.
According to TPN, all deportees from this point forward must be given due process, and the decision also provides an opportunity for legal challenges later down the road if they are filed in the state of Texas, where plaintiffs were being held, instead of what was deemed an improper venue like in the case that came before SCOTUS.
Popular conservative X account, DC_Draino — known as Rogan O’Handley — went on to write the following about Barrett:
“While this Supreme Court victory for Trump allowing him to deport cartels is huge, it was only a 5-4 decision. Guess who joined the 3 liberal Justices to keep cartels here in America? Amy Coney Barrett.”
Another big time conservative influencer hilariously named Catturd, who has over 3.6 million followers, was in full agreement with O’Handley.
“There’s nobody I have less respect for in the entire country besides Dr. Fauci than Amy Commie Barrett – Trump appointed her and gave her her dream job and complimented her and praised her – and she’s been an ungrateful, backstabbing POS since day one. She got a million dollar Liberal book deal within weeks and her whole goal in Life is to be praised by The New York Times,” they went on to write, Newsweek stated.
“Weak, coward, sellout, fraud. She’s everything that’s wrong with this country. She’s an Absolute disgusting fraud,” the post continued.
Some users noted that only the women voted against deporting these sick and twisted gang members back to their home countries.
“All the men on the Court voted the law. All the women, including Amy Coney Barrett, voted their feelings,” conservative commentator Jeff Younger posted on X.
Although Barrett only sided with parts of Sotomayor’s dissent, glaring passages offer a window into her opposition to boundless deportations.
“If the District Court were to resolve the question in plaintiffs’ favor, the Government could have appealed to this Court in the ordinary course, and we could have decided it after thorough briefing and oral argument,” Sotomayor wrote in a passage Barrett slapped her John Hancock on in a co-sign of approval. “In its rush to decide the issue now, the Court halts the lower court’s work and forces us to decide the matter after mere days of deliberation and without adequate time to weigh the parties’ arguments or the full record of the District Court’s proceedings.”
One has to wonder how much Barrett’s Catholic faith came into play in her decision to turn on the president. We know that Pope Francis is hardcore against Trump’s deportation operation and his immigration policies. Perhaps she was attempting to be loyal to the pope?
I hope that’s not the case. I sincerely hope I’m wrong. As a new Catholic myself, I’ve come to understand that the pope’s take on immigration is not dogma, therefore, you can disagree with him on the issue. I do.
