Trump administration allowed to deport migrants to other countries again: 'incomprehensible and unforgivable'


The administration of US President Donald Trump can temporarily deport migrants to countries they did not originally come from. The US Supreme Court decided yesterday, temporarily blocking a lower court ruling.
It previously stated that migrants should be given a "meaningful opportunity" to challenge their deportation, as there would be a serious risk that migrants could be tortured if deported to a "third country".
One of the countries Trump wants to take the deported migrants to is conflict-torn South Sudan, Reuters reports.
Earlier this year, the US president also threatened to expel protesting students. You can see that in this video:
Immigrant rights groups have already filed a lawsuit on behalf of a group of migrants to prevent them from being deported to other countries without notice and without due process. The Trump administration’s deportation policy is said to violate the due process protections in the U.S. Constitution.
CriticismNow that the Supreme Court has given permission to deport migrants and then send them to another country, the court can expect heavy criticism . The three liberal justices on the court have already indicated that they disagree with the ruling, calling it "as incomprehensible as it is inexcusable." The conservatives have a majority on the court.
