Laying Down the Law

In tonight's episode of Politics Nation, Reverend Al Sharpton discusses the Trump administration's need to temporarily halt deportations of Venezuelans while the Supreme Court reviews the case. A rare ruling was issued by the high court early Saturday after backlash against the White House's strict immigration policies. Maryland Senator Chris Van Hollen recently visited El Salvador to meet Kilmar Abrego Garcia, a man deported due to an "administrative error." Instead of complying with the Supreme Court's order to facilitate his return, the White House provided information about Abrego-Garcia’s past, claiming it justifies his removal without due process. Concerns are rising in Washington that the administration’s defiance in the face of Supreme Court opposition could lead to a constitutional crisis. The situation underscores the growing scrutiny of the White House's immigration policies and their implications for the rule of law.
