    This article is light on the details And admittedly I’m too lazy to look them up, but a lot of Supreme Court decisions look a lot worse out of context.

    It’s clearly wrong to suddenly end this protection status without finding better solutions for these refugees, and it clearly contradicts the gibberish spewing from the executive branch.

    But it’s the courts job to decide things like “yes the executive branch can make the determination“, or “yes that does not conflict with the constitution or established precedence” without regard to whether that determination is immoral or self-serving. That is the separation of powers we want restored.

    The cynical part of me points out this will make it easier to make their numbers, to brag about all the “dangerous criminals” they’ve deported.

    The even more cynical part of me wonders whether this drug cartel they continually blame even exists …… and why does that putative cartel seem more trustworthy than my government?
