This week's dramatic court ruling that Donald Trump's sweeping trade tariffs, which he has used to upend global trade, were in fact illegal is the latest in a series of losses for the president's radical agenda that are ultimately heading for a final showdown in the US supreme court. Trump has already asked the supreme court to overturn the lower court ruling in the tariffs case.

A federal appeals court has ruled that the administration of United States President Donald Trump illegally invoked a wartime law to deport Venezuelans as part of its immigration crackdown. Late on Tuesday, a majority on the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals rejected Trump's use of the Alien Enemies Act of 1798 to expedite deportations without due process. The decision was remarkable on several fronts.

Judge Ho's outburst revealed his frustration with the Supreme Court's decision to limit challenges to the Alien Enemies Act, highlighting political tensions among the judiciary.

The court ruled the president can't unilaterally declare an invasion of the United States and invoke a wartime authority during peacetime, protecting vulnerable immigrant groups.

Kilmar Abrego Garcia, an alleged MS-13 member, was wrongly deported to El Salvador. U.S. Attorney General shared evidence supporting his gang affiliation.

The Court does not reach such conclusion lightly or hastily; indeed, it has given Defendants ample opportunity to rectify or explain their actions. None of their responses has been satisfactory.
