#NationwideInjunctions

On July 2, US District Judge Randolph Moss in Washington determined that #Trump's denial of #asylum to migrants on the southern #border exceeded the president's #authority.
He then certified a #class that covered all individuals subject to the presidential proclamation on asylum & issued an injunction to protect the class -- effectively a nationwide injunction.
Continued thread
The plaintiffs are asking US District Judge Joseph Laplante, who previously issued a more narrow #injunction blocking #Trump's EO, to go further this time by allowing the plaintiffs to sue as a #nationwide #class & issuing an order blocking Trump's ban from being enforced against members of the class.
At least one other #judge has already followed this formula.
Continued thread
The plaintiffs in the NH #BirthrightCitizenship case are looking to seize upon one of the major exceptions to #SCOTUS’ ruling. They argue it allows #judges to continue to block #Trump policies on a nationwide basis in #ClassAction lawsuits.
The lawsuit, which was filed by the #ACLU & others hours after the Supreme Court ruled, seeks class action status on behalf of babies who would be subject to Trump's #ExecutiveOrder & their parents.
Continued thread
Issued on #Trump’s first day back in office in January, the EO directs federal agencies to refuse to recognize the #citizenship of #children born in the #UnitedStates who do not have at least one parent who is an American #citizen or lawful permanent resident.
Continued thread
One of the biggest tests of the impact of #SCOTUS’ ruling in #Trump v. CASA will come on Thurs, when a federal judge in NH will
consider whether to prevent Trump's #ExecutiveOrder curtailing #BirthrightCitizenship from taking effect nationally on July 27.
That EO was at the heart of SCOTUS’ ruling, which did not address the legality of the policy, but held that #judges likely lack #authority to issue #NationwideInjunctions & ordered 3 judges to reconsider rulings…
Continued thread
In the short time since the ruling, lower-court #judges have already blocked #Trump's #asylum ban at the US-Mexico #border, prevented his admin from ending temporary #deportation #protections for Haitian immigrants & forced the govt to restore #health websites deemed to run afoul of Trump's efforts to squash "gender ideology."
Continued thread
The #Trump admin said it would move quickly to challenge #NationwideInjunctions. However, the ruling by #SCOTUS’ 6-3 conservative majority contained exceptions, allowing federal #judges to continue to issue sweeping rulings blocking key parts of Trump's agenda.
#Judges keep blocking Trump's policies despite #SCOTUS injunction curbs
#Trump called SCOTUS’ June 27 decision limiting the ability of federal judges to use #NationwideInjunctions to block his policies “a monumental victory”but his #legal win may be less definitive than it first seemed.
SCOTUS’ decision curtailed the ability of judges to issue #UniversalInjunctions stopping the govt from enforcing a policy against anyone, anywhere in the entire country.

US Supreme Court drops SHOCKING ruling

Clearly I have a far lower opinion of the Roberts so-called Supreme Court than Marc Elias does. It would be great for everyone to see and hear his thoughts in this video - he is highly expert - but I am going to attach a few of my own thoughts anyway.
