Friday, the Supreme Court decided the case of the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) versus President Donald J. Trump.
Trump won.
The Supreme Court’s decision:
reaffirmed the President’s authority to deport illegal criminal immigrants in the name of national security
only applied to two people

“shall terminate upon the sending down of the judgment of this Court” to the Abilene Federal District Court
https://www.supremecourt.gov/search.aspx?filename=/docket/docketfiles/html/public/24a1007.html
the Abilene Court, not the Supreme Court, will determine what constitutes proper notice before deportation orders are valid and can begin
The Supreme Court never explained what “proper notice” requirements were in a valid deportation order.
What then needed to be changed in President Trump’s deportation orders?
Nothing.
Trump won.
Editor’s notes
The American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) filed this case.
They never bragged that they won.
No one else reported they did either.
The ACLU used initials to identify the two people they represented in their case.
AARP, also known as the American Association of Retired People, had nothing to do with Friday’s case.
A.A.R.P. is one of the people the ACLU represented.
The other was W.M.M.
Were they even real people?
Why did the Supreme Court even hear the case?
Neither the Supreme Court nor the Federal District Courts has jurisdiction over immigration cases.
Only Federal Immigration Courts do.

In another case, Noem versus National TPS Alliance, the Supreme Court ruled that the President has the power to deport 350,000 Venezuelans who entered the country under Temporary Protected Status.
The decision was 8-1.

Under Federal Code 8 USC 1254a, federal courts have no jurisdiction over immigration issues such as TPS (Temporary Protected Status).
