Another day, another activist judge trying to write immigration policy.
Last week, we told you about a judge who ruled that Maryland man Kilmar Abrego Garcia can't be taken back into immigration custody. We can't seem to get rid of Garcia. Sen. Chris Van Hollen flew into action when his "constituent" was mistakenly deported to his own country, El Salvador. It seems that an immigration judge in 2019 granted Garcia withholding of removal, which prohibits deportation to a country where the person's life or freedom would be threatened due to persecution.
Last September, ICE said Garcia was bound for Uganda, but after Garcia said he was “fearful” of persecution in Uganda and 20 other countries, ICE settled on the African country Eswatini. As of October, Garcia’s final order of removal stood as a judge denied a motion to reopen his case. Yet, he's still walking free and can't be detained by ICE. The last we heard, they were planning to deport him to Costa Rica.
Now, a judge has ruled that the Trump administration cannot deport illegal aliens to third-party countries.
BREAKING: Massachusetts federal judge Brian Murphy (Biden appointee) has just ruled that the Trump administration cannot deport illegal immigrants to third party countries, arguing that doing so without due process & the ability to challenge in court is illegal.

Without due process?
SCOTUS already overturned him on this exact issue. What are we doing here?

This has already been decided by SCOTUS

We need a solid ruling by the Supreme Court to end this ridiculous judicial overreach and activism once and for all. Enough!

Odd that SCOTUS allowed just that to happen a few months ago by not stopping the third-country removal of the aliens who were paused in Djibouti.

What do you guess are the odds that Murphy goes 0-3 with SCOTUS on this subject? https://t.co/DGsY1svNf0
We've already been through this. When is SCOTUS going to say enough and take action to punish these rogue judges.

SCOTUS already slapped this judge twice. I suppose he's aiming for a third.
— Not Jane Austen (@atwaSDOK) February 25, 2026
And another inferior court judge beclowns himself and will be slapped down on appeal.

"wrong" country? I think we all agree with not sending someone to a country where they would be killed, but what is the "wrong" country?
— @amuse (@amuse) February 25, 2026
Like it matters. SCOTUS so far says it’s all good.

I don't recall seeing Murphy's name on my 2024 ballot. 🙄🤨🤔

I think 3 reversal rulings on the same matter should be an automatic removal from the bench and law license.

No problem, send them back where they originally came from then

Or, they can self-deport using the CBP Home app, and get a free plane ticket and $2,600 spending money.
Ignore rogue judges

This O'Biden judge sure isn't embarrassed to be overturned again and again. I guess he figures the third time is the charm, lol.

You're here illegally, you get sent home. It should be that easy.
