Supreme Court lets third-country deportations resume; ~25,000 already deported

The Supreme Court voted 6-3 to pause a lower court ruling blocking the Trump administration from quickly deporting migrants with final removal orders to countries other than their own without a chance to raise torture or persecution fears. Justices Sotomayor, Kagan and Jackson dissented. The Court will hear oral arguments in December, with a ruling expected by next summer. The administration has deported roughly 25,000 migrants to more than two dozen countries, with most sent to Mexico, according to the Associated Press.
