The Supreme Court has sanctioned a horrifying policy that strips away basic due process protections and exposes vulnerable migrants to torture and death in war-torn countries they've never seen. The administration is openly flouting court orders and treating migrants as disposable, sending people to places like South Sudan without a meaningful opportunity to challenge these life-threatening deportations.


Metaculus Prediction

There's a 60% chance that the U.S. will establish a government program rewarding information leading to deportations before Jan. 3, 2027, according to the Metaculus prediction community.
