The nation of Rwanda has officially brokered a deal with the Trump administration and will become one of about a dozen nations actively taking third-country refugees from the United States.

This comes in light of the administration’s policy to remove those in the United States illegally, whether their country of origin wants to take them back or not, as Newsmax reported.

The Aug. 5 announcement stipulated that the nation would accept up to 250 deportees who are not citizens of the United States or Rwanda.

Previously, the Trump administration deported hundreds of illegal immigrants from Venezuela and other countries that don’t have deportation agreements with the United States. At this point, those whose home nations do not want them back have gone to Costa Rica, El Salvador, Panama, and several other naitons.

Supreme Court Decision

The Supreme Court ruled at the end of June that a lower court’s decision to delay the Trump administration’s deportation of illegal immigrants to a third country was illegal, and the deportations were allowed to move forward.

The Supreme Court decision allowed the administration to continue as if it were law, but did not preclude the legal challenge from continuing.

This was a reversal of Judge Brian Murphy of the U.S. District Court for the District of Massachusetts’s decision last month, which stated that those with “credible fear” of retrobution in their nation must get at least 15 days to challenge the deportations.

The Trump administration has already deported at least 13 illegal immigrants to the African nations of Sudan and Eswatini.

From The Liberals

A dissent from the court’s liberal judges accused the conservative majority of “rewarding lawlessness.”

"The government has made clear in word and deed that it feels itself unconstrained by law, free to deport anyone, anywhere without notice or an opportunity be heard,” said Justice Sonia Sotomayor in the dissent.

The justice said that the administration was "in violation of unambiguous" court orders when it flew noncitizens to Guantanamo Bay, and eventually to El Salvador.

Sotomayor asserted that “the government removed six people to South Sudan, with less than 16 hours notice."
