The minimum baseline is you have an opportunity both to present evidence, factual evidence, and to make legal arguments that the administration doesn't have the authority to do this. And some independent decision maker. will make a judgment as to whether or not they have a right to deport you.

So it is a very minimal level of due process, and it is not itself an extraordinarily time consuming fact, but it does require the administration to submit to some neutral testing of its legal theory and its evidence. So, yeah, go ahead.

And to translate this to our current context, it would mean saying they're saying I'm a member of Trende Aragua, this this Venezuelan gang, because I have a tattoo here. That looks like what they say is a logo of the gang. But in fact, that tattoo is something I put on 20 years ago because it's my favorite soccer team or something like that. And the judge would would scrutinize the evidence.

And so the administration really once it lost on these basic legal principles in the court, it had a very straightforward way to respond. which would be just to say we acknowledge that these people in El Salvador are there only because we are paying millions of dollars to El Salvador to house them for us. So they are in our custody effectively, both legally and practically.

And their lawyers can file habeas petitions and present whatever evidence they can that what was done was unlawful. We can respond. And whatever a court decides, we'll do. And as to the guy in Maryland who was who they've already conceded was erroneously deported. They could bring him back and then give him whatever process and maybe he can be removed to another country.

All of that would be for a judge to decide. All that's being asked of the administration is that they go through that process. But whether because, well, I think it's a mix of political reasons, ideological reasons. psychological, even pathological reasons, they are incapable of doing that. They want this fight and it's turned into a big power struggle. And that's where it ceases being so simple.

I think that's absolutely right. And if you want a really extraordinary example of that, you would look at the order that the court issued at 1 a.m. on Saturday morning this last weekend, because even though they had held that everybody has to be given meaningful notice before they could be removed in this way, there was credible evidence that the administration was loading people onto buses
