Live from NPR News in Washington, I'm Giles Snyder.
The Supreme Court is ordering the Trump administration to temporarily halt plans to use the wartime Alien Enemies Act to deport alleged Venezuelan gang members from a detention facility in North Texas.
The brief order overnight followed an emergency appeal filed by the American Civil Liberties Union.
Here's M.P.R.s, you're meant up a steal.
Justices wrote that the government is directed to not remove any member of the,
quote, punitive class of detainees from the United States until further order from the court.
These would be some of the Venezuelan migrants being held at the Blue Bonnet facility in Texas.
Justices Clarence Thomas and Samuel Alito dissented.
Maryland Democratic Senator Chris Van Hollen says the Kilmorrow-Bergo Garcia case is not just about one man,
it's about protecting constitutional rights.
Van Hollen spoke to reporters following his return to the U.S. from El Salvador where he met with a Bergo Garcia after a meeting was initially rejected.
The Bergo Garcia is the man the Trump administration has acknowledged it mistakenly deported.
Van Hollen says he has been moved from the Salvadoran prison for gang members to a detention center with better conditions.
The Trump administration reclassifying 50,000 federal workers to make it easier to fire them.
The move follows mass firings under ELAH-Must Department of Government Efficiency.
And here's Daniel Kurtzleben has more.
The Office of Personnel Management proposed a rule that would move the reclassification process forward.
Trump will still have to sign another executive order to implement it.
The policy is also known as Schedule F and it would remove federal civil service protections from around 2 percent of the federal workforce according to the White House.
Those workers would instead be at-will employees who serve at the pleasure of the sitting president.
