Secretary of State Marco Rubio said on Friday Court order Requiring the US government for custody of retirees on flights intended for South Sudan requires “provoking serious and irreparable harm to US foreign policy.”
The Trump administration filed two court documents late Friday after a US district judge, Massachusetts judge, said. Deportation The flight violated an injunction in April before allowing Decorty to challenge an order sent to a country other than his own.
“The Justice Department believes this situation urgently requires judicial intervention to restore full powers to implement President Trump’s foreign policy,” a US Department of Justice official told Fox News Digital.

Before the court’s intervention, Rubio said the South Sudanian government refused to accept South Sudanian people, but has since “taken steps to work more cooperatively with the US government.”

In its second submission, the administration asked the court to “review” the order and “very burdensome requirements.”
“For this court order, [the U.S. government is] “The court is currently detaining dangerous offenders in sensitive places without clear knowledge of when, how and where it will tolerate release,” the filing said.
“This development has given unacceptable and burdensome constraints to the President’s ability to carry out his Article 2 powers, including his power to command the military, manage relations with foreign countries and enforce immigration authorities in our country.”
Denner claimed that “received the benefit of the full process under US law and was legally removed from the country,” and called for a stay if not a reconsideration of the order.
“These offenders simply stated that they were afraid to remove them in South Sudan to receive the other procedures necessary in the court’s injunction on April 18, 2025,” the administration wrote. “Aliens did not. Therefore, DHS tried to remove these aliens who committed the most condemning violations of our country’s laws, where they no longer pose a threat to the United States.”
