President Donald Trump railed against the Supreme Court on Monday, which he said has "stymied" him at "every turn."
The Supreme Court recently temporarily blocked the Trump administration from deporting Venezuelan migrants under the Alien Enemies Act. The high court stressed that the targeted migrants must have a chance to challenge their removal in court.
Trump took issue with the high court's actions, despite the court containing three justices he appointed.
"I’m doing what I was elected to do, remove criminals from our Country, but the Courts don’t seem to want me to do that. My team is fantastic, doing an incredible job, however, they are being stymied at every turn by even the U.S. Supreme Court, which I have such great respect for, but which seemingly doesn’t want me to send violent criminals and terrorists back to Venezuela, or any other Country, for that matter — People that came here illegally!" he railed on his Truth Social platform.

Trump accused the Supreme Court of being "intimidated by the Radical Left who are, 'playing the Ref.'" He then praised conservative Justice Samuel Alito, who Trump said "correctly wants to dissolve the pause on deportations."
"He is right on this! If we don’t get these criminals out of our Country, we are not going to have a Country any longer. We cannot give everyone a trial, because to do so would take, without exaggeration, 200 years," Trump bemoaned. "We would need hundreds of thousands of trials for the hundreds of thousands of Illegals we are sending out of the Country. Such a thing is not possible to do. What a ridiculous situation we are in."
In a separate post, the president complained that his predecessor "let Millions of Criminals into our Country, totally unchecked and unvetted, with no Legal authority to do so."
"Yet I, in order to make up for this assault to our Nation, am expected to go through a lengthy Legal process, separately, for each and every Criminal Alien. As usual, TWO DIFFERENT STANDARDS, only leading to the Complete and Total Destruction of the U.S.A. "
