US forces leave Iraq while SCOTUS backs Trump border policy
Everything is happening at once, and it feels like the scriptwriter for this year is just messing with us.
The last of the US troops just packed up and left Iraq, which leaves the whole region wondering what’s coming next. Meanwhile, the Supreme Court decided to keep Donald Trump's deportation policy in play for the time being, effectively telling lower courts to hold off on their meddling.
It is a whiplash week of global retreat and domestic tightening. One minute the military is exiting the desert, the next the highest court in the land is greenlighting a massive immigration shake-up. Nobody seems to have a clear roadmap, but the goalposts are definitely moving.
Governance by pendulum swing is the new American tradition.
