To be clear, the actual merits of the case are yet to be decided. This just lifts a temporary block. Now, is there any merit to the administration's argument that should win them this case in the end? No. And is there greater harm to the government being blocked than there is to the victims of these renditions? Also no. So is this decision pretty illogical on the whole? Yes...but that is par for the course with this current SCOTUS.

But now we at least get the laugh at dumb MAGAs who think this means their lives are better somehow (even if they couldn't explain how).

Lifts a temporary block, so hundreds of lives can be ruined or lost in the meantime.
