THENATIONALPULSE (Christopher Tomlinson) - ‘Third Country’ Deportations Could Transform Immigration Enforcement—and Close One of the System’s Biggest Loopholes.

The Trump Administration secured a victory in the Supreme Court this week that will allow the government to resume deporting illegal aliens whose countries, for one reason or another, refuse or are unable to take them back. Since President Donald J. Trump took office in January of 2025, over 25,000 illegal aliens have already been deported to third countries, but legal challenges paused the policy in February of this year.

We are 100% reader-funded. The pause presented a real problem for the Trump administration in terms of dealing with potentially violent or criminal illegals who could not be sent home because their countries refused to take them back. The administration has described third-country deportations as an important mechanism to remove people who would otherwise have to remain in the United States. Meaningless Deportation Orders.  Deportations go through a variety of stages, from warnings and court hearings to the eventual physical removal of those deemed to…Open

How has the Trump administration utilized third countries to facilitate removals and what are the associated costs?
The administration has established a network of 35 different countries to receive foreign nationals, having already sent over 25,000 illegal aliens to 29 countries. In return, these countries have collectively received over $49 million in U.S. government funding.

According to a 2024 GAO report, what were the specific numbers for Vietnamese and Laotian nationals awaiting travel documents for deportation?

Why does the Supreme Court's previous ruling in Zadvydas v. Davis (2001) create challenges for ICE regarding deportations?
Under Zadvydas v. Davis (2001), the Supreme Court ruled that migrants awaiting deportation cannot be held indefinitely and that authorities like ICE can generally only hold them for a six-month period. This has resulted in thousands of illegal aliens, including convicted criminals, being released back into the United States when their home countries refuse to accept them.

A cybersecurity engineer used OpenAI’s GPT-6 Astra to decode a 217-year-old cipher letter tied to Napoleon Bonaparte, unlocking military orders unread since 1809. Carter Church, an engineer at SentinelOne, broke a long-sealed message sent to French general Auguste de Marmont by Napoleon’s stepson Eugene, the Viceroy of Italy. The letter had sat unread for 217 years after its cipher key was lost. Daily Mail reporting describes a 1809 dispatch that opens with one line of French, then runs 24 lines of two-digit numbers, stray letters, and invented symbols. Church fed a single image of the plate into GPT-6 Astra, the OpenAI model he used for the job, and the system finished the full multi-modal workflow in six hours. On March 16, 1809,…Open

What specific technical tasks did the GPT-6 Astra model perform to crack the cipher from a single image?
The model sliced a 1,202-by-1,836 plate into rows, read the marks, and determined which of 175 hand-drawn signs represented the same character written twice before breaking the code.
Q&A ID 0285dc5a-3c66-4d8e-b4da-d771589f854e
According to the decoded text, what were the troop strengths and locations for various military forces?
The decoded passage provides the following force counts and locations: 40,000 Bavarians at Munich and Passau; 30,000 Poles on the Vistula; 80,000 French troops at Bayreuth; 60,000 men at Ulm and Donauwörth; 40,000 elite troops at Augsburg and along the Lech; and the army of Friuli numbering 80,000 men.

Researchers finished their first full field season at Turkey’s boat-shaped Durupınar formation, drilling over 60 feet deep for soil that may hold clues to Noah’s Ark. The Noah’s Ark Research Project has wrapped its first full season of fieldwork near Mount Ararat in eastern Turkey, pushing deeper than ever into the famous Durupınar site. For the first time, the team used deep-core drilling and reached depths of 20 meters, more than 60 feet, in some spots. Crews pulled more than 300 soil samples from varying depths inside and outside the formation. Those samples are headed for laboratory analysis this winter, aimed at spotting signs of man-made activity or material consistent with decayed wood. Project vice president Andrew Jones…Open
