Justices Clarence Thomas and Samuel Alito dissented.

The high court acted in an appeal from the American Civil Liberties Union contending that immigration authorities appeared to be moving to restart removals under the Alien Enemies Act of 1798 .

Two federal judges refused to step in as lawyers for the men launched a desperate legal campaign to prevent their deportation.

Judge Boasberg found there's probable cause that the Trump administration committed criminal contempt by disobeying his initial deportation ban.

He was concerned that the paper that ICE was giving those held did not make clear they had a right to challenge their removal in court.

ICE said it would not comment on the litigation.
