<p><strong>Show Notes</strong></p><p><br></p><p><strong>Episode 194. Perdomo: The Erosion of Individualized Suspicion and the Peril of Probabilistic Policing</strong></p><p><br></p><p>In this episode of the Forge of Freedom podcast, host Alex Ooley discusses the Supreme Court case <em>Noem v. Perdomo</em>, which has significant implications for immigration policies and individual liberties. The case revolves around the legality of detaining individuals based on generalized factors such as race and language, raising concerns about probabilistic policing and its potential to erode constitutional protections. Ooley explores the legal proceedings, the shadow docket's role, and the differing speeds of court decisions regarding executive power versus individual rights.</p><p><br></p><p><strong>Chapters</strong></p><p>00:00 Introduction to the Case and Its Implications</p><p>05:03 The Legal Proceedings and Court Decisions</p><p>10:23 The Shift to Probabilistic Policing</p><p>15:33 Comparative Analysis of Court Decisions</p><p><br></p><p><strong>Resources</strong></p><p><br></p><p>The Reload w/ Professor Rory Little</p><p><a href="https://thereload.com/podcast-how-a-scotus-immigration-case-could-implicate-gun-owners-ft-uc-law-professor-rory-little/"><u>https://thereload.com/podcast-how-a-scotus-immigration-case-could-implicate-gun-owners-ft-uc-law-professor-rory-little/</u></a></p><p><br></p><p><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rYsCbjyQ_ww"><u>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rYsCbjyQ_ww</u></a></p><p><br></p><p>Professor Rory Little on SCOTUSblog</p><p><a href="https://www.scotusblog.com/2025/09/roving-patrols-reasonable-suspicion-and-perdomo/"><u>https://www.scotusblog.com/2025/09/roving-patrols-reasonable-suspicion-and-perdomo/</u></a></p><p><br></p><p><em>Perdomo</em></p><p><a href="https://www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/24pdf/25a169_5h25.pdf"><u>https://www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/24pdf/25a169_5h25.pdf</u></a></p><p><br></p><p><a href="https://www.scotusblog.com/cases/case-files/noem-v-perdomo/"><u>https://www.scotusblog.com/cases/case-files/noem-v-perdomo/</u></a></p><p><br></p><p>Rory Little</p><p><a href="https://www.uclawsf.edu/people/rory-little/"><u>https://www.uclawsf.edu/people/rory-little/</u></a></p><p><br></p><p><a href="https://www.scotusblog.com/author/rory-little/"><u>https://www.scotusblog.com/author/rory-little/</u></a></p><p><br></p><p>The Reload</p><p><br></p><p><a href="https://thereload.com/"><u>https://thereload.com/</u></a></p><p><br></p><p><a href="https://thereload.substack.com/"><u>https://thereload.substack.com/</u></a></p><p><br></p><p><a href="https://thereload.fireside.fm/hosts/stephengutowski"><u>https://thereload.fireside.fm/hosts/stephengutowski</u></a></p><p><br></p><p>YouTube: @TheReloadSite</p><p><br></p><p>X: @StephenGutowski</p><p><br></p><p><strong>Takeaways</strong></p><ul><li><p>The Perdomo case could reshape immigration policies.</p></li><li><p>Probabilistic policing may lead to unjust detentions.</p></li><li><p>The shadow docket allows the Supreme Court to make swift decisions without full transparency.</p></li><li><p>Justice Kavanaugh's concurrence raises concerns about expanding executive power.</p></li><li><p>Justice Sotomayor's dissent highlights the risks of racial profiling.</p></li><li><p>The disparity in court speed suggests a bias towards executive authority.</p></li><li><p>Probabilistic reasoning could justify invasive government actions.</p></li><li><p>The Fourth Amendment's protections are at risk with generalized suspicion.</p></li><li><p>The case serves as a warning for all individual liberties, not just immigration.</p></li><li><p>Future court decisions will be critical in defining the limits of executive power.</p></li></ul><p><br></p><p><strong>Keywords</strong></p><p>Supreme Court, immigration case, Nome vs. Perdomo, shadow docket, probabilistic policing, individual liberty, Fourth Amendment, executive power, Justice Kavanaugh, Justice Sotomayor</p><p><br></p><p>DISCLAIMER: This podcast is for informational purposes only and should not be considered legal, medical, or financial advice.
