I have an idea!
Let’s export all the activist leftist judges!
Suppose the next group scheduled to be flown out are, instead, brought directly to the judge’s courtroom. “Your honor, in accordance with your order, here they are.” “There some more that we have left at your home in the care of your wife”.
Put this crapper worthy judge and Obama on the next deportation fight out to El Salvador. Shackle these clowns for the safety of others
You are one of the few people that I can count on to read and be informed, rather than wallow in ignorance (in some cases willful ignorance) and stomp up and down, so to speak in the thread.
I like courtlistener as it has direct links to PACER, but just is good, thanks for mentioning them.
The most current MINUTE entry about the case:
“MINUTE ORDER: As discussed in today’s hearing, the Court ORDERS that by 12:00 p.m. on March 18, 2025, the Government shall file a Notice, which may, if necessary, be sealed in part, setting forth: 1) A sworn declaration that no one on any flight departing the United States after 7:25 p.m. on March 15, 2025, was removed solely on the basis of the Proclamation at issue; 2) A sworn declaration setting forth when the Proclamation at issue was signed, when it was made public, and when it went into effect; 3) The Government’s best estimate of the number of individuals subject to the Proclamation currently remaining in the United States and how many are currently in U.S. custody; and 4) The Government’s position on whether, and in what form, it will provide answers to the Court’s questions regarding the particulars of the flights. Such form could include in camera review or in a classified setting. If the Government takes the position that it will not provide that information to the Court under any circumstances, it must support such position, including with classified authorities if necessary. So ORDERED by Chief Judge James E. Boasberg on 3/17/2025. (lcjeb1)”
My take - the Government has backed themselves into a corner by refusals to provide information on now two occasions. We’ll see how this goes and if they refuse to provide any information even in an in camera or classified setting.

Nos. 25-5067, 25-5068Dear Mr. Cislak:
Pursuant to Rule 28(j), the Government provides urgent notice of developments below. Yesterday, the Government provided a notice regarding its compliance with the district court’s temporary restraining orders (attached). Overnight, Plaintiffs responded (attached) and asked the district court to compel the Government to address operational details regarding flights that removed aliens identified as associated with a designated foreign terrorist organization (government’s response to same attached). The district court has now set an open, public hearing for 5pm Eastern and ordered that the “Government shall be prepared to provide answers to the questions raised by Plaintiffs.” All of the questions at issue relate to past actions, not prospective compliance with the court’s orders (about which Plaintiffs have raised no issue).
That development escalates the stakes of the district court’s inappropriate exercise of jurisdiction and the risks that the district court may force the government to disclose sensitive national security and operational security concerns or face significant penalties from the court. The Government cannot—and will not—be forced to answer sensitive questions of national security and foreign relations in a rushed posture without orderly briefing and a showing that these questions are somehow material to a live issue. Answering them, especially on the proposed timetable, is flagrantly improper and presents grave risks to the conduct of the Government in areas wholly unsuited to micromanagement supervision by a district court judge.
The district court’s hasty public inquiry into these sensitive national security matters—with no contemplated protections against disclosure of operational details—underscores the urgency of immediate relief from this Court, including an immediate administrative stay that would allow further briefing to unfold in an orderly and appropriate manner and prevents the district court from further efforts to interfere with President Trump’s core Article II authorities, including the conduct of foreign policy. This Court should also immediately reassign this case to another district court judge given the highly unusual and improper procedures—e.g. certification of a class action involving members of a designated foreign terrorist organization in less than 18 hours with no discovery and no briefing from the Government—that have been employed in the district court proceedings to date.

Tomorrow’s hearing will be interesting. Regardless of what Homan said, it sounds like the Government is looking to pause further flights based on news reports.
About the only way I think the Government can tell if someone is part of the Tren de Aragua are tattoos. Having such a tattoo(s) may be the evidence the Government wants to be disclosed to a judge in camera or in a classified setting.
Provide one post that shows I am a Crenshaw "fanboy". Doubtful you can.
I have been critical of Crenshaw on his Red Flag position.
What I do say regarding Crenshaw is to note those who are anti-military who mock the injuries he received in combat (e.g." Eyepatch McCain", etc).
I've also posted that no one who mocks his military injuries has the guts to step out from behind their monitor and say directly to his face.

You’re forgetting how upset you got over him being called Blinky McEyepoke?
Shame, it was hilarious.
I think the evidence they are trying to protect is the precise timing and location of the aircraft, and who was on board. Did they have Tren de Aragua members, or did they round up the usual suspects.
Recall: [Friday 21 February 2025]
Hours after telling a judge exactly how many people are being held in a U.S. military prison at Guantanamo Bay, including immigrants with little or no criminal records, Donald Trump’s administration emptied out the entire facility.A plane carrying nearly 200 Venezuelan immigrants who were detained at the naval base arrived in Venezuela late Thursday, clearing out the Cuban naval base that the president turned into a detention center for immigrants ordered for deportation from the United States.
After the Department of Justice outlined exactly how many immigrants were being held at the facility, and where, while arguing that they do not have any statutory rights to attorneys or legal assistance, “there are no immigration detainees” at the facility, government lawyers wrote.
Justice Department attorneys were responding to a lawsuit from immigration attorneys, civil rights groups and the families of detained immigrants demanding access to the prison to offer legal aid.
The Declaration of J.G.G. goes into the issue of tattoos.

Not upset. Disappointed that there are posters on FR that are anti-military and mock military personnel injured in combat, and simply do to have the intellectual wherewithal to separate the military service from his political service.
And yet still no guts to say it to his face.

A couple of news organizations have determined that one of the planes had not yet taken off by the time of the order from the Judge.
Like I said and linked, I didn’t forget.
And remember, he got community noted.
Crenshaw -9000 Twitter +90000
Community notes are a process.
Mocking his military service from behind d a keyboard is, well, cowardice.
ORDER 3-19-2025 J.G.G. v Trump
Interesting. They’re Government is going to have to provide the information in some form at some point.
Dunno if you are aware, but there was a hearing scheduled the day the worst of the worst, those animals, were rushed out of the country. Someone leaked the information that they were planning to claim emergency powers to rush them out before the court could hold the hearing. This was supposed to be a fait accompli before the court knew what was happening, only it went sideways and someone made the decision to not abort the mission, and here we are.
