The Trump administration has transferred hundreds of immigrants to El Salvador despite a federal judge's order temporarily barring the deportations under an 18th century wartime declaration targeting Venezuelan gang members, officials said Sunday. Flights were in the air at the time of the ruling.
U.S. District Judge James E. Boasberg issued an order Saturday evening blocking the deportations but lawyers told him there were already two planes with migrants in the air — one headed for El Salvador, the other for Honduras. Boasberg verbally ordered the planes be turned around, but they apparently were not and he did not include the directive in his written order.
“Oopsie…Too late,” Salvadoran President Nayib Bukele, a Trump ally who agreed to house about 300 migrants for a year at a cost of $6 million in his country’s prisons, wrote on the social media site X above an article about Boasberg’s ruling. That post was recirculated by White House communications director Steven Cheung.
Secretary of State Marco Rubio, who negotiated an earlier deal with Bukele to house migrants, posted on the site: “We sent over 250 alien enemy members of Tren de Aragua which El Salvador has agreed to hold in their very good jails at a fair price that will also save our taxpayer dollars.”
"Hundreds of violent criminals were sent out of our country," Rubio said in a statement.

Oopsie daisy don’t ya hate it when that happens 😂😂😂 like I’ve been saying just ignore these fools
They aren’t Americans. The ACLU lawyers are free to go to El Salvador to inspect their tattoos if they think ICE made a mistake.
Marbury v Madison was only 5 years later. Should we ignore that too?
They even get a free haircut upon arrival and inprocessing.
Only rulings upheld by the Supreme Court should be obeyed.
Judge Boasberg may want to visit the incarcerated terrorists at their new abode in El Salvador. They could even give him their gang tattoo on his bald head in appreciation for him and the ACLU caring so much for their welfare and so little about the average Americans threatened by their criminal natures.
Taken under advisement, thanks for your interest in the Executive branch.
Have a nice day.
I think the judge needs to immediately fly there to set up his own justice center to assist in processing them.
Biden ignored the courts.
the ‘judge’s’ other past Orders,
such as those protecting Hillary’s crimes,
and those of other friends,
should be examined more closely.
Didn’t realize that judges could override the Commander-in-Chief on military matters!
Damn tired of judges thinking they have presidential powers.
I guess our “Newly Weaponized” Federal Judge Corps can now control and direct military flights.
I believe the entire point of these orders from Federal judges is to set up impeachment attempts after the midterm elections.
Reserve the Judge a seat on the next flight.
“Marbury v Madison was only 5 years later. Should we ignore that too?

Absolutely.
