Sparks flew during a closely-watched federal appeals court hearing Monday afternoon — with a Barack Obama-appointed judge tearing into the Trump administration’s plans to mass-deport alleged members of the Venezuelan gang Tren de Aragua.
Judge Patricia Millett, a member of the bench since 2013, dominated much of the questioning — grilling a Justice Department lawyer over due process concerns for the 260 purported illegal migrants shipped to a notorious El Salvador prison earlier this month under the 1798 Alien Enemies Act.
“There were planeloads of people. There were no procedures in place to notify people,” Millett exclaimed at one point. “Nazis got better treatment under the Alien Enemies Act than has happened here.”
...
“We certainly dispute the Nazi analogy,” shot back deputy assistant attorney general Drew Ensign, defending the Trump administration, shot back. “But more importantly, the fact is that individual plaintiffs were able to file habeas in time in order to secure relief the five individual plaintiffs.”
Millett responded that “it just feels like there was no time” told Ensign the habeas corpus cases — used to challenge wrongful detentions — “were only able to be filed because the district court froze things.”

This judge will lose.
Millett’s aggressive tone could backfire by pushing the GOP-appointed judges to appear more balanced and restrained.
Just ignore this little Nazi. Force Roberts to get involved.

It takes one to know one.
Democrat judges are terrorists.
I notice NONE of them are outraged over what was done to Laken, Rachel, and Jocelyn, apparently they are fine with American citizens being slaughtered by illegals
Many Nazis were hanged.
What another judge? Interesting! Are they protecting the 1st judge? Bring in reinforcements?
habeas corpus can be suspended in cases of ***invasion***
As rough the prison in El Salvador is, it is NOT the concentration camp.
The prisoners seem well fed and dressed in clean clothing. They are not being worked to death. Poison gas in not being applied. No executions are being held. And, they are guilty!
I think, the biggest punishment is to share cell with 80 other gangsters! That, I admit, must be rough!

who is paying them off ?
otherwise, why would they care ?
If we wanted the judge’s opinion on this topic we would have elected them.
They become gods in their second year of law school and tower over us mere mortals.
That's because they were tried in an international court in Nuremberg you moron, and not in this country.
This judge should be disqualified from the case for clearly biased and inflammatory statements.
‘Nazis got better treatment’

Which is actually the “Best Indicator Yet”, of proper and serious focus, in our fight to save this country from those who would rather feast upon its ashes.

The illegal aliens were notified ...
They knew they were breaking the law and would be deported the day they entered the United States...
Trump may have to announce: “To all Americans, I’ve had it. I’m done with America’s judges who want more rape, murder, robbery, looting in America, therefore, in 72 hours, I will order the military to destroy the southern border wall, recall all Federal border agents, tell the DEA, FBI, and ICE to release all illegal immigrants from their jails, and open up all the federal prisons.”
