Angered that an immigrant mother and her daughter who are plaintiffs in a lawsuit had been deported, a federal judge demanded the administration turn the plane carrying them around and stop removing people from the country who are seeking protection from gangs and domestic violence.
The court ruling came in a lawsuit filed by the American Civil Liberties Union. According to a statement by the ACLU, while U.S. District Judge Emmet Sullivan was hearing arguments in the case, the court learned that the Trump administration had put a mother and a daughter who are plaintiffs in the lawsuit on a flight to Central America.
Sullivan, who had been assured by the government in open court that no plaintiffs in the suit would be deported before midnight Friday, ordered the plane turned around, the ACLU said.

For now you have to head for the hills and mountains.
you aren’t a king judge, you’re just playing one...like your friends are...
It seems that the law of finding refugee status, was that people were suppose to go to the closest NEIGHBOR..and apply for asylum. Why didn;t this person apply for asylum in Belize or in Mexico?
Neither. It is supposed to be We The People via Congress.
There's a pretty big chance that's what's going to kick off the next Civil War.
The fact of the matter is that the Constitution in Article 4, Section 4 mandates that the federal government protect the several States from invasion — and if the President were to actively enforce this, especially militarily (which is infinitely more justifiable than war with Russia, Syria, Iran, [Insert Middle-East Country]), the courts would trip over themselves to invalidate those orders and, likely, the Congress would move to impeach… which is the height of irony: Trump's failure to repel the ongoing invasion [along with the past 20-years worth of presidents] actually is an impeachable offense, but that's the one thing where they can't impeach him otherwise it ideologically works against them and shows them to be complicit.
Even more fun is to contemplate the possibility of such officials trying to impeach him for upholding and honoring the Constitution: in the above scenario, the president would be working to end an invasion as per the Constitution, therefore an attempt to remove him for this would be both undermining/betraying the Constitution as well as providing aid and comfort to the enemies of the states. That is treason, and the Congress is not privileged from arrest for treason, and so instigating the above would be a good way to clear out politicians who are not loyal to the Constitution as their oath requires.
A judge taking word from the ACLu which is a civil liberties shop violating my speech since my tax money subsidize their opinions!
It is all a fraud and kabuki theater
There is no justice, just winks and nods between people on the same government globalist opinion making teet side
Funny thing: all of this can be sidestepped pretty easily, as I show in post #25.
All Trump has to do to prep the ground is two things: (a) tweet out the real numbers for the illegal population, as it's likely closer to 30 Million than the always-constant "11 Million" the press and government agencies say; and (b) get a governor, preferably of a southern border-state, to declare a state of emergency deploying their National Guard and demanding that the President uphold Article 4, Section 4.
Neither of these are strictly necessary, but they cut the legs out of a lot of the objections that could be made if the president were to act on his own. The Constitution should be enough of a justification to act, but the Judiciary has so usurped power and authority from the Constitution that they've convinced whole generations that the Constitution is whatever the Supreme Court says it is
.
three branches, executive and judicial and legislative. Separation of powers. However, the court should have ruled and let the executive branch execute the ruling.
The horse was already out of the barn, the bell had already rung.
“Judge orders plane carrying deported mother and child turned around, blocks more removals”
Hey judgey, while you are at it why don’t you order the California fires stopped or command cancer to cease and desist? Asswipe.
“...but the Judiciary has so usurped power and authority from the Constitution..”
A few impeachments and public executions would tamp down their ardor.
Where is “IKE” when we need him. Back in the 50’s “Operation Wetback” was highly successful in taking these criminals who violated our immigration laws back to where they came from. Of course that was way, way, way back when we actually enforced laws and didn’t make exceptions for groups that made a lot of noise when they were forced to obey the laws of this country. Now look at us: You choose which laws you want to obey and discard the rest. It’s “so-called” civil rights.
You have to ask?
How about we don’t turn around planes and if the judges are so worried, they can take themselves down to Mexico to wherever to finish the trial.
Let me guess - no actual law is cited to support this judge’s opinion.
Because the law does not grant political asylum for those who claim to be threatened by local street crime, or in their personal relationships - only from systematic repression from hostile Governments. Even then, it is not a right - we can’t take everyone from an oppressive country, and never have.
What could possibly be a broader basis for the whole world to migrate to the USA, on full welfare (which is give to asylees, unlike regular immigrants)? Granting asylum based on an entirely internal mental state?
I feel oppressed with sadness, from living in a s**thole country - put me up and pay all my bills from now on, or I shall call you are a racist.
“The article did not mention that the plane DID NOT turn around?”
Is that the case?
Another Leftist dingbat opens the door into his own face after being baited by Trump.
Trump should overrule the judge. It’s time for a showdown with these tin horn judges who constantly stonewall the POTUS.
This will not stop until the planes don’t turn around.
I'd hope so, but the fact of the matter is the Judiciary would revolt at being checked like that: they're too used to their unassailable positions as black-robed god-kings, having made themselves above and immune from the law… considering all that, it'll probably take nooses lifting them off the ground to bring them down to earth.
