Judge James Boasberg issues a three-page order [SEE HERE] demanding the Trump administration deliver cabinet level details about their criminal alien deportation operation. Boasberg claims the information provided to him so far is “woefully inadequate,” and lacks the citations of what cabinet-level officials were involved in deporting criminal illegal aliens and Tren de Aragua gang members protected by a leftist immigration organization employing Judge Boasberg’s daughter. Judge Boasberg appears to be focused on generating a contempt order against the Trump administration. Presumably, this would give Boasberg’s allied Democrats in congress a foothold for their needed 2028 election effort and another...

Senator Rand Paul (R-KY) said Sunday on CBS’s “Face the Nation” that he believed the courts will rule defendants should get due process before they are deported. Host Margaret Brennan said, “There are legal questions around using these authorities to send out detainees without giving them a day in court. There’s questions of how it’s being handled in regard to these individuals who were rejected by El Salvador, one for gender, one because they weren’t Venezuelan at all. Do these concerns does any of this concern you along with claims from their family members that many of these people weren’t...

As he is ramping up deportations of migrants from the U.S., President Trump is battling the backlash from Democrats in Congress, activists on the ground and judges in the courtroom. U.S. District Judge James Boasberg recently imposed a temporary order to halt deportations under the Alien Enemies Act, an 18th-century wartime law. The judge wanted the government to prove that the Trump administration did not defy the order that he issued last weekend to return the flights from Texas that were carrying alleged Venezuelan gang members. Boasberg contended during Thursday’s hearing that the government “evaded” his deadline to fork over...

Julie Kelly 🇺🇸 @julie_kelly2 This new sworn statement signed by an attorney representing one of the five illegal Venezuelans suing Trump adm over the Alien Enemies appears to confirm the five were removed from a plane headed to El Salvador on Saturday evening. So the morons claiming Trump adm ignored a court order related to the original lawsuit and Boasberg's 1st temporary restraining order can STFU. And boy I can't help but think how lucky these illegals are to have a huge stable of lawyers to go to bat for them...good thing they weren't at the Capitol on January 6,...

WASHINGTON — The Justice Department is pushing back against a federal judge's request for more information about the deportation flights that took off over the weekend after President Donald Trump invoked the rarely used Alien Enemies Act. The government submitted a filing Wednesday morning asking for a pause of Boasberg's order to answer his questions. "Continuing to beat a dead horse solely for the sake of prying from the Government legally immaterial facts and wholly within a sphere of core functions of the Executive Branch is both purposeless and frustrating to the consideration of the actual legal issues at stake...

The Left has taken a break Monday from crying over Hamas lover Mahmoud Kahlil being deported to cry about the deportation of hundreds of Venezuelan Tren de Aragua gang members to El Salvador without due process … yes, suddenly they care about due process, but only when it applies to non-citizens. Former FBI counsel Andrew Weismann went on TV to cry about it, and Fox News asked Stephen Miller for his reaction. And it was quite a reaction.

Venezuela has agreed to take back its violent criminal migrants nabbed in the US — including members of the Tren de Aragua gang wreaking havoc on the Big Apple and other cities, President Trump says. “We are in the process of removing record numbers of illegal aliens from all countries, and all countries have agreed to accept these illegal aliens back,” the president wrote on Truth Social on Saturday. “Venezuela has agreed to receive, back into their country, all Venezuela illegal aliens who were encamped in the U.S., including gang members of Tren de Aragua,” Trump said. The announcement comes...

The Trump administration is refusing to back down after far-left DC District Judge James Boasberg, an Obama appointee, blocked the deportation of dangerous Venezuelan gang members, handing a lifeline to criminals instead of protecting American citizens. Boasberg ordered an immediate halt on deportation flights of Tren de Aragua (TDA) gang members, who were being removed under the Alien Enemies Act (1798)—a wartime law explicitly designed to protect Americans from foreign threats. Even more outrageous, the judge went so far as to demand that planes already in the air turn around and bring these violent criminals back into the United States....

Ohio Republican Senator Bernie Moreno is blasting a handful of judges in his state for claiming that “emergency” powers allow them to invalidate federal immigration laws and to prevent ICE from rounding up and deporting illegal aliens... In his March 4 letter, the senator criticized Franklin County Judge Kim Brown and warned her that “no one is above the law,” but added, “And yet, you’re giving illegal aliens a pass.” Moreno expressed his “sincere shock and disgust” at Judge Brown’s position that a county judge has the power to block federal immigration laws and called Brown and her colleagues “rogue...

Migrants who once flooded the U.S. southern border under the Biden-Harris administration are now using the Darien Gap to head home or travel to other foreign countries instead of heading toward the U.S. The border crisis, which became a major issue for both former President Joe Biden and former Vice President Kamala Harris during their campaigns, saw record-high encounters, with officials estimating a total of 10.8 million encounters since fiscal year 2021. With the new administration tightening immigration policies, migrants are reportedly in a “reserve flow,” returning home through routes like the Darien Gap, according to the Associated Press. One...

Attorney General Pam Bondi has issued a stern warning to Democrat governors who are refusing to deport illegal aliens, saying, “You better comply.” Bondi issued the warning during an appearance on Fox News on Friday. Immediately after being sworn in, Bondi filed lawsuits against New York, Illinois, and the city of Chicago for non-compliance and interfering with Immigration and Customs Enforcement’s deportation plans. Illinois Gov. JB Pritzker and New York Gov. Kathy Hochul have claimed they will fight back. Pritzker responded to the lawsuit by saying, “Unlike Donald Trump, we follow the law in Illinois. Now, maybe they put up...

WASHINGTON (AP) — The Trump administration is throwing out protections for roughly half a million Haitians that had shielded them from deportation. The decision announced Thursday means they would lose their work permits and could be eligible to be removed from the country by August of this year. The Department of Homeland Security in a news release said they were vacating a decision by the Biden administration to renew Temporary Protected Status for Haitians. That status gives people legal authority to be in the country but doesn’t provide a long-term path to citizenship. Homeland Security said an estimated 57,000 Haitians...

Breitbart News @BreitbartNews @Sec_Noem: "If you try to enter illegally, you will be caught, you will be removed—and you will NEVER return." From Secretary Kristi Noem 8:58 PM · Feb 17, 2025

Recent court orders slowing down or indefinitely blocking President Donald Trump’s policy blitz have raised the specter that the executive branch might openly flout the federal judiciary and prompted questions about how judges would respond. Any decision by the administration to defy federal courts would immediately implicate profound constitutional questions about separation of powers that have kept each branch of the government in check for centuries. That’s in large part because it would test the power of courts to enforce rulings that are supposed to be the final word. Legal experts say there are few options to force compliance with...

ROME — Pope Francis weighed in on U.S. politics Tuesday, slamming new measures to deport irregular immigrants and insisting that illegal entry into the country is not a crime. The pontiff has taken the extraordinary step of writing an open letter to the U.S. bishops in which he opposes the mass deportation of migrants, while also berating U.S. Vice President J.D. Vance for allegedly misinterpreting the Augustinian concept of “ordo amoris” (the order of love). “I have followed closely the major crisis that is taking place in the United States with the initiation of a program of mass deportations,” he...

Far-left CBS News got some bad news from its latest poll. Currently, 53 percent of the public approves of the job President Donald Trump’s doing and 59 percent approve of his deportation of illegal aliens. What’s most fascinating about this particular poll is that it’s not a poll of voters. Rather, it’s a poll of 2,175 U.S. adults. The GOP tends to poll better with tighter screening for registered voters and likely voters. There is nothing wrong with an “adults” poll, but knowing the fake news artists at CBS News, it’s not unreasonable to assume they asked for an “adults”...
