The Trump administration continued Tuesday to deny any wrongdoing in how it handled deportations of alleged members of the Venezuelan gang Tren de Aragua, saying in a court filing it did not violate Judge James Boasberg’s order blocking the deportations—though the judge has previously suggested he doesn’t buy the government’s arguments.
The Trump administration declined to provide specifics about deportation flights to El Salvador that were sent out as a result of President Donald Trump’s Saturday executive order invoking the Alien Enemies Act, after Boasberg asked them to disclose additional information, claiming providing it would be “inappropriate” because “there was no violation of the Court’s written order” and the government is asking a federal appeals court to allow the deportations.

e; added that first paragraph and adjusted the headline to make it more clear that this is a new and written refusal to answer this judge’s question, not the one that happened orally at the hearing on March 17th
Charge the lawyer with contempt and lock them up.
Then the question becomes who will the cops side with.
That’s not a question. They’ll side with the authoritarian. They always do.
Those people are disappeared now, aren’t they?
I believe the quote from the warden was “none of them will ever go back to their communities”.
So, yeah. Shits fucked.
Claims ‘No Violation’ Of Judge Boasberg’s Order
Then you should have no problem showing us.
At this point it seems pretty clear that no more planes are actively planned. I don’t think the judge is going to try to claw those poor people out of the Salvadoran prison.
Might as well slow down a bit, litigate the appeal, and litigate the preliminary injunction to get something more permanent. Then move for sanctions and/or contempt. Let the news cycle recycle, then hit it.
FuckFace is asking for a Constitutional Whatnot to go down right away.
That would actually be more honest than what he’s doing - he’s violating court orders and ignoring the constitution while claiming he’s not, so now all the pundits will say “Is America in a constitutional crisis? It’s hard to say…” when it very much is not.
Sooner he can make it happen, better for him in his fucked-up estimation…
Thinks he just might have the courts where he wants them.
Controlling the Court(s) is a goal.
Subverting the Constitution is the goal.
Collecting all the power in the Executive Branch is the ultimate goal.
🤡 🤡 🖕 🖕 🖕
The government is pleading the fifth.
I’ll try that jedi mind trick the next time I get pulled over, “No violation to see here sir”
