NEW💥: The Trump administration has REFUSED to comply with a federal court order demanding due process for 252 Venezuelan migrants—alleged gang members deported to El Salvador under the Alien Enemies Act—calling it judicial overreach.
The Justice Department rejected options to return them or facilitate hearings abroad as legally impossible and a national security risk, vowing immediate appeal if the order is enforced.
The standoff with Obama-appointed Judge James Boasberg highlights contrasts to the Obama era, when 75% of deportees (313,000 in fiscal 2012 alone) never saw a judge—with no similar court interference.
