'Woefully insufficient': Trump DOJ gets 'blistering' slap on wrist from deportation judge
Raw StoryThe judge who drew MAGA's ire after ordering the Trump administration to turn around a plane carrying hundreds of migrants as part of the president's mass deportation plan gave the administration another slap on the wrist Thursday afternoon. The DOJ was answering the judge's questions about the administration's decision to ignore his order last weekend to turn around a deportation flight of migrants that authorities have said were Venezuelan gang members. The judge's order indicated the DOJ had an acting field officer for Immigration and Customs Enforcement argue, "I understand that Cabinet Secretaries are currently actively considering whether to invoke the state secrets privilege over the other facts requested by the Court’s order. Doing so is a serious matter that requires careful consideration of national security and foreign relations, and it cannot properly be undertaken in just 24 hours.” But the judge wasn't satisfied with the Trump administration — and gave a "pretty blunt" response, MacFarlane said.
