Judge Investigates Alleged Defiance of Deportation Block by Trump Administration
Federal Judge James Boasberg probes whether deportation flights violated his court order, as the Trump administration considers invoking state secrets privilege.
- Judge James Boasberg is investigating whether the Trump administration violated his order to halt deportation flights of Venezuelan nationals to El Salvador under the Alien Enemies Act.
- The administration argues that flights already in progress when the order was issued were exempt, but Boasberg has criticized the lack of cooperation and transparency in providing details.
- President Trump has called for Judge Boasberg's impeachment, a move rebuked by Chief Justice John Roberts as inappropriate for judicial disagreements.
- Concerns have been raised about individuals deported without proven gang affiliations or due process, with some families alleging wrongful deportations.
- The administration is debating invoking the state secrets privilege to withhold information about the flights, with a decision expected by March 25.
