This is the court "order" Trump should ignore. What will Boasberg do?
This is a ministerial act by President Trump, and SCOTUS has said in the past that such cannot be challenged in court.
... ordering any flights carrying the supposed criminals to turn around.
US District judge James Boasberg quickly ordered the Trump administration to halt all removals after the commander in chief signed off on a presidential action invoking the 1798 law – aimed at targeting Venezuelan prison gang Tren de Aragua, The Washington Post reported.
The chief judge in the District of Columbia said he heard that “flights are actively departing” and directed US officials to have planes in the air carrying migrants returned to the United States, the outlet reported.
“Any plane containing these folks that is going to take off or is in the air needs to be returned to the United States however that is accomplished,” Boasberg reportedly wrote.
“Make sure it’s complied with immediately.”
It comes as Trump made efforts late Saturday to expand the use of the order to deport migrant gang members nationwide.
