How ICE defies judges' orders to release detainees, step by step

[C_Clayton_Jones]

"Courts across the country have overwhelmingly rejected the Trump administration’s effort to round up thousands of immigrants and lock them up without a chance for bond — even if they have no criminal records and have lived in the United States for years.

But the Trump administration has slow-walked or outright defied judges’ orders demanding the release of people scooped up by Immigration and Customs Enforcement at an increasingly rapid clip.

Sometimes, ICE has raced detainees across state lines in ways judges say are designed to thwart legal proceedings. Other times, they’re detaining people for days or weeks after judges have ordered them released. ICE officials have at times ignored other arms of the federal government trying to ensure compliance with court orders. And sometimes the administration has given judges bad or incomplete information.

A POLITICO review of hundreds of cases brought by ICE detainees across the country shows judges increasingly furious and exhausted by the Trump administration’s tactics."

Nothing surprising about this, of course.

The criminal, lawless Trump regime is infamous for its contempt for the courts, the rule of law, and the Constitution.

And of course, the Trump regime will continue to violate the law and ignore lawful court orders.

If they are here illegally...they have committed a crime.

Those judges sure are furious that Trump's admin is slowing down illegals eager to get back to human and drug traficking!

They stress out thinking about five year olds potentially escaping from a meat-packing plant, a brothel, or a cotton field, because ICE detained some overseers pending deportation.

Those are overwhelmingly entry level partisan democrat judges that are overstepping their authority

Mere road blocks...to slow things down.

Exactly

Its a rear guard action

Obstructionist judges, fighting for the Democrat-communist cause.

There is nothing to defy because nothing illegal is being done in the capture OF illegals

So they found ways to go around the courts decision? Sounds familiar.

Someone please explain how a court can make a ruling that violates the law…

I think it’s time for another several bus loads to be dropped off in Martha’s Vineyard so we can be reminded what the left really thinks about illegals
