A federal judge found probable cause that the Trump administration acted with contempt of court in violating his order to immediately halt deportations of Venezuelans suspected of being gang members.
US District Judge James Boasberg issued an order Wednesday saying that officials acted in “willful disregard” of his verbal order on March 15 to turn around planes carrying Venezuelans now held in a notorious prison in El Salvador. Boasberg said at a court hearing on April 3 that “the government acted in bad faith throughout that day.”
I dunno. It’s never happened in my lifetime, and certainly not with half of the legislative branch being complicit in the descent into fascism.
Like I said, I don’t really have a lot of optimism in their ability to do what is required. On top of that, the enablers aren’t gone just because Trump might be someday. Our collective work is only just beginning, and it starts with little actions like those of the judge in this case.
