Department of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem directed hundreds of Venezuelan nationals to be removed from the United States despite a federal judge demanding that deportation flights turn around.
The Justice Department filed a formal complaint against Judge James Boasberg, accusing him of misconduct and demanding that he be removed from an ongoing deportation case.
Judge James Boasberg announced that he has found probable cause to hold the Trump administration in criminal contempt for disobeying his order to halt deportation flights.
