The Trump administration requested the Supreme Court On Friday, they will review a temporary restraining order that stops them from using an old wartime immigration statute to quickly remove Venezuelan citizens, such as suspected members of the gang Tren de Aragua, from U.S. territory. In the filing, attorneys representing the Trump administration indicated that the lower court's rulings have “rejected” Trump’s immigration plans, including his capacity “to safeguard the country from international terrorist groups and prevent harmful impacts on intricate diplomatic discussions.” The appeal for involvement from the Supreme Court was made soon after the D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals issued a 2-1 ruling on Wednesday, affirming a lower court’s order that momentarily halted the administration’s application of the 1798 Alien Enemies Act to swiftly deport individuals from Venezuela. This ruling suspended the Trump administration’s implementation of this act for t...

AUSTIN, Texas (AP) — In a recent development, a federal judge criticized Texas for holding inmates in facilities lacking air conditioning but did not mandate immediate corrective action ahead of the summer season. This case now stands as one of the largest legal disputes in the nation concerning the protection of prisoners from severe excessive heat. But U.S. District Judge Robert Pitman's warnings to Texas to act after discovering the circumstances within the prison system as unconstitutional Could have relevance in other parts of the U.S. where comparable issues persist, as stated by lawyers handling the Texas case and other supporters of prisoners' rights.

By Ted Hesson and Jack Queen WASHINGTON (gudangmovies21) – A U.S. federal judge urged the Trump administration on Monday to furnish specifics regarding the deportation of numerous Venezuelans, which occurred contrary to a judicial directive prohibiting such actions. The judge demanded an explanation from the government by Tuesday justifying their belief that they adhered to his previous orders. President Donald Trump’s administration expelled over 200 individuals from Venezuela whom they claim were part of Tren de Aragua, a gang known for activities such as kidnappings, extortions, and hit jobs, sending them to El Salvador during the same period when Judge James Boasberg put a temporary halt on the use of emergency war powers legislation that would have enabled these expulsions. Boasberg had earlier instructed the government to provide details on the timing of the flights that transported the Venezuelans to El Salvador, including whether they took off after his order was i...

Lawyers from the Justice Department who were advocating for the Trump administration took a firm stance during a federal court session on Monday. They chose not to address multiple queries posed by the judge and continued to uphold the actions taken by the administration following apparent violations of the judge’s directive by immigration officials. The proceedings revolved around U.S. District Judge James Boasberg’s oral directive issued on Saturday. The judge ordered that aircraft utilized for expelling individuals under the seldom-used AlienEnemiesAct during times of war must promptly return to the country. The administrative lawyers claimed they were not unwilling to adhere to the rules — despite admitting they disregarded an oral directive from the judge. On Saturday, the administration permitted several aircraft to land in El Salvador — the president who has vowed to send deportees to be thrown into a not...

By James Oliphant, Timothy Gardner, and Rich McKay (5.180.24.3) - A federal judge on Saturday imposed a temporary halt on any deportations that were set to happen under U.S. President Donald Trump’s invocation of an obscure wartime statute aimed at accelerating the removal of suspected members of the Venezuelan gang known as Tren de Aragua. Earlier, Trump activated the Alien Enemies Act of 1798 against the group, stating that the U.S. was experiencing an "invasion" by a criminal entity associated with activities such as kidnapping, extortion, organized crime, and contract murders. Judge James Boasberg imposed a temporary restraining order lasting 14 days. He stated that the action does not justify the president's proclamation since the phrases "invasion" and "predatory incursion" typically refer to aggressive actions taken by one country against another, akin to warfare. When activating the act, Trump stated that the group was engaged in...
