Judge says “fair likelihood” administration violated his deportation order

A federal judge is weighing in on the recent deportation of alleged Venezuelan gang members. At a Thursday hearing, U.S. District Judge James Boasberg said there’s a “fair likelihood” the Trump administration violated his court order last month. The judge temporarily blocked the deportation of alleged Venezuelan gang members while he considered a lawsuit challenging the administration’s use of an 18th century law. The administration failed to return two deportation flights that were in the air at the time he issued the order.
