This week, judges expressed frustration with the Trump administration’s defense tactics in court, accusing them of bad faith, using disingenuous arguments, and making inaccurate claims. One judge, U.S. District Judge James Boasberg, threatened contempt proceedings for the government failing to comply with his orders regarding deportations under the Alien Enemies Act. In a separate case, a federal judge ordered the return of a deportee mistakenly sent to El Salvador.
Despite these setbacks, the Supreme Court granted the administration a win by allowing them to terminate Education Department grants restored by a lower court. It was the first time the Supreme Court sided with Trump in his second administration.
The legal battles of the week included the government facing contempt proceedings for deportations and making missteps in compliance with court orders. In a separate case in Maryland, a judge ordered the return of a deportee who should not have been sent to El Salvador. In California, a federal judge temporarily blocked the administration from ending Temporary Protected Status for Venezuelans. Meanwhile, the administration faced rebukes from judges for disingenuous arguments and inaccurate claims in various cases.
Ultimately, the Supreme Court’s decision to allow the termination of education grants provided relief to the administration. These legal developments highlight the ongoing legal battles and challenges faced by the Trump administration in court.
