Judge: 'Probable cause' to hold U.S. in contempt over Alien Enemies Act deportations

Alternatively, the government must provide the name of the person or people who chose not to halt Alien Enemies Act deportations out of the U.S. despite his order — and Boasberg said he would refer them for prosecution.

Betting pool is open! Who do we think Drump and Co are going to throw under the bus this time?

Then do it!

Who is going to hold the executive branch accountable? If they ignore the courts there is no one to hold them accountable.

People are understandably pessimistic but Trump is playing too fast and stupid. He's juggling about a dozen knives right now. It's not sustainable.

I feel like there's a weird number of people here who are rooting against the boring legalese solution to this problem.

Courts are not going to help you. They haven't for a long time. Wake up.

Anyone threatened with any jail time is going to get pardoned by Trump.

This is good to know. I will assume that those in power will take action. Whew! /s

Sounds good to me. About the only way to make it stick is to arrest Trump and hold him in a cage where he belongs, but that has its own complications...

I wonder who Judge Boasberg will hire as Special Prosecutor?
