A federal judge will question the Trump administration about possible violations of his order preventing the removal of detained noncitizens. Despite the ruling, Tom Homan, the border czar, stated the administration will continue controversial deportations. This situation represents a serious conflict between federal courts aiming to limit executive actions and a defiance from the Trump administration. President Trump also expressed mistrust in judicial decisions, suggesting a broader tension between the executive and judicial branches of government regarding immigration enforcement.
We're not stopping, Mr. Homan said Monday, during an appearance on Fox News. I don't care what the judges think, I don't care what the left thinks. We're coming.
The legal battle over the removal of the immigrants was the latest and perhaps most serious flashpoint yet between federal courts, which have sought to curb many of Mr. Trump's recent executive actions.
Mr. Trump himself expressed skepticism about a ruling last week by a federal judge in California ordering the administration to rehire thousands of fired probationary workers.
An action that could thrust the country into a constitutional crisis, pitting one of the coequal branches of the government against another.
