The Trump administration has filed a lawsuit against all 15 federal judges in Maryland, challenging an order that blocks the immediate deportation of immigrants seeking judicial review of their detention. This move represents a significant escalation in the administration's conflict with the judiciary as it seeks to assert executive authority over immigration enforcement. The Justice Department has expressed growing frustration with federal judges who have opposed various executive actions. Attorney General Pamela Bondi criticized these judicial challenges, asserting they undermine President Trump's legal authority and agenda.

It's extraordinary, and it's escalating DOJ's effort to challenge federal judges," said Laurie Levenson, emphasizing the significance of the Justice Department's actions.
President Trump's executive authority has been undermined since the first hours of his presidency by an endless barrage of injunctions designed to halt his agenda," stated Attorney General Pamela Bondi.
The order blocks the removal of immigrants until a habeas corpus petition is filed and reviewed, challenging the president's legal authority.
