This is insane!
Trump Administration Under Fire for Enforcing National Security Law
In a dramatic legal twist, a federal judge appointed by Barack Obama is threatening the Trump administration with criminal contempt for moving quickly to deport illegal foreign nationals under the 1798 Alien Enemies Act, a rarely used but fully legal tool for protecting the homeland.
The controversy centers on U.S. District Judge James Boasberg, who accused the administration of ignoring a temporary restraining order meant to halt deportation flights. The deportees—many of whom are suspected of criminal activity or ties to extremist networks—were removed to El Salvador following President Trump’s executive action under the long-standing national security law.
📌 Fact: The Alien Enemies Act has only been used three times in U.S. history—each during wartime.
Despite the Supreme Court later ruling that Boasberg’s order lacked legal merit, the judge continues to pursue contempt proceedings against Trump-era officials.
White House Defends Action: “America Comes First”
White House spokesperson Steven Cheung responded forcefully:
“We intend to appeal without delay. President Trump remains fully dedicated to protecting American families by making sure that violent criminals and illegal migrants with ties to terrorism are no longer a danger to our communities.”
The deportees were transferred to Salvadoran custody under a $6 million agreement, which covers housing and security costs for one year. The administration argues the removals were fully lawful, and any claims of contempt are politically motivated.
Legal Overreach? Judge Pushes Contempt Despite Supreme Court Decision
In his ruling, Boasberg accused the administration of acting “gleefully” and “deliberately” in defiance of his court order. However, legal experts point out that the Supreme Court unanimously acknowledged migrants are entitled to challenge deportation—but must do so through proper legal channels, such as habeas petitions filed where they’re held.
Critics say Boasberg is ignoring this ruling and playing politics from the bench. His demand that the government “propose options” to purge its alleged contempt—even though no law was broken—is seen as judicial overreach.
🛑 Did You Know? Judge Boasberg was appointed by President Obama and previously nominated to a local court by President George W. Bush.
Growing Backlash: Conservatives Slam Deep State Interference
Supporters of President Trump see this as another attempt by the Deep State and judicial activists to undermine strong, lawful immigration enforcement. Across conservative media and legal circles, Boasberg’s actions are being blasted as a thinly veiled political attack.
“This is exactly what Americans are tired of,” said a former DHS official. “The President followed the law. The judge is trying to rewrite it from the bench.”
Lawsuits and Legal Chaos: More Migrants Sue to Block Deportation
Since the Supreme Court decision, at least seven new lawsuits have been filed in states like New York, Texas, and California by foreign nationals seeking to avoid deportation under the Alien Enemies Act. The Trump administration remains firm, asserting that once individuals are removed from U.S. soil, American courts have no jurisdiction over their status.
Final Word: Trump Prioritizes Americans—Despite Political Roadblocks
This case underscores the ongoing battle between America First leadership and a judicial system increasingly used to block it. While legacy media focuses on legal drama, everyday Americans understand what’s really happening: a President doing everything in his power to protect the nation, while entrenched bureaucrats and activist judges try to stop him.
