Trump Deportations to South Sudan Violate Court Order
Tap title to read story
A judge ruled that the Trump administration violated a court order by attempting to deport Asian immigrants to South Sudan. The Justice Department and Secretary Rubio argued that blocking the deportations would harm humanitarian aid efforts in the region, a claim disputed given the administration's cuts to foreign aid. The immigrants, accused of crimes, are currently held at a U.S. military base in Djibouti. The judge's order prevents deportations to countries where individuals face persecution without due process. The administration contends it complied with the order, while the judge found the deportations violated his prior injunction.
