A last-minute court order halted the Trump administration's deportation of dozens of Guatemalan minors. A Guatemalan government memo reveals that many parents were unaware of and did not consent to their children's return, with some citing death threats in Guatemala. The memo, referenced in Senate testimony, details the administration's communication with Guatemalan officials about the planned deportations. A federal judge intervened on Sunday, blocking the deportations just as the children boarded planes. Attorneys for the children argued the deportations violated legal process.
