That argument was relentlessly criticized by the three-judge panel presiding over the case, and their comments quickly viral. The heated exchange has contributed to a national outcry over the Trump Administration’s treatment of detained children and highlights the Ninth Circuit’s role in checking Trump’s immigration policies.
