Trump's DOJ Lawyers Creep Closer to Contempt of Court

from Justice Matters with Glenn Kirschner

In the ongoing litigation over whether the Trump administration violated Judge James Boasberg's order to turn around planes which were carrying Venezuelan immigrants to El Salvador - DOJ attorneys are now refusing to provide additional information about who was deported and when the planes took off and landed. Those attorneys are claiming that such information can't be disclosed under the "state secrets" doctrine. Glenn takes on the contention that the information being sought by Judge Boasberg to determine if the Trump administration violated his orders and should be held in contempt - can't safely be disclosed to the judge, who, incidentally, is also the Chief Judge of the U.S. Alien Terrorist Removal Court. Could it be that the real reason the Trump administration won't provide this basic information to the judge is because it will prove that they violated the judge's order?If you're interested in supporting our all-volunteer efforts, you can become a Team Justice patron at: / glennkirschner  If you'd like to support Glenn and buy Team Justice and Justice Matters merchandise visit:https://shop.spreadshirt.com/glennkir...Check out Glenn's website at https://glennkirschner.com/Follow Glenn on:Threads: https://www.threads.net/glennkirschner2Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/glennkirschner2Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/glennkirsch...Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/glennkirschn...TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/glennkirschner2See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
