In a 2-1 decision, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit upheld the March 15 ruling from Boasberg that temporarily halted deportations under the Alien Enemies Act after ordering that the government’s “emergency motions for stay be denied,” according to court documents reviewed by Newsweek.

Trump’s Bimbo #1, Karoline Leavitt (not the brightest bulb on the planet), got smacked down.

President Donald Trump’s press secretary, Karoline Leavitt, responded tersely after being corrected by a journalist regarding her assertion that the judge who obstructed the Alien Enemies Act was a “democratic activist.”

After Leavitt’s remarks, a reporter promptly interjected, “He [the judge] was originally appointed by George W. Bush and elevated by Obama. Feel I should clear that up.”

Taken aback, Leavitt swiftly countered, although she is accustomed to scrutiny for spreading misinformation during briefings. Nevertheless, the correction elicited subtle grins from other journalists in attendance.

Due process? Why bother? El Salvador’s government knows how to lock people up without fair trials. Just leave it to them!

President Donald Trump’s administration will pay El Salvador $6 million to imprison for one year about 300 alleged members of the Venezuelan Tren de Aragua gang, in one of the first instances of the Central American country taking migrants from the United States.

The agreement follows discussions between El Salvador’s President, Nayib Bukele, and Secretary of State Marco Rubio about housing migrants in El Salvador’s notorious prison. Bukele’s government has arrested more than 84,000 people, sometimes without due process, since 2022 as part of his crackdown on gang violence in the small country.
