Excerpt:

President Donald Trump continues fighting multiple legal battles to fulfill his promises to the American people.

These battles are mostly against activist federal judges who are working overtime to stop the president from exercising his executive authority.

According to Breitbart, that was evidenced once again this week as an Obama-appointed federal judge “blocked the deportation of hundreds of thousands of Cuban, Haitian, Nicaraguan, and Venezuelan migrants with temporary protected status (TPS) after it was revoked.”

The ruling is the latest in efforts to wage “lawfare” against Trump and his administration on the deportation front and his broader immigration policies.

It came in the wake of the Trump administration’s removal of TPS from nearly 500,000 immigrants.

Excerpt:

Venezuela’s socialist regime launched a new website Tuesday that allows individuals to report alleged “unjust deportations” of Venezuelan illegal migrants from the United States “before it’s too late.”

The website is managed by the “Committee for the Defense of Venezuelan Migrants,” an organization directly affiliated with the Venezuelan socialist regime that describes itself as an organization “committed to the defense and promotion of human rights focused on denouncing and making visible the situation of Venezuelan migrants in the U.S.”

“We are a collective committed to the defense and promotion of human rights focused on denouncing and making visible the particular situation of vulnerability of Venezuelan citizens in the United States, whose presidential policy has been dedicated to stigmatize migration,” the website reads. “The persecution, imprisonment and deportation of Venezuelans without due process is an aberration that should not be indifferent to us and that constitutes an anachronistic and illegal act that evokes the most nefarious episodes of human history.”

Center could ‘conflict with Trump’s executive order,’ education expert says

Michigan State University recently opened a $38 million Multicultural Center to act as a “sanctuary” for “minorities” with rooms designated for “diversity, equity, and inclusion” student groups.

An education expert told The College Fix the center could violate President Donald Trump’s recent executive order banning DEI initiatives in federally funded institutions.

“The MSU Multicultural Center (MCC), guided by a student-developed mission, aims to provide a supportive space for students from historically oppressed backgrounds to learn, grow, and access the resources necessary to succeed and graduate from a predominantly white institution,” the room reservation page for the center states.

Further, “the building will be a sanctuary for all minorities at MSU,” the center’s feasibility report states. It will also allow “an opportunity for others to acknowledge the past, learn about who we are today, and grow by not fearing what they don’t understand or haven’t had the chance to experience.”

White House avoiding ‘iffy territory’ by pausing deportation flights: Byron York– www.washingtonexaminer.com

Excerpt:

Byron York suggested that the Trump administration is possibly seeking to avoid legal trouble by pausing its deportation flights after a recent court order was issued.

The White House confirmed on Wednesday that it is currently not planning further deportation flights for the Venezuelan gang Tren de Aragua. This comes after Chief Judge James Boasberg in Washington’s district court ordered a two-week halt of the deportations on Saturday.

In the wake of this news, York noted how Trump himself has said that his administration will not defy a court order, and the White House’s move is due to the administration seeking to stay out of “iffy territory” amid litigation.

“I thought an important point in the briefing was Karoline Leavitt trying to place all of the lawsuits that the Trump Administration is facing, I don’t know how many there are right now, she tried to place them all as a continuation of the lawfare that President Trump experienced both when he was in office the first time, his four years out of office, and now as president again,” York, the Washington Examiner’s chief political correspondent, said on Fox News’s America Reports.

Excerpt:

The Department of Justice continued Wednesday to push back against a federal judge’s request for information about Venezuelan migrant deportations and whether it defied a court order, saying the request is “continuing to beat a dead horse.”

The big picture: It’s the latest response in the back and forth between the Trump administration and U.S. District Judge James Boasberg, who has repeatedly requested that the government provide details on the migrant deportation flights conducted over the weekend.

  • Boasberg extended the filing deadline to Thursday from Tuesday’s initial deadline for the DOJ to answer his questions regarding flight departure times and the passengers aboard the flights.
  • When the DOJ resisted answering in its Tuesday filing citing concerns about “sensitive information bearing on foreign relations” being made public, Boasberg agreed they could do so under seal.

Mexican cartel members are “running scared” and fearful of President Donald Trump’s crackdown on illegal immigration, according to the sheriff of Tarrant County, Texas.

Like many local law enforcement officials, Sheriff Bill Waybourn has witnessed the sharp spike in illegal immigration over the past four years. He welcomed the increased enforcement from the federal government.

The Tarrant County jail currently holds over 300 illegal aliens suspected of criminal activity.

“They represent 22 different countries,” Waybourn said recently at a Heritage Foundation event in Dallas. “Some of them are going to be known terrorists, some of them are going to be known cartel soldiers, and the like.”

Excerpt:

As justification for deporting some immigrants in the country illegally without due process, President Donald Trump said the U.S. is under invasion.

“Evidence irrefutably demonstrates that (Tren de Aragua) has invaded the United States,” a March 15 White House proclamation said. Tren de Aragua is a Venezuela-based gang with some U.S. presence.

The proclamation says Tren de Aragua “is a hybrid criminal state that is perpetrating an invasion of and predatory incursion into the United States,” and so any person 14 years or older who is a Tren de Aragua member and who has neither U.S. citizenship nor permanent residency can be arrested, detained and deported using the Alien Enemies Act.

Trump and his allies have referred to illegal immigration as an invasion for years, and Trump’s move to use the 1798 Alien Enemies Act for deportations hinges on this characterization. To invoke the law, the U.S. has to be at war or under invasion by a foreign

Excerpt:

Kristi Noem, Secretary of Homeland Security, has announced the start of construction on an additional seven miles of border wall as part of the Trump administration’s efforts to strengthen security along the southern border of the United States. This announcement reinforces the administration’s commitment to protecting national sovereignty and reducing the illegal trafficking of drugs, guns and people that has plagued the country in recent years.

‘Our nation’s security is non-negotiable,’ Noem declared during the press conference in Texas, where the first phases of the project will be carried out. ‘Under President Trump’s leadership, we are taking back control of our border and sending a clear message to the cartels and human traffickers: you are not welcome in our country.’

Since assuming leadership of the Department of Homeland Security, Noem has prioritised the implementation of tougher and more effective immigration policies, seeking to reverse the border crisis inherited from the Biden administration. With the completion of these seven miles of wall, it is hoped to reinforce strategic points that have been used by criminal organisations to facilitate the illegal entry of migrants and the trafficking of drugs such as fentanyl, one of the greatest threats to US public security.

“We will not stand by as radical activist Judge James Boasberg tramples on the Constitution out of political spite for the President.”

Rep. Brandon Gill (R-TX) has filed articles of impeachment against US District Court Judge James Boasberg after the judge ordered that the Trump administration return planes full of deported gang members to the US after they were deported to El Salvador where they are being held in prison.

Gill filed the articles of impeachment on Tuesday, as first reported by the Daily Wire, saying, “We will not stand by as radical activist Judge James Boasberg tramples on the Constitution out of political spite for the President. The American people gave us a mandate to get criminal illegal aliens out of our country, and that’s exactly what we intend to do.”

Boasberg ruled on Saturday that he would have to return the gang members so that he could review if Trump could deport the gang members using the Alien Enemies Act of 1798, which Trump invoked on Saturday.

“Judge Boasberg has gravely overstepped his authority, usurping the Constitutional power of the Commander in Chief. President Trump is securing America’s neighborhoods, restoring safety for men, women, and children who call this nation home. We will not tolerate radical, politically motivated judges illegally and unconstitutionally stopping the President from carrying out his mandate,” the lawmaker added.

Excerpt:

Members of the Trump administration said Monday that they could not comply with a federal judge’s order to return a plane full of illegal alien gang members back to the United States because the plane was already over international waters when the order was issued. 

“It wasn’t until this flight was in international waters heading down to El Salvador that the judge made some comment about returning the flights. We are already in international waters. We’re outside the borders of the United States. I’m the border czar. Once you are outside the border, you know, it is what it is,” Homan stated during a Fox News interview.

Over the weekend, President Donald Trump invoked the Alien Enemies Act of 1798 to round up and swiftly deport members of Tren de Aragua, a Venezuelan gang.

On Sunday night, Chief Judge of the Washington, DC Circuit Court of Appeals James Boasberg nearly halted Trump’s deportation flight of roughly 300 gang members to the Terrorism Confinement Center (CECOT) in El Salvador after he claimed that five of the passengers had not yet been cleared for deportation. 

The Obama-appointed judge then issued a Temporary Restraining Order (TRO) to prohibit the Trump administration from conducting deportations within the next two weeks, and ordered the administration to appear in Federal Court on March 21st.

The Department of Justice (DOJ) responded to U.S. District Judge James Boasberg blocking President Donald Trump’s usage of the Alien Enemies Act to deport suspected members of the Venezuelan gang, Tren de Aragua (TdA), saying the “court lack the jurisdiction” to interfere.

In a legal filing, Attorney General Pam Bondi called for the court to “vacate the hearing and de-escalate the grave incursions on Executive Branch authority that have already arisen.” Fox News’s Bill Melugin noted that the judge “denied the Trump admin’s motion to vacate/cancel the hearing.”

“Plaintiffs cannot use these proceedings to interfere with the President’s national-security and foreign-affairs authority, and the Court lacks the jurisdiction to do so,” the DOJ wrote. “In response to Plaintiffs’ filing (Dkt. 21) and this Court’s order setting a hearing for this afternoon, the government submits the below response. Because it provides the necessary information to confirm the government’s compliance, the represents the full extent of what counsel is authorized to share with the public or Plaintiffs, the Court should vacate the hearing and de-escalate the grave incursions on Executive Branch authority that have already arisen.”

DHS Deploys Lie Detector in Search of More ICE Leakers to Prosecute

pgnewser March 11, 2025

The Department of Homeland Security has announced a handful of “ICE Leakers” within the department have been caught, terminated, and are now being investigated for potential criminal prosecution. In an effort to find more, DHS is deploying a lie detector to question suspected agents.

Noem told Fox News Host Sean Hannity, “I have a couple of them identified that are within DHS. And when I’m able to reveal that with the evidence, I’m going to prosecute them to the fullest extent of the law, and I’m going to make an example out of them. And just on the way here, I got another notification of another leak. And I can’t do anything without it getting leaked, and that’s why we have to have so many ops all over the country all the time that it doesn’t slow us down.”

The polygraph tests have been taking place for about three weeks, a DHS spokesperson confirmed to CBS News. It wasn’t immediately clear how many employees had already undergone a polygraph.

President Trump’s DHS Secretary Kristi Noem issued an internal directive Feb. 18 ordering staffers to submit to polygraph tests to crack down on those trying to hamper Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) deportation operations, the outlet reported, citing sources.

“The Department of Homeland Security is a national security agency. We can, should, and will polygraph personnel,” a DHS spokesperson said.

The DHS secretary went on to state that increasing the administration’s deportation numbers is a top priority, as the current pace hovers just over 30,000 a month. For comparison, an estimated 10 million illegal aliens entered the United States during the Biden Administration alone.

Biden Illegals Poorer, Less Educated than Previous Ones

The immigrants President Biden welcomed to the U.S. over the last four years were poorer and less educated than their predecessors, according to a new study released Wednesday.

The number of newcomers who never advanced past high school is now larger than those with a bachelor’s degree, for the first time in more than a decade. And the median annual earnings of new immigrant men dropped to about $32,000 a year, down from more than $50,000 during the Trump administration, according to the Center for Immigration Studies.

Both numbers reflect the surge in unauthorized immigrants and their heavily Latin American origins, said Steven A. Camarota, the lead author of the study.

Sunday on CNN’s “State of the Union” Trump border Czar Tom Homan said that Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) could be prosecuted if the Department of Justice determines her webinar on avoiding deportation was an “impediment” to law enforcement.

On Fox News Homan said, “Is she crossing the line? I’m working with the Department of Justice in finding out, where is that line that they cross? So maybe AOC’s going to be in trouble now.”

Host Dana Bash said, “Are you suggesting that she should be prosecuted?”

Homan said, “I”m suggesting that I asked the Department of Justice, where is that line on impediment, right? It’s a broad statute. So, I know, impeding, with someone stopped in front of me and put their hands on my chest, saying, ‘You’re not coming in here to arrest that guy,’ that’s clearly impeding. But at what point? Where’s the line on impeding? Because you can call it ‘Know Your Rights’ all you want. We all know what the bottom line is. The bottom line is, how do they evade law enforcement?”
