A judge said on Wednesday he has found probable cause to find the Trump administration in contempt of court over the defiance of his order to turn two planes around carrying Venezuelan deportees to El Salvador.
Concretely, judge James Boasberg said evidence shows willful defiance amounting to criminal contempt. "The court does not reach this conclusion lightly or hastily; indeed, it has given Defendants ample opportunity to rectify or explain their actions. None of their responses have been satisfactory," Boasberg said.
