Tom Homan DOES tend to talk kinda ‘Tough Guy’….
But in this case….
It appaears somebody told him ‘Down Boy’….
And he just might find a Federal Judge on his case if he didn’t back up….
On the below linked piece on a ABC Q & A?
The guy seemed to be dancing away from his strong statements…..
Tom Homan, President Donald Trump’s border czar, vowed Sunday that the Trump administration would not defy court orders stemming from legal challenges over its invocation of the wartime Alien Enemies Act to deport undocumented migrants from the United States.
For the past week, a federal judge in Washington, James Boasberg, has tried to determine whether the Trump administration ignored an earlier order to temporarily halt deportation flights under the Alien Enemies Act when it flew Venezuelan detainees to El Salvador even after the judge ordered their flights to be turned around.
According to Homan, all of those sent to El Salvador were known gang members, and — he claimed — most were members of Tren de Aragua, the Venezuelan gang that the Trump administration has labeled a terrorist organization.
“That plane removed 240 terrorists from the United States,” Homan claimed, speaking exclusively on ABC’s “This Week.”
But family members of some of those flown to El Salvador insist they had no affiliation with any gang. And on Sunday, Homan refused to provide any specific information supporting the Trump administration’s claims….
Update….
A federal judge on Monday reaffirmed a ruling that blocks President Donald Trump from using wartime powers to summarily deport alleged gang members.
The new development from U.S. District Judge James Boasberg came just hours in advance of a critical courtroom showdown before a federal appeals court on Trump’s deportation authority.
The D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals was scheduled to hear arguments Monday afternoon on the Trump administration’s effort to lift a restraining order that Boasberg imposed on March 15. That order bars deportations under a proclamation Trump issued invoking the Alien Enemies Act of 1798 against members of a Venezuelan gang, Tren de Aragua….

President Trump says he HIMSELF DID NOT sign off on this….
