Trump-appointed judge holds admin in contempt for deporting asylum seeker

A federal judge held the Trump administration in contempt for deporting a young asylum seeker to El Salvador despite three court orders, and ordered the government to return him. This is the second contempt finding in the same case, escalating the conflict between the executive and judiciary over deportation enforcement. The administration's compliance with the return order remains uncertain, and the broader pattern of defying court orders could deepen the constitutional crisis.
