Federal Judge Left SHOCKED When DOJ Attorney Drops a Brutal Truth Bomb After Judge Goes on Tirade Against President Trump Regarding ‘Unconstitutional’ Deportations

A so-called federal judge was caught off guard when an administration attorney dropped a devastating truth bomb that put all of his whining over Trump to shame.

As Politico reported, a federal judge presiding over a lawsuit in Boston regarding the deportation of foreign, pro-Hamas activists went off on Trump and his cabinet on Thursday for orchestrating an “unconstitutional conspiracy” to pick off migrants.

The affected activists include Columbia University’s Mahmoud Khalil and Mohsen Madhawi, Tufts University Ph.D. student Rumeysa Ozturk, and Georgetown University academic Badar Khan Suri. These students have all issued hateful anti-American and ant-Semitic remarks, leaving other students uncomfortable.

Despite the activists having no constitutional right to reside in America, U.S. District Judge William Young, a Reagan appointee, decided to bash Trump, Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem, and Secretary of State Marco Rubio.

I’d suggest “no”.  

They are “guests” in our country and as such have a responsibility to refrain from involvement in our “internal affairs”.  They could become citizens and then have a right to “seek redress of grievances”. BUT, (and there is always a BIG butt), not as an invited guest permitted to be here.

As such, they should be deported IMMEDIATELY!

And, the Senate should IMMEDIATELY impeach U.S. District Court Judge William G. Young for his comments and allowing his personal opinions, which he certainly has a right to have, to insert themselves in court proceedings.  Time to bring judges in line as “impartial arbiters of law”; not emotional partisans.

Argh!

Few Americans would object to deporting foreign students who destroy property or physically assault other people. But Ozturk was merely guilty of using words that are detested by the current administration. Are Trump’s policymakers using the same “guilt by association” standard the Biden administration used to persecute anyone near the Capitol on January 6, 2021? Biden’s Justice Department acted like anyone who merely “paraded without a permit” near the Capitol that day was guilty of insurrection and deserved a harsh prison sentence. Is any criticism of Israeli policy now the legal and moral equivalent of insurrection?

As I read it, it doesn’t say anything about limits on who gets “free speech”.

In this case, I think that DJT47’s team is wrong in this specific case.  And, he should reign in the leash apologizing for the error.

I hope that SCOTUS will take this and the matter of “dreamers” (i.e., children brought into the USA by their illegal immigrant parents and thru no fault of their own are in a catch-22).
