Tensions have risen between the U.S. Department of Justice and D.C. District Chief Judge James Boasberg over the disclosure of details about deportation flights conducted under the Trump administration's Alien Enemies Act. Judge Boasberg has requested specific information to assess compliance with a previous order, while the Justice Department argues that such demands interfere with executive functions and may invoke the state secrets privilege to withhold sensitive information. This legal dispute underscores the broader conflict between judicial oversight and executive authority in immigration enforcement, with potential implications for future interactions between these branches of government.
