Trump administration says judge defied Supreme Court on deportations

The Trump administration accused a federal judge of defying the Supreme Court's authority in a dispute over deporting migrants to South Sudan. The Justice Department claimed the judge's actions showed "unprecedented defiance" after the Supreme Court allowed deportations to third countries. The administration's accusation followed a Supreme Court decision that lifted an injunction requiring migrants facing deportation to third countries be given a chance to argue they face harm. The judge clarified his order did not apply to a separate case involving deportations to South Sudan. The Justice Department is seeking clarification from the Supreme Court, arguing the judge's actions disrupt diplomatic relations. The case highlights ongoing legal battles over the administration's deportation policies and compliance with court orders.
