Minnesota judge blasts ICE for defying courts, pauses agency head appearance
TL;DR Summary
A federal judge in Minneapolis harshly criticized ICE for repeatedly defying court orders during Operation Metro Surge, saying the agency is not above the law, but he canceled a planned appearance by ICE’s acting director after a detainee was released; the ruling occurs as lawsuits over ICE’s Minnesota operations continue, including efforts to end the surge and a class-action alleging constitutional rights violations at a makeshift detention center.
