It's been a whirlwind way to start the week in the world of immigration. A huge ruling was made by a judge in the case to stop deportations to El Salvador. The judge says he's ready to charge the Trump Administration with contempt of court for disobeying his orders. Grant has some breaking news in that story.
Then, he talks about the Kilmar Abrego-Garcia case and how the government is disobeying a judge there, how the administration is changing its reasons for sending him to an El Salvadorian prison, and where that case stands.
Plus, the biggest news this week, (so far) President Donald Trump says he wants to deport US citizens to one of the world's deadliest prisons. A likely illegal plan that sent shockwaves through the US legal world on Monday.
