The Trump administration just scored another huge court win. On Friday, the D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals issued an order in the J.G.G. v. Trump case vacating Judge James Boasberg's order finding probable cause to hold the administration in contempt. Margot Cleveland's thread does a nice job of laying it out, but here's the back story:

In March, Judge Boasberg entered a temporary restraining order effectively requiring the administration to turn around planes of illegal aliens (Tren de Aragua members, at that) that were en route to El Salvador. When the administration did not abide by that (for numerous reasons, both legally and practically), Boasberg later found probable cause to hold the administration in contempt.

Judge Katsas and Judge Rao conclude that the government has satisfied the stringent requirements for a writ of mandamus. The Court therefore grants the government’s petition for mandamus and vacates the district court’s probable-cause order. Judge Pillard dissents from the grant of mandamus and the vacatur.
And here's the crux of Rao's reasoning in the concurrence:

The district court used the threat of criminal contempt to coerce the Executive Branch to comply with an order it had no authority to enforce. And it directed that coercion toward the Executive’s exercise of its foreign affairs power. The significance of the district court’s error, coupled with the potential for abuse in future cases, justifies our intervention at this stage of the proceedings. Considering the “totality of the circumstances,” the writ is appropriate.

Trump was victorious again against the tyrannical black robed inferior District Court Judge. The Appeals court granted Trump's writ of mandamus.

And it’s in DC no less. Boasberg must have really been off his rocker! Are you aware is was Boasberg that gave Kevin Klinesmith the slap on the wrist for doctoring up a FISA warrant.

You've made 3 threads in the last couple of hours. What moronic thing did Trump do now?
