JUST IN: Drew Ensign, on behalf of DOJ, reports that all of the migrant children have been returned to ORR custody.
NEW: Judge Sooknanan is back at it.
She orders DOJ to file at fifth status report to address whether the two children discussed in its previous report have been returned to ORR custody.
Status report due at 12 noon today.
Or custody what?
Just waiting for hell to swallow Stephen Miller whole.š”
Have we confirmed that it was all of the children or just the ones that the government agreed should be in the class?
Who has verified this as true?
They NEVER should have been picked up OR moved out in the first place. These kids aren't gang members or criminals!
What took so longāļøāļø
Thank you Ann for this update. Also thank you for all you do to keep us updated with all of these Hearings. Without you sharing them, I would be lost.
It was an enormous mistake to open all of the ORR custody files to ICE. All trust by the migrant families was immediately destroyed and social workers were forced to be immigration officers.
āOh, I hope -you- didnāt want any sleep, either.ā
These ghouls keeping children up at 1:30 in the morning. Fuck these people.
Wonder why the labels changed as the status reports progressed:
class members (1st status report) minor putative class members (2nd) putative class members / minors (3d) minor aliens (4th) minor alien / putative class members (5th)
ORR?
Quality Work by this judge!
All thumbs up! šššššššššš
Well done.
This doesnāt exactly scream Nobel Peace Prize
Thank you Judge Sparkle! I don't think I'm ever going to get tired of saying that :)
Iām happy for this, but also those poor kids. Woken up at 3am to be put on a plane for 22 hours until 1am. Just so unnecessary to stress these kids out like this.
He should still be jailed for this horseshit.
And then pilloried in the national mall during the next regime.
Thank GOD, someone is looking out for the children!
How would anyone know if they were lying?
Recalcitrant DOJ continues to say āmake me!ā They are an embarrassing representation of the small pee president.
Congratulations to Snooknanan, who was willing to stare the government in the eye and back them down.
i hope they all have people providing trauma informed care & extra support today
Oh. OK then, since you say so.
Pics pls. Of all of them, on recognizable US soil, holding a dated news paper
you lying fucks
Children. Sending children off to a country alone and scared. What a sick and despicable administration we have running and ruining this country.
The amount of resources being spent on this is insane.
Alien? How about human?
The last statement seems like theyāre giving themselves some wiggle room to me.
Good.
Where was Melania in all of this?
I wonder if Mr. Ensign might be hiding behind the phrase āputative class members,ā so that the govt could transport others which they could later claim did not fall into the class. Has anyone checked the flight records of that Global aircraft?
Drew Ensign is going to get medically retired if this goes on much longer.
More than 24 hours after they were put in that plane. Sheer terror. They should get counseling for the rest of their lives.
Thank God
I'm so resisting the urge to take this with a grain of salt

The White House official suffered a social media meltdown after he was criticized for trying to deport a 10-year-old orphan.
Who are the parents in Guatemala that filed requests for their childrenās return? Where is that list Judge?
Itās just the most damning thing that the judge had to take all of those meticulous steps for 36 hours just to get the government to somehow comply.
Judge Sooknanan definitely deserves the Nobel Peace Prize
I donāt trust the DOJ
I hope Ensign and Miller had a horrible holiday weekend!
'not aware' is legal BS CYA for denying what you know but don't want admit.
But Ensign has already lied repeatedly.
Big fan of Judge Sooknanan right now. Without her dogged determination to ensure all the kids were returned, it wouldnāt have happened.
Man. Those poor kids.
What, um, took so long? Is it that hard?
Why are they obeying her? I mean, I'm glad and it's the right thing to do. But what's up here?
But where will these children go and when will they go there:
Requiring this level of attention from the judge surely canāt be making friendships
#SparkleSooknanan
Careful. It says they're not aware of .... That sounds like wiggle room to me.
This had me up all night. Nuremberg equivalent cannot come soon enough
They just have to use the term āminor alienā
1/ Goddess, I hate the way they refer to these CHILDREN, who have absolutely no resources and no choice. This is just wrong and NOT what beejezuz would do. How do these misanthropes live with themselves? When I worked in federal court in an extremely busy border district. each and every judge
i appreciate drew ensign's work ethic. he doesn't have much help.
I canāt believe this is our country now. You would think there would be no one who would approve of this. But looking at other MSM, there are a lot of truly awful and hateful individuals out there who are fine with this cruelty! This sickens me.
So, when the trials and subsequent punishments for these fascists begins, we will all remember the roll Drew Ensign played, correct? You donāt get to enable fascists and the terrorizing of children and avoid the gallows.
Great news. But, until someone pays actual penalties for their illegal actions, these kabuki dances that tear peoplesā lives apart will continue to the delight of the Trump sociopaths.
I thought there was a total of around 600 children. Am I remembering that incorrectly?
But has he lied
their hearing was at 12:30 noon the day before and the kid didnt get to ORR until 1:30am?
And what exactly was the Trump administration facilitating with the deportation of 600 children (assuming Iām getting all the facts correct)? Is the administration actively trafficking children to foreign countries and for what/whoās purpose? This is Epstein level evil
On a petty note I'm so glad this jerk DOJ lawyer had to work over the whole Labor Day weekend
She persisted!
