SUMMARY: A federal judge found probable cause for contempt against the Trump administration over the deportation of Kilar Armando Abrego Garcia, despite a Supreme Court ruling ordering his return. The Department of Justice called it an “administrative error,” while Attorney General Pam Bondi insisted he would not be returned. Senator Chris Van Hollen criticized the administration, demanding accountability for violating due process. A New York Times investigation revealed most deported migrants had no significant criminal background, fueling concerns about potential overreach by the Trump administration. Democrats warn that such actions threaten democratic principles.

A federal judge has determined there is probable cause to hold Trump administration officials in criminal contempt for defying orders to halt deportations under the Alien Enemies Act.

SUMMARY: Conflicts over transparency, politics, and influence were on full display during a recent West Virginia University Board of Governors meeting. Outgoing President Gordon Gee acknowledged deep divisions as members debated leadership and past decisions, including the presidential search process. Tensions rose after new legislation stripped voting rights from student, faculty, and staff representatives. Criticism centered on board member Harry Carey, a political appointee, accused of pushing partisan interests. The board narrowly elected Rusty Hudson as chair over longtime member Rick Pill. Gee called for unity amid mounting concerns about governance and political interference, as three more board appointments loom under Governor Morrissey.

Outgoing West Virginia University President Gordon Gee said during the WVU Board of Governors meeting on Friday that this is the first time, while at WVU, that there have been divisions among the board. From transparency issues to conflicts of interest to political interference, the fragments within the board were a theme throughout.
