‘Unquestionably in violation’: Judge says US government didn’t follow court order on deportations
SUMMARY: A federal judge ruled that the Trump administration violated a court order by deporting eight immigrants, convicted of violent crimes, to South Sudan without giving them a meaningful opportunity to object. The migrants were removed despite a March ruling requiring that they be allowed to contest the risks of deportation. Officials from the Department of Homeland Security defended the actions, calling the deportees “national security threats,” but the judge criticized the lack of due process. South Sudan’s authorities denied knowledge of the deportations, while immigration advocates expressed concerns about the safety and legality of these actions.

House GOP grinding ahead with Trump’s big tax cuts bill, but new report says it will add to deficit
SUMMARY: House Republicans, led by Speaker Mike Johnson and President Trump, aim to vote on a multi-trillion-dollar tax break package by Wednesday, surmounting GOP doubts about increasing the $36 trillion national debt. The Congressional Budget Office projects the tax cuts will boost the deficit by $3.8 trillion over ten years, partly offset by $1 trillion in safety net spending cuts affecting Medicaid and food stamps, reducing benefits for low-income households. The bill extends Trump’s 2017 tax breaks, cuts green energy incentives, adds $350 billion in spending for defense and border security, and imposes work requirements on federal aid recipients. Despite internal GOP tensions and Democratic opposition, Trump pushes for passage to fulfill his legislative priorities.
