A Judge Accuses the Trump Administration of 'Shameful Cruelty' Over Somali Migrants

A federal judge sharply rebuked the Trump administration on Tuesday, saying it had shown "shameful cruelty" in trying to accelerate the end of deportation protections for hundreds of Somali migrants after a Supreme Court ruling earlier this summer. The administration had moved to wind down Temporary Protected Status faster than the statute contemplates. The judge's language was unusually blunt for an immigration docket that has produced a long run of emergency orders.
