Summary

As Politico reported: "More than 100 judges have ruled against the Trump administration's mandatory detention policy."

The reporting also notes that those 100 judges "have now ruled at least 200 times that the Trump administration's effort to systematically detain immigrants facing possible deportation appeared to violate their rights or was flatly illegal". Glenn discusses why this massive legal rebuke matters.
