In January, Border Patrol conducted an operation in California's Central Valley, arresting nearly 80 individuals. While officials claimed the initiative targeted undocumented immigrants with serious criminal backgrounds, lawyers contended that agents indiscriminately apprehended day laborers, showing a lack of legal basis for suspicion. A federal judge intervened, issuing a preliminary injunction that restricts agents from making stops and warrantless arrests without probable cause, reinforcing Fourth Amendment protections. This ruling exemplifies a broader judicial pushback against the Trump administration's aggressive mass deportation tactics, which have faced scrutiny over constitutional concerns.
