A federal judge in Louisiana, Terry A. Doughty, expressed alarm over the Trump administration's deportation of a U.S. citizen child to Honduras without meaningful procedures, despite her father's attempt to halt the action. The judge pointed out the questionable legality of relying solely on the mother's consent, especially considering the father's emergency request. This incident reflects broader concerns regarding the administration's aggressive deportation tactics, including previous federal court challenges against deportations of migrants under disputed policies.
