'Huge news!' Expert cheers as judge shuts down Trump's scheme to arrest thousands
President Donald Trump's mass immigrant arrest scheme suffered a huge setback on Wednesday, as a federal judge in Minnesota ordered a halt to any arrest and detention of lawful refugees not accused of committing crimes.
Senior U.S. District Judge John Tunheim ordered that the moves to arrest Minnesota's 5,600 refugees, transport them to other states, and interrogate them in detention cannot continue — and that anyone who was shipped out to other states in this manner must be returned to Minnesota.
