The U.S. Supreme Court is shown March 17, 2025 in Washington, DC. A federal judge is asking the government for proof that it complied to his order in its deportation of more than 200 alleged Tren de Aragua gang members to El Salvador under the Alien Enemies Act of 1789.

Judge James Boasberg had earlier asked the Trump administration to provide more details about weekend flights that deported hundreds of alleged Venezuelan gang members to El Salvador — despite his order to turn the planes around.
