Trump-Administrator gesteht eine verblüffende „Mischung aus Inkompetenz und Bosheit“

>“This story illustrates the mix of incompetence and malice that is defining the administration’s mass detention campaign,” [said Slate court reporter Mark Joseph Stern](https://slate.com/news-and-politics/2026/02/trump-doj-confession-new-jersey-court-deportations-ice.html), describing a government that arrested an individual with no criminal record or order of removal. It then hustled him to Texas, where his lawyers had to go find him and serve a writ of habeas corpus to return both him and is property.

>“The government did neither. It released him in Texas, not Minnesota, and withheld all of his property, including his driver’s license and other identification paperwork. So he was just dumped and abandoned. His lawyers had to go … and tell her that her order had been flagrantly violated, which is when she scheduled the hearing,” said Stern.

>Homeland security had yet to return his identification cards long after the detainee made it back home, forcing an attorney to hold the JAG lawyer in civil contempt until the cards were returned, with the $500 daily sanction against federal attorneys.

This is disgusting.
