ENSIGN says all 600 children in question are still in the United States, planes are grounded and will not leave while the judge's order is in place. He said it's possible one had taken off and was returned. www.politico.com/news/2025/08...

Who is flying a plane full of CHILDREN who are alone out of the country. The complicity is astonishing.

600 children is the total number in the class protected by the judges order, I believe, please correct if wrong. They are not all in one place. And 600 14-15-16-17 yr olds are still 600 children (Epstein apologists can go to hell).

aug 31, 2025, 6:21 pm • 5 0 • view
I totally agree. She has been amazing in this situation. Got a call at 230am, got up and immediately entered a TRO to stop them from deporting children (some as young as 10). Said she hasn’t been back to sleep yet.

This para appears at both para #5 and #14: The judge also said, “I have conflicting narratives from both sides here,” adding that what she heard from the advocates for the children “doesn’t quite line up with what I’m getting from the government.”

UPDATE: A federal judge has barred the Trump administration from deporting 600 unaccompanied Guatemalan children overnight, halting the effort while many of them sat on the tarmac in El Paso — and maybe have, in one case, been in the air. t.co/4QRs4oLf0G
