Kristi Noem, you're getting thrown under the bus by the Trump regime's DOJ right now for potential criminal contempt. That's right. The DOJ was ordered to respond by yesterday evening from Judge Jeb Boasberg, who has reinitiated criminal contempt proceedings against the Trump regime officials who could later be identified as being responsible for defying the judge's orders. several months back when the judge made the order, do not send these migrants to the concentration camp in El Salvador without providing them due process. The court issued an injunction. The injunction was transmitted to the DOJ who transmitted it to the Department of Homeland Security. But the Department of Homeland Security, while they could have turned around the flight of the hundred plus migrants who were being sent to Seacott, which is called a terrorist detention center in El Salvador, but it's really a concentration camp there.
The DHS said, damn the order, basically F the order, go to Seacott and bring these migrants there. Those migrants went there. They were tortured. They had their lives destroyed and ruined before ultimately we saw Abrego Garcia His return got facilitated and then the regime had to unwind the fact that they sent these migrants unlawfully to concentration camps in El Salvador. So what do I mean that the DOJ threw Kristi Noem under the bus? The judge said, identify the final decision maker who made that order. And the Department of Justice put forward a response to the court's order. And they say after receiving legal advice, Secretary Noem directed that the detainees who had been removed from the United States before the court's order could be transferred to the custody of El Salvador.
As explained below, they say the decision was lawful and was consistent with a reasonable interpretation of the court's order. That's on paragraph four, where they say Kristi Noem did it. Let's go to paragraph 10. It says, nevertheless, insofar as the court has inquired into the identities of the decision-making officials for purposes of making a potential criminal referral, The actions were taken by DHS through Secretary Noem after being formally advised about compliance with this court's order, both by the DOJ leadership and the acting general counsel of the DHS, Department of Homeland Security. In other words, The DOJ, and you see their lawyers here, Brett Shumate, Drew Inson, and others, they're saying, we told Christine Ohm about the court's order, saying, turn around that plane, turn it around now, bring the migrants back, and then we can deal with it.
Don't send them to the concentration camp. The DOJ said, we told Christine Ohm.
What filing alleges Kristi Noem was the decision‑maker in the DHS migrant transfer?
Christine Ohm sought the legal advice from the DOJ, but ultimately she was the one who made the determination, send the people to the concentration camp. You take a look right here, it's defendant's response to court order, and they admit, the court, the federal judge, Judge Boesberg, directed the parties to propose next steps for its inquiry into potential for criminal contempt. Defendants respectfully submit that no further steps are warranted. They go, though, insofar as this court disagrees with our interpretation of the law, defendants identify below officials who made and advised on the decision not to recall the flights in transit and instead to transfer detainees out of the US custody on March 15th and 16th, 2025, which is the only remaining information necessary.
