Judge threatens to hold Jeff Sessions in contempt over asylum deportation
(Worthy News) – A frustrated federal judge lashed the Trump administration Thursday and threatened to hold Attorney General Jeff Sessions in contempt after being told the government had deported an asylum seeker despite clear assurances she wouldn’t be touched.
