Contempt of Court, Contempt for Justice: The DHS's Dangerous Defiance

A federal judge has held the Department of Homeland Security in contempt for failing to disclose cellphone records from immigration agents' personal devices used during operations in Los Angeles, revealing a shocking and deliberate pattern of institutional obstruction that undermines the very foundations of due process and the rule of law.
