The judge notes that two courts determined that the topic falls within the exclusive jurisdiction of the Court of International Trade. She says that the state of California has an upward climb on jurisdiction.

I don’t know if Americans realize how often ICE arrests US citizens, and how long those citizens can spend detained. I spoke to Davino Watson, who spent 3.5 years in a detention center. He was a citizen every minute of that time. 1/3
