U.S. District Judge Paula Xinis is the latest judge at odds with the Trump administration. In a scathing rebuke, she has characterized the government as acting in “bad faith” by refusing to provide information about what it has done to try to free Kilmar Abrego Garcia from a prison in El Salvador, where he was wrongly deported, and then return him to the United States. Xinis has experienced partisan pushback since her nomination by Democratic President Barack Obama. She also was accused of being too tough on law enforcement during earlier legal work for a police oversight office.
