(Reuters) -President Donald Trump's administration's response to a judicial request for more details on the deportation of hundreds of Venezuelan migrants was "woefully insufficient," a judge said on Thursday.
Washington-based U.S. District Judge James Boasberg is weighingwhether administration officials violated his order intended to temporarily block the expulsions. In an order on Thursday, the judge told officials to explain by March 25 why their failure to bring the deported migrants back to the United States did not violate his order.
