A federal judge appointed by President Trump has accused US Immigration and Customs Enforcement of lying and fabricating records, according to a New York Times report. The accusation is notable because it comes from a judge appointed by the same president whose administration oversees ICE, and it lands amid ongoing legal and political fights over the agency's arrest and deportation practices.
Why now: A judge from Trump's own party accusing a Trump administration agency of falsifying records is striking, making the story widely shared amid debate over immigration enforcement.
