A California federal judge has ordered the Trump administration to “not distinguish” and detain people deemed illegal in the United States.
The decision fell in a temporary restraining order issued on Friday against the government, which also prohibits immigration officials from refusing personal contact with lawyers.
The case was a lawsuit filed by three immigrants who were arrested at the Pasadena bus station while searching for a job, and one of them reportedly showed an ID.
The Department of Homeland Security responded to the judge’s order in a social media post, accusing her of “destroying the will of the American people.”
U.S. District Court Judge Maame Frimpong’s emergency order was an interim measure, while the lawsuit continues.
The judge said there was order that there was a lot of “evidence” supporting officials who had been “patrols” which were defined as “unparalleled people unintentionally rounding up individuals.” She said it would violate the U.S. Constitution.
The judge said the government cannot arrest its immigrants “only” factors such as “race or race,” “speaking Spanish or speaking English in an accent” or “existence at a specific location” such as bus stops or car washes.
Judge Frimpong’s decision came as the Trump administration stepped up efforts toward illegal immigration, especially in California, a democratic stronghold that has long been angry with President Donald Trump.

However, the administration said it was a priority for violent criminals as ICE tried to meet the daily quota for 3,000 arrests a day, which was a Trump-designated goal to launch the “largest deportation” campaign in U.S. history.
“The brave men and women in the United States are expelling murderers, MS-13 gang members, pedophiles, rapists, the worst of the Golden State community,” the Department of Homeland Security wrote on X.
