This is complete BS. There is no “right to privacy” for immigration hearings. These hearings are open to the public as are their outcomes, in this case a deportation order.

Any reporter could have filed a FOIA request. In fact, I’m not sure if even that would be necessary. An analogy would be bankruptcy. Let say Barry for Chapter 11, but no one knew it. Three days before the election, a Federal employee tells that to someone in the press about the previous bankruptcy. That’s not a leak. It’s a PUBLICLY available fact.

This election can’t come soon enough.

Exactly.

Since when did a judge's order for deportation become a private matter?
