Controversial Deportation Strategies

President Trump’s showdown with the courts reached a new milestone on Tuesday, when he called for a federal judge to be impeached and the chief justice of the Supreme Court publicly scolded the president in response.

Luke Broadwater, who covers the White House for The Times, discusses the deportation case at the center of the confrontation — and whether the constitutional crisis that many have feared has now arrived.

Guest: Luke Broadwater, who covers the White House for The New York Times.

Background reading: 

• A judge ordered deportation planes to turn around. The White House didn’t listen.
• The order has made the judge in the deportation case a target of Republican anger.
