The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) condemned a Biden-appointed U.S district judge this week for ordering the release of a transgender Mexican illegal alien — a man who identifies as a woman — from a male-only detention facility.
The illegal alien, Odalis Jhonatan Martinez-Velasquez, had been placed into Immigration and Custom Enforcement’s (ICE) men’s detention center in accordance with President Donald Trump’s standing executive order and for the safety of women in ICE custody, DHS stated on X.
In making her ruling, Oregon District Judge Baggio joins what has become a judicial conga line of Democrat-appointed federal judges blocking Trump administration policies, as Breitbart News has reported.
In this most recent case, the judge appears to have served two left-wing causes in one order — transgenderism and open borders — as DHS accused the Court of “caving to pressure from immigration and transgender activists” and “ignoring the rule of law.”
According to a separate DHS statement, Velasquez illegally entered the country in 2023 and was released under the Biden administration. He was then lawfully detained on June 2, 2025 and processed for expedited removal.
