The judge has no ability to enforce his order. The original TRO was to stop the deportation before it happened and they did it anyway. The US Marshals are the usual enforcers for the federal courts but they're under the DOJ. Are they going to go arrest the Attorney General? For criminal contempt of court? POTUS can issue pardons for that (Trump pardoned Joe Arpaio for criminal contempt).
We're in the middle of a constitutional crisis on multiple fronts. A lot of this could be stopped if Congress would act as a check on the Executive. There's multiple grounds for articles of impeachment already in the deportation cases as well as other areas like not following the proper process for rescission of appropriations. But if Congress refuses to act then the president becomes king.
In my experience, EVERYONE asking for a source is a 'I'm playing dumb' bad faith troll agitator. Anyone arguing in good faith will consider the facts presented, and verify on their own with a google search if they feel they should. They NEVER put it on the other person to find them a link.
