Federal judge blocks Trump’s plan to target ‘alien enemies’ for deportation

by admin

President Trump speaks during a meeting with NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte in the Oval Office of the White House on Thursday in Washington, D.C. On Saturday, Trump invoked a 1790s law declaring members of Tren de Aragua to be alien enemies for immediate detention and removal from the U.S.

Trump invoked the wartime authority Alien Enemies Act, targeting members of Venezuelan gang Tren de Aragua for expedited deportation. But a federal judge blocked the action Saturday evening.
