The Trump administration announced Sunday it would invoke the wartime Alien Enemies Act to swiftly deport hundreds of Venezuelan migrants. Almost immediately after the move was declared, immigration advocates and attorneys took to social media to tell the stories of some of these deportees.
Following the administration's move, Lindsay Toczylowski, President, CEO and Co-Founder of Immigrant Defenders Law Center (ImmDef), a non-profit social justice law firm, took to X to detail the story of one of their clients, a Venezuelan migrant who was detained by ICE under the Alien Enemies Act, alleging his tattoos are gang related.
