President Trump was furious after the Supreme Court temporarily stopped his administration from using the 1798 Alien Enemies Act to deport Venezuelan migrants held in northern Texas. This decision is a major setback for the administration’s attempts to speed up deportations while avoiding legal review processes.
As reported by CNN, the Supreme Court stepped in when the administration deported more than 100 Venezuelans to El Salvador’s Terrorism Confinement Center (CECOT) after the order was issued. This move led to lawsuits. While an earlier Supreme Court decision had allowed deportations under the Act, it also said that people facing deportation must have the chance for a court review.
