Trump's Gang Deportation Defies Judge's Order

News summary

The Trump administration deported over 200 alleged members of the Venezuelan gang Tren de Aragua to El Salvador, invoking the 1798 Alien Enemies Act, a wartime law rarely used since World War II. This action has stirred controversy due to a federal judge's temporary suspension order, which was allegedly defied as the planes were already in flight when the order was issued. The deportees are now held in El Salvador's mega-prison, known for its harsh conditions, and the move has been criticized by human rights advocates for potentially violating the deportees' legal rights. Salvadoran President Nayib Bukele, who agreed to house the deportees, stated the transfer was too late to be reversed. The U.S. government defended the deportations as necessary for national security, while critics argue it could lead to a constitutional crisis. Venezuela condemned the deportations, citing rights violations, as the U.S. administration maintains the decision was within presidential powers.
