Trump Appeals Supreme Court on Venezuelan Deportation Ban

U.S. District Judge James Boasberg has extended a temporary restraining order halting the Trump administration's use of the 1798 Alien Enemies Act to deport Venezuelan nationals accused of gang membership until April 12. The administration argues these deportations are necessary for national security, claiming the Tren de Aragua gang poses a terrorist threat. However, the ACLU and other legal experts argue these actions deny due process, as many deportees have contested their alleged gang affiliations. The Trump administration has appealed to the Supreme Court to lift this order, emphasizing presidential authority in national security matters. Despite these appeals, the courts have so far supported Boasberg's restraint, with the Supreme Court now being asked to intervene. The case highlights the tension between executive power and judicial oversight, especially concerning immigration and national security policies.
