Judge blocks Trump from deporting citizens using Alien Enemies Act
A federal judge blocked the Trump administration from deporting any noncitizens pursuant to his recent proclamation invoking the Alien Enemies Act.
Less than two hours after the president attempted to invoke the 18th century law to deport alleged members of the Venezuelan gang Tren de Aragua, U.S. District Judge James Boasberg issued a temporary restraining order that blocks the Trump administration from deporting noncitizens currently in custody pursuant to the president's recent proclamation.
