Supreme Court Allows Trump to Resume Deportations Under Alien Enemies Act with Conditions
The 5-4 ruling permits the use of the 18th-century law but mandates due process safeguards, as legal challenges over mistaken deportations and constitutional concerns escalate.
- The Supreme Court ruled that the Trump administration can deport Venezuelan migrants under the Alien Enemies Act but must provide notice and allow individuals to challenge their removal in court.
- Critics warn that requiring detainees to file habeas petitions in distant jurisdictions like Texas creates significant barriers to fair legal redress.
- Reports reveal that many deported individuals, including 90% of those sent to a Salvadoran prison, had no U.S. criminal record, raising concerns about wrongful classifications.
- The administration faces scrutiny over mistaken deportations, including a Maryland man sent to El Salvador, as ongoing litigation seeks clarity on recourse for those already removed.
- The ruling has sparked debate over the constitutional limits of executive power, with dissenting justices likening the decision to historical abuses of civil liberties.
