Attorney General Pam Bondi announced that the Trump administration would persist in expelling Venezuelan immigrants despite a federal court's temporary order to halt such actions. She asserted that the administration follows the Alien Enemies Act, which allows for deportations during wartime conditions. A federal judge ruled against this interpretation, emphasizing that the law applies only during declared wars or imminent threats against the U.S. This legal battle highlights the ongoing tension between immigration policies and judicial oversight in the context of national security claims.
