The article discusses a controversial action by the federal government where alleged gang members were allegedly sent to a labor camp in El Salvador without facing any convictions. This move was seen as a violation of existing legal standards, particularly the Enemy Aliens Act, which stipulates the need for a formal conflict with another nation. The government's arguments, including the notion that unconvicted individuals can be categorized as threats, highlight significant issues around due process and the interpretation of legal frameworks by the Trump administration.
The term "alleged" is doing even more heavy lifting than the inmates toiling in El Salvador. The administration didn't choose to move convicted migrant gang members.
While it is true that many of the TdA members removed under the AEA do not have criminal records in the United States, that is because they have only been in the United States for a short period of time.
The lack of a criminal record does not indicate they pose a limited threat... highlights the risk they pose. It demonstrates that they are terrorists.
The Trump administration responded... with the crackpot theory about laws not applying in international waters followed by the even more batshit claim that court orders don't apply unless they're in writing.
