During a recent court hearing, Judge Patricia Millett raised concerns about immigrants' due process rights under the Trump administration's use of the Alien Enemies Act from 1798. She underscored this by questioning how Nazi defendants experienced better judicial rights compared to undocumented individuals facing deportation. Government lawyer Drew Ensign countered, disputing the Nazi analogy. This legal battle follows the Trump administration's attempt to lift a blockade on deportations citing wartime powers, reminiscent of historical injustices like the internment of Japanese Americans in World War II.
Judge Patricia Millett expressed concern that Nazi defendants received more due process in the U.S. compared to undocumented immigrants facing deportation under Trump.
Government lawyer Drew Ensign strongly disputed Judge Millett's comparison, questioning the appropriateness of equating the treatment of Nazi defendants with the current situation of Venezuelans.
