The Trump administration's use of the Alien Enemies Act to deport suspected Tren de Aragua gang members is facing judicial scrutiny. D.C. Circuit Court Judge Patricia Millett questioned the administration's actions, comparing the treatment of these individuals to that of Nazis during WWII, emphasizing the lack of hearings and notification before deportation. The Justice Department is fighting against a temporary restraining order protecting these individuals, highlighting a contentious issue within Trump's immigration policies that challenges executive power. A decision from the judges is pending, and it can lead to further legal battles potentially reaching the Supreme Court.
Nazis got better treatment under the Alien Enemies Act than what has happened here. And they had hearing boards before they were removed.

The pause was an "enormous intrusion" on the president's power.
The fight over the rarely used wartime power has become central to Trump's immigration crackdown agenda.
