🚨 #Trump cannot use #AlienEnemiesAct to deport members of Venezuelan gang, appeals court rulesA federal appeals court panel ruled Tuesday that Trump cannot use an 18th-century wartime #law to speed the #deportations of people his admin accuses of membership in a Venezuelan gang, blocking a signature admin push that is destined for a final showdown at the #SCOTUS.#law #ImmigrationLaw #immigration #ExecutiveOverreach #AbuseOfPower #Constitution #DueProcess #rendition https://apnews.com/article/trump-alien-enemies-act-venezuela-9aa913b03c09662aeecdde42901f7706?utm_source=onesignal&utm_medium=push&utm_campaign=2025-09-02-Alien+Enemies+Act

A 3-judge panel of the #5thCircuit Court of Appeals, one of the most #conservative federal appeals courts in the country, agreed with #ImmigrantRights lawyers & lower court judges who argued the #AlienEnemiesAct of 1798 was not intended to be used against gangs like Tren de Aragua, the Venezuelan group #Trump targeted in his March invocation.#law #ImmigrationLaw #immigration #ExecutiveOverreach #AbuseOfPower #Constitution #DueProcess #rendition #StateSponsoredAbduction

#LeeGelernt, who argued the case for the #ACLU, said Tuesday: “The #Trump administration’s use of a wartime statute during peacetime to regulate #immigration was rightly shut down by the court. This is a critically important decision reining in the administration’s view that it can simply declare an emergency without any oversight by the courts.”#law #AlienEnemiesAct #ImmigrationLaw #5thCircuit #ExecutiveOverreach #AbuseOfPower #Constitution #DueProcess #rendition #StateSponsoredAbduction

The admin deported people it designated as Tren de Aragua members to a notorious prison in #ElSalvador where, it argued, #US #courts could not order them freed.In a deal announced in July, more than 250 of the deported immigrants returned to #Venezuela.The #AlienEnemiesAct was only used 3 times before in US history, all during declared #wars — in the War of 1812 & the two World Wars.#Trump #law #ImmigrationLaw #immigration #5thCircuit #AbuseOfPower #Constitution #DueProcess #rendition

The #Trump admin unsuccessfully argued that courts cannot second-guess the president’s determination that Tren de Aragua was connected to #Venezuela’s government & represented a danger to the #US, meriting use of the act.In a 2-1 ruling, the judges said they granted the preliminary injunction sought by the plaintiffs because they “found no invasion or predatory incursion” in this case. #law #AlienEnemiesAct #ImmigrationLaw #immigration #5thCircuit #AbuseOfPower #Constitution #DueProcess

The decision bars #deportations from #Texas, #Louisiana & #Mississippi. In the majority were US Circuit Judges Leslie Southwick, a George W. Bush appointee, & Irma Carrillo Ramirez, a Joe Biden appointee. Andrew Oldham, a #Trump appointee, dissented.The majority opinion said Trump’s allegations about Tren de Aragua do not meet the historical levels of national conflict that #Congress intended for the act.https://s3.documentcloud.org/documents/26081114/ca5-aea.pdf#law #AlienEnemiesAct #ImmigrationLaw #immigration #5thCircuit

“A country’s encouraging its residents & citizens to enter this country illegally is not the modern-day equivalent of sending an armed, organized force to occupy, to disrupt, or to otherwise harm the United States,” the judges wrote.In a lengthy dissent, Oldham complained his two colleagues were second-guessing Trump’s conduct of foreign affairs & national security, realms where courts usually give the president great deference.#Trump #law #AlienEnemiesAct #immigration #5thCircuit

“The majority’s approach to this case is not only unprecedented—it is contrary to more than 200 years of precedent,”Oldham wrote [ridiculous].The panel did grant the #Trump admin one legal victory, finding the procedures it uses to advise detainees under the #AlienEnemiesAct of their legal rights is appropriate.The ruling can be appealed to the full #5thCircuit or directly to the #SCOTUS, which is likely to make the ultimate decision on the issue.#law #immigration #Constitution #DueProcess
