“This was the mistake that Trump made..instead of using the Aliens Enemies Act he should have just deported people back to their home countries for being here illegally..you are here illegally you are GONE period.”
You are confused. That is exactly what he did. He did NOT go to court to ask permission for the deportations. The Alien Enemies act is what specifically allowed HIM to deport them in a manner to be determined by him.
Numerous advocacy groups ran into court and filed cases. Federal judges started issuing injunctions despite the law specifically not allowing for that. A court is only involved if someone here needs to file a suit against a departing alien.
Trump correctly invoked that act. That allows him to bypass the courts and deport them. This is a power grab by courts who have no jurisdiction under the act.
