President Donald Trump is planning to use a 200-year-old wartime law to authorize the deportation of some migrants, including sending them to Guantanamo Bay.
Trump will invoke the Alien Enemies Act of 1798 as soon as Friday, according to reports, as he escalates his war on illegal immigration.
The law gives presidents the power to order the arrest, detention and deportation of noncitizens who are 14 years or older and come from countries staging an 'invasion or predatory incursion' of the U.S.
Trump has long vowed to protect the border and vowed mass deportations in his second term.
In his first weeks in office, he moved U.S. troops to the border, had immigration officers launching raids in cities across America and placed more immigrants at risk of deportation.
The primary target of this new move is the Tren de Aragua (TDA), a Venezuelan organized crime group that Trump had declared a foreign terrorist group.
Trump's move is expected to face a court challenge.
His administration began moving migrants to Guantanamo Bay, a U.S. military base in Cuba, in January after Trump signed an executive order 'to instruct the departments of Defense and Homeland Security to begin preparing the 30,000-person migrant facility at Guantanamo Bay.'

My high-school niece mostly taught herself to write cursive. The learning to write in cursive was a lesson in art class. Her being an artsy sort of young lady liked the beauty of cursive, so she kept with it. Her older siblings can only print. I do not know if they can read it.
Exactly this! The Demons do the same stuff when they can; now is our turn. I have say use everything we have in our quiver and crush them first.
Let’s see, going back before the stolen 2020 elections, just how long had it been since the enemies of the USA were paying foreigners to come here and live, vote, deal deadly drugs to kill our citizens?
All he had to do was blow the dust off it and BOOM!
The only issue I have with the current way of deporting is the use of aircraft. Flying a few dozen illegals around the world is very expensive and really a bad idea. It is more kabuki than effective.
Make all social services, medical and educational services unavailable to non-USA citizens. Set up punitive fines for employers that hire illegals. Make it illegal to sell property to or rent to illegals. Make the return to their homeland seem like the best idea ever.
The Bill of Rights “archaic” as well?
Then stop jawin’ about it, and get to deportin’...
Good for your niece! Smart girl.
Some corrupt judge will rule against him.
Excellent!

Ten commandments, those are really archaic laws!
It’s not “archaic” if it is useful and needed right now.
Archaic? I call it vintage
Dang Trump, using that archaic Constitution again.
Raids will go on until every illegal immigrant is arrested
