A federal judge in New York on Tuesday indefinitely blocked the Trump Administration from deporting Tren de Aragua gang members under the Alien Enemies Act.
In his order granting a preliminary injunction enjoining the enforcement of the Alien Enemies Act in his district, Judge Hellerstein said illegal aliens have the same due process rights as American citizens.
“This nation was founded on the “self-evident” truths “that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, [and] that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.” Declaration of Independence, at ¶ 2 (1776). Our Constitution embodies these truths, in a limited government of enumerated powers, in its system of checks and balances separating the executive, legislative and judicial branches, and in its guarantee that neither citizen nor alien be “deprived of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law,”” Hellerstein wrote in a 22-page order.
Last month US District Judge Alvin Hellerstein, a 91-year-old Clinton appointee, blasted DOJ lawyers during a hearing and accused them throwing people out of the US “because of their tattoos.”
After blocking the removal of two Tren de Aragua gang members in New York last month, Judge Hellerstein on Tuesday issued a preliminary injunction and enjoined enforcement of the Alien Enemies Act in the Southern District of New York.
Judge Hellerstein is the second federal judge to issue an injunction blocking deportations under the Alien Enemies Act.

Senile.... Ignore him.
How can a state judge put an injunction on a Supreme Court ruling? The Supreme Court ruled deporting people was perfectly legal, so how can a state Supreme say no?
Because nobody is being arrested for treason.
This is obviously a conspiracy by the leftist judiciary but our JD can’t walk and chew gum.
I don't think so Tim
If that’s the case, then we don’t have those rights because the illegals can walk all over us and take without giving as regards taxes and government benefits.
Good Lord! Another senile-ridden biden wannabe still holding court? Why hasn’t he been forced to retire for cryin’ out loud.
Has anyone fact checked this 91 year old creep.
Chief Justice Roberts would prefer that all of these problems go away - but these idiots make him look like a fool if he does not act - and soon.
How do you get these judges gone? This is real treason.
Roberts has TDS. Nothing else matters to him.
Does he think his quote is in the US Constitution?
And yet, Traitor Roberts remain in charge of vast judicial conspiracy to annul the Constitution.
Roberts has long been the Fool.....
That is outside his jurisdiction. The act clearly states that the courts are only involved if a citizen brings a case against an alien on their way out the door.
It clearly specified that the president alone has the power to designate the predatory incursion or invasion and to decide how he removes the alien enemy.
No role for the court.
This old bass turd doesn’t have any standing. He isn’t going to be around long enough to see the damage and destruction these Venezuelan maggots are going to cause to our United States.
Insanity.
And that's the whole idea. Cloward-Piven the immigration systems. Destroy the notion of state sovereignty, which is specifically called out in the constitution.
Break the institutions by shear overload.
