Donald Trump to invoke “Enemy Alien” law in coming days to accelerate deportations 🇺🇸
The #Trump administration is expected to invoke broad wartime authority to accelerate mass #deportations in the coming days, according to four sources familiar with the talks. The #Alien Enemies Act of 1798, a little-known piece of legislation from the 18th century, gives the president enormous authority to identify and expel undocumented immigrants, though legal experts have argued that he would face an uphill battle in the courts. A State Department spokesman recently told Voice of America that all countries are obligated to accept back their nationals who are “illegally” in the United States, “including #Venezuela,” the spokesman said when asked about Nicolás Maduro's statements.
