Ellie Honig, a senior legal analyst at CNN, said Monday that President Donald Trump may not have ignored the orders of a federal judge who temporarily blocked South America from deporting hundreds of Venezuelan gang members.
US District Judge James E. Boasburg It’s blocked Saturday’s deportation said he already had two planes in the air on his way to El Salvador and Honduras. The White House denied rebelling against Boasberg’s orders, but Honig added that if the plane had already landed or was outside of US territory, the administration may not be violating the orders.
“They come right in the line, maybe on it and let you give them specific details we should know to make this resolve,” Honig said. “The judge now issued an order and he told the court on Saturday afternoon, “I want no one to fly from here, or if the flight is already in the air, I want you to turn them around.” Where was the plane at that moment? If they were already on the ground in the United States, yes there was a rebellion of orders. If they had already landed in El Salvador, no, there was no rebellion of order, so it was already too late. ”
“If they were in flight, will the question be where we were? Were they crossing American territory or international oceans? And that’s some grey territory. It might give the Trump administration something to hang their hats,” continued Honig.

The judge verbally order It is not included in his written ruling for the plane to be returned to the United States.
White House Press Secretary Caroline Leavitt I said The plane was already outside of US territory, claiming that one judge had no jurisdiction over the president’s diplomacy.
“The administration “did not refuse to comply with the court’s order,” Leavitt said. “The order without legitimate grounds was issued after the terrorist TDA aliens were already excluded from US territory. The written order and the administration’s actions are not inconsistent. Furthermore, as repeatedly made clear by the Supreme Court, federal courts generally have no jurisdiction over the president’s act of diplomacy, his authority under the Foreign Enemy Act, and his main Article II powers to remove foreign foreign terrorists from the US soil and fight back against declared infringement. A single judge in a single city cannot direct the movement of an aircraft carrying foreign terrorists physically expelled from US soil.”
Trump Called The alien enemies act to deport members of the Venezuela Tren de Agua gang. Honig said that the use of alien enemy law will bring lawsuits in court, but the law is usually invoked when two countries are at war or when the US is being invaded by foreign governments.
“What the law says is that it actually gives the president a very broad discretion to expel non-citizens in two scenarios. One is, of course, not that if there is a declared war with another country. We are not a declared war now,” Honig said. “Secondly, if there is an aggression by a foreign government. Now, the Trump administration argues that this gangster, Tren de Agua, is inherently an invasion in the US, and that despite this being a gang, they are kind of inconsistent or inseparable from the Venezuelan government. I think both are offensive and novel arguments that they do to court.”
Law Allow non-citizens to be deported without them going before immigrants or federal court judges. It was enacted in 1798, when the United States believed it was on the brink of war with France, urging Congress to pass a set of laws that allowed the president to detain and deport non-citizens during the war.
President of El Salvador, President Naive Buquere Confirmed His country received 238 members and 23 MS-13 members of Tren de Agua, two of whom were masterminds. He is openly ock ha ha An order from a federal judge to stop the deportation by stating that X was “too late.”
“As always, we continue to fight organized crime. But this time we have the vital intelligence to support our allies, to independently build our prison system and to make our nation even safer. Everything is in a single action. May God bless El Salvador and God bless America,” Bukere said.
