Aclu’s lawyer says “anyone” can be expelled if there is no supervision
An American Civil Liberties lawyer Union (Aclu) warned that “anyone can be collected” if President Donald Trump uses the Alien Enemies Act without judicial supervision.
Sunday Lee Gelerner spoke of “60 minutes” of the CBS that he is news of illegal Venezuelan migrants deported to a prison of El Salvador Although presumably he has no group ties or criminalboxes. This followed the Trump administration by invoking the Alien Enemies law of 1798 to immediately expel violent illegal immigrants who considered themselves members of bands such as Tren de Aragua.
Gelerner, who is part of the ACLU’s legal challenge against the Trump administration, insisted that the president does not have the right to send someone who was deported to a prison in another country.

“Each administration returns to 1798 understood that this is the war authority to use when the United States He is at war with a foreign government, “said Gelerner.” The administration is saying: ‘Not only will we use it against a criminal organization, but you, the courts, have no role. You can’t tell us that we are violating the law or stopping. “”
The corresponding “60 minutes” Cecilia Vega reported about other legal concerns deriving from the concerns that clandestine immigrants without group bonds have been sent to this prison without the right trial.
Gelernert warned “everything is possible” if the Trump administration continues to invoke the Alien Enemies Act in this way.

“There are many people who could hear what you are saying and say that these people have no documents. They should be expelled. To this, you say what?” I asked Vega.
“If I am illegally here and do not have the right to stay, they can be returned to their country of origin. If they have committed crimes, they can be pursued and perhaps spend many, many years in a United States prison,” said Gelert. “Isn’t it a matter of ” these individuals can be punished? ‘Is a matter of how the government will do it.
Fox News Digital Removed the White House for a comment, but immediately received an answer.
The Trump administration recognized last week he had erroneously deported Salvadoran Kilmar Abrego Garcia in the prison of El Salvador despite a federal judge who rules five years ago that could not be expelled for the concerns that would become the victim of local bands.
His asylum request was denied, but he was given protection from deportation and the ICE did not appeal to the decision.

The Trump administration said that Garcia’s removal was an “administrative error” but defended the decision, claiming that Garcia has ties with Ms-13.
