Trump's Understanding of Due Process Is Just As Farcical As His Definition of 'Alien Enemies'
A new ACLU lawsuit argues that the government still is not giving alleged gang members the "notice" required by a Supreme Court order.
A new ACLU lawsuit argues that the government still is not giving alleged gang members the "notice" required by a Supreme Court order.
The memo says "Alien Enemies" aren't subject "to a judicial review of the removal in any court of the United States."
The court ruled that Trump invoked the AEA illegally, blocks deportation of Venezuelan migrants who filed the case, and sets out standards for notifying them of their rights to challenge their deportation.

U.S. District Judge James Boasberg says the evidence indicates that the government "willfully disobeyed" his order blocking removal of alleged Venezuelan gang members.
The Supreme Court unanimously rejected that claim, upholding the right to due process in deportation cases.
This case has crucial implications for the ability of migrants to effectively challenge illegal AEA deportations.
Although the Court lifted an order that temporarily blocked removal of suspected gang members, it unambiguously affirmed their right to judicial review.
A new global survey reveals a stark decline in Americans' support for free speech as the Trump administration tightens its grip on expression.
The Trump administration says it is shameful even to suggest that immigration agents could make such errors.
Judge Boasberg ruled the migrants are entitled to due process in determing whether they really are "alien enemies" covered by the Act.
The latest tariffs appear to be like many before that were promised but never enacted.
The move is an escalation of the White House's attempt to claim an unchallengeable and unreviewable amount of power.
The Administration ended the CHNV "parole" program for 530,000 migrants from four Latin American nations, including three ruled by authoritarian socialist regimes. They will soon be subject to deportation.
We can't be sure, and that's why due process matters.
The people deported are incarcerated in Salvadoran prisons without any due process whatsoever.
They used the Act to deport some 137 Venezuelan migrants to El Salvador even after a federal court issued a temporary restraining order blocking such action.
The White House invoked a rare wartime law to deport alleged Venezuelan gang members to El Salvador, sparking a legal battle.
The new administration is seeking to gut much of the legal immigration system, which will do great harm to immigrants and natives alike.
Nearly 40 percent of Americans have at least one ancestor who entered the U.S. through Ellis Island. However, today's migrants may be shut out and deported, a humanitarian tragedy that would profoundly damage the U.S. economy.
Designating cartels as terrorist organizations could allow the feds to prosecute people who pay protection money—and might pave the way for undeclared war.
President-elect Edmundo González has vowed to challenge Maduro's grip on power.
I have long advocated using May 1 for this purpose. But November 7 is a worthy alternative candidate, which I am happy to adopt if it can attract a broad consensus.
Even the poorest citizens of free countries fare better than the middle classes in economically repressive nations.
Venezuela is governed not only by a brutal dictatorship, but by a band of depraved criminals who have enriched themselves in part by stealing money intended to buy food for hungry children.
The U.N. has documented killings, forced disappearances, and torture.
The decision is simultaneously cruel and counterproductive.
"Either I signed or I would face consequences," Edmundo González said.
This latest stunt is nothing more than an attempted distraction from the country's deepening political and economic crises.
The arrest warrant against Edmundo González, the recognized winner of the contested Venezuelan election, only fuels the opposition's resolve against the regime.
The program should not have been suspended to begin with. The restart, unfortunately, includes some dubious security measures that will make applications more difficult and time-consuming.

Under collectivism, "a man must be prepared to break every moral rule," F.A. Hayek observed in 1944.
Whether it’s Trump’s “Stop the Steal” rhetoric or Hillary Clinton’s claim that Trump was not a “legitimate president,” unsubstantiated allegations of election fraud are unseemly.
His rule threatens U.S. interests by stifling market opportunities, fueling illegal immigration, and elevating regional security risks.
Fact check: Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro is the leader of the Socialist Party.
The Venezuelan experience shows that democracy cannot cure the evils of socialism, and that a democratic socialist system is unlikely to remain democratic for long.
And if the results are proven false, will Venezuela finally move away from authoritarian rule?
