Trump’s DOJ Asks Supreme Court For Help

Washington, D.C. – In a decisive move to strengthen America’s borders and restore presidential authority, the Trump administration has petitioned the Supreme Court to allow the swift deportation of illegal migrants under the Alien Enemies Act, an 18th-century national security statute.

🛑 Blocked by Obama-Appointed Judge, Trump Fights Back

The emergency request follows a controversial decision by U.S. District Judge James Boasberg—appointed by former President Obama—who temporarily blocked deportations after Trump ordered the removal of illegal Venezuelan nationals with suspected ties to Tren de Aragua, a violent transnational gang.

“This case raises critical questions about who has the final say on national security—the President or activist judges,” said acting Solicitor General Sarah Harris.
“The Constitution is clear: the President must be able to protect the nation.”

🇺🇸 What Is the Alien Enemies Act?

Passed in 1798, this powerful federal law allows the President to deport non-citizens from hostile nations during times of war or foreign invasion. President Trump invoked it after intelligence reports tied members of Tren de Aragua to organized criminal activities on U.S. soil—what he calls an ongoing invasion.

Hundreds of Venezuelan migrants have already been deported to a high-security Salvadoran facility, but left-wing legal groups are fighting to halt further action.

⚖️ Supreme Court Could Decide Fate of Border Enforcement

The administration’s legal brief argues that lower courts are interfering with executive powers and compromising national security by relying on Temporary Restraining Orders (TROs) to block urgent immigration actions.

“Rule-by-TRO is endangering our government’s ability to function,” Harris warned.
“The courts are undermining foreign negotiations and emboldening dangerous actors.”

The emergency appeal now heads to Chief Justice John Roberts, who may act alone or bring the matter before the full Supreme Court.

👨‍⚖️ Who’s Behind the Legal Challenge?

Leading the opposition is the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU), working alongside the Democracy Forward Foundation, a left-wing organization known for suing conservative administrations.

“We’ll urge the Court to stop these deportations,” said ACLU attorney Lee Gelernt, calling Trump’s action “unlawful.”

They represent five Venezuelan migrants, all held by immigration authorities—but some reports indicate links to gang activity.

📌 Why This Matters for America

This case is one of four high-stakes legal battles the Trump administration has brought to the Supreme Court, including:

• 🔹 A push to end birthright citizenship for illegal immigrants
• 🔹 Reforms to fire over 16,000 low-performing federal employees
• 🔹 A freeze on $65 million in teacher training grants tied to woke policies

As the border crisis continues and global threats rise, this legal showdown highlights a bigger issue: Will America be governed by its elected leaders—or by unelected judges and activist lawyers?
