A federal judge has ruled that President Trump's invocation of the Alien Enemies Act to deport alleged migrant gang members is lawful, in contrast to two other judges.

A federal judge says President Donald Trump can use the Alien Enemies Act to deport Venezuelan citizens who are shown to be members of the Tren de Aragua gang.

A federal judge in Virginia ordered the government to release from custody a Georgetown University academic and foreign national who was arrested in March, dealing another setback to the Trump administration’s efforts to deport people it says pose national-security threats.

U.S. District Judge Patricia Giles said the government offered no evidence that Indian-born Badar Khan Suri posed a danger to the community.
