Massive win for Trump as Supreme Court rules he CAN deport illegal migrants using historic wartime act

President Donald Trump scored a huge win in his efforts to deport migrants living in the United States illegally with a major Supreme Court ruling on Monday.

The country's highest court, in an unsigned 5 - 4 ruling, ruled that the Trump administration can invoke the Alien Enemies Act of 1798 to deport alleged Venezuelan gang members.

Trump had declared that members of the Tren de Aragua gang were terrorists, and his border czar Tom Homan spectacularly rounded up suspected gangsters across the United States last month to send them back to 'hell hole' prisons in Venezuela.

But the president's efforts were halted on March 15 when Obama-appointed US District Court Judge James Boasberg issued an injunction blocking the deportations.

That injunction has now been lifted under the Supreme Court's ruling - allowing the president to once again send suspected gang members to their home countries.

Trump hailed the ruling as a 'GREAT DAY FOR JUSTICE IN AMERICA' in a post on his Truth Social page Monday night.

Now the definition of ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS will have a. New meaning. It will now be called whatever trump wants it to be called.

Truthcat:
Not true!
Illegal imigrant is exactly what it is.

Overstaying your visa.
Coming through the border illegally.
Committing visa crimes.

Truthcat:
All the activist judges can now rest.
The Supreme Court had no choice because Trump was ready to ignore those crazy orders from mad judges anyways, and made them look stupid without recourse on their part, so good one from the SCOTUS for at least saving us from more constitutional crises

Eriokanmi:
I don't think so. Pls explain.

Putindbutt:
The issue is that he's also deporting people with documentation.

He needs to be sent back to where ever i comes from, this will serve as a lesson to those other Arabs/middleEast potential terrorist disguising with student visa and permanent residency.

Eriokanmi:
Nigerians, please come back home. Let's join hands and build this country. 2027 is around the corner, hoping same fatal error won't be committed once again. With a good and selfless leader in place, nobody will japa
