Judicial Showdown: Trump Admin Defies Court Over Venezuelan Deportations
A federal judge challenges the Trump administration's deportation of Venezuelans under the Alien Enemies Act. Despite a court order to halt, flights continued, sparking inquiries into the executive's reach. Allegations of ties to gang networks were unsubstantiated, raising concerns over potential constitutional crises.

In a fierce legal confrontation, a federal judge is demanding answers from the Trump administration regarding the expulsion of Venezuelans. Despite a judicial order to cease deportations, flights continued, depicting a contentious struggle over presidential power.
The administration labeled the deported individuals as part of the Tren de Aragua gang, citing national security motivations. However, lacking evidence, their claims face scrutiny, casting doubt on the executive's decision-making process.
As legal proceedings unfold, questions about constitutional checks and balances arise. The case may symbolize a growing rift between different government branches, intensifying debates over the boundaries of executive authority.
