The 5-4 ruling allows challenges but mandates they occur in Texas. The decision follows an emergency appeal amid tensions between the White House and federal courts.

The Supreme Court, in a narrow 5-4 decision, has lifted the block on deporting Venezuelan migrants by the Trump administration under the Alien Enemies Act.

The ruling mandates that migrants can challenge their deportation but confines those legal proceedings to Texas, rather than Washington.

This decision emerged after an emergency appeal by the administration, underscoring ongoing tensions with the federal judiciary.
