U.S. judge extends block on Trump use of wartime law for deportations

A U.S. Federal judge, James Boasberg, extended a block on President Donald Trump's use of the Alien Enemies Act to expel alleged Venezuelan gang members until April 12, 2025.
The American Civil Liberties Union argues that the law denies due process to the migrants, challenging Trump's use of the act.
The Justice Department has requested the Supreme Court to lift the block after the D.C. Circuit Court upheld the initial temporary restraining order.
Another ruling in Boston barred deportations of migrants to countries without a connection or court appearance.
