DOGE v. The Constitution

🔴 UPDATE: April 7, 2025
Supreme Court Greenlights Trump's Use of 1798 Law to Deport Alleged Venezuelan Gang Members

The Supreme Court just gave Trump the green light to weaponize a 226-year-old law to mass deport Venezuelan migrants to a foreign mega-prison—without any proof they’re criminals. In a 5-4 decision (with Amy Coney Barrett joining the liberal Justices), the Court reinstated Trump’s use of the Alien Enemies Act, historically used to round up Japanese Americans during WWII. This isn’t law enforcement—it’s ethnic cleansing wrapped in legalese.

The ruling doesn’t just enable fascist abuse—it legitimizes it under the guise of due process. While the Court claimed to uphold the right to legal challenge, it handed Trump a roadmap to sidestep it. By requiring that habeas petitions be filed where detainees are held, the Court gave the regime the power to manipulate venue—transferring migrants into hostile jurisdictions where fair hearings are a fantasy. The supposed “notice” requirement is meaningless when the government can vanish people into legal black holes before they even get a lawyer. This wasn’t justice. It was cover.

Key Developments:

• The Supreme Court lifted a federal judge’s injunction, allowing Trump to resume deportations under the Alien Enemies Act despite no formal war or invasion.
  Sources: Reuters, The Guardian, New York Post

• The Court pretended to uphold due process by requiring deportees be given notice and the ability to seek habeas relief—but only in the district where they’re detained. This hands the Trump regime a loophole: they can simply move detainees to hostile jurisdictions to all but guarantee legal defeat. It’s a blueprint for legalized lawlessness.

• Justice Sotomayor warned the ruling may have “life or death consequences,” slamming Trump’s secretive rush to deport plaintiffs before courts could intervene.

• Trump celebrated the ruling as a “great day for justice,” while his DOJ prepares a new wave of mass deportations using the same wartime law that justified internment camps.

The Real Story: Who Wins and Who Pays the Price?

This isn’t about keeping America safe—it’s about flexing raw power. Trump is using 18th-century wartime authority to bypass courts, target immigrants, and stir up his base. Who benefits? The oligarchs and political cronies who thrive in chaos. Who suffers? Working families, immigrants, and the very rule of law. This is how fascism spreads—one precedent at a time.

🔍 Why This Matters:

The Alien Enemies Act was last used to throw Japanese Americans into camps. Now it’s back. The Court didn’t just let it happen—it legitimized it. The right to due process now depends on geography. And Trump’s message is loud and clear: obey, or get disappeared.

🚨 The Bottom Line:

This ruling wasn’t justice—it was surrender. The Court opened the floodgates for unchecked, racially targeted deportations with barely a fig leaf of oversight. Trump and his robber baron allies are testing how far they can go. And if we don’t push back now, they’ll go all the way.
