**U.S. Defies Court Order: Deportations of Venezuelans Continue Amid Controversy**

In a surprising move, U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio has confirmed the deportation of hundreds of Venezuelans despite a federal judge's order against such actions.


The U.S. government sparked outrage when it sent a group of alleged Venezuelan gang affiliates back to El Salvador, just one day after receiving a court mandate to halt the deportations. The federal judge's ruling, issued late Saturday, raised questions as videos emerged showing deportees arriving in El Salvador that same night, which is notable given the time difference. El Salvador's President, Nayib Bukele, humorously acknowledged the situation on social media, posting, "Oopsie… Too late."

This controversial deportation aligns with the Trump administration’s strategy of using historical policies, such as the Alien Enemies Act of 1798, to facilitate the removal of undocumented Venezuelans, particularly those labeled as gang members, without standard due process. Critics have strongly condemned these actions, with the Venezuelan government labeling them as "a crime against humanity."

This situation also reflects the broader ramifications of Trump's immigration policies, which have faced legal challenges. Individuals affected include a Cornell University student suing to prevent deportation over activism for Palestine and a Lebanese doctor at Brown University, who faced expulsion despite holding a valid visa and a judicial protection order.

Concerns about the impacts of Trump's tariffs are also surfacing, with studies suggesting that the very supporters of the administration may bear the brunt of the economic consequences.

As the situation evolves, the international community is closely monitoring the implications of these actions on U.S. immigration law and human rights.
