It’s a shame that it’s even necessary to dig deep into the law to boot illegal aliens out
Trump wants to use a 226-year-old law to deport millions of undocumented migrants. Can he do it?
Donald Trump’s pathway to deporting millions of undocumented migrants may hinge on a 226-year-old law that was last used to detain non-citizens of Japanese, German and Italian descent during the Second World War.
The 1798 Alien Enemies Act is a potential tool the U.S. president-elect has said he will use to try to make good on one of his key campaign pledges that otherwise could be stalled significantly by the legal machinations of the deportation process.
“If Trump were to try to use the normal procedures, it would [be to] round up a lot of people and put them into immigration court proceedings,” said Stephen Yale-Loehr, a professor of immigration law at Cornell University.
“But it would be a long time before they could actually be deported.” (snip)
The president may invoke the act in times of “declared war” or when a foreign government threatens or undertakes an “invasion” or “predatory incursion” against U.S. territory, Ebright recently wrote in a report for the Brennan Center, a nonpartisan law and justice institute.
Another requirement is that the invasion or incursion must be perpetrated by a foreign nation or government, Ebright noted.
Could it work? It might be a reach. But, the courts could rule in his favor, because you know that the Democrats, and maybe a few squishy Republicans, in the Senate will stop any legislation which changes the idiotic laws that allow anyone to cross the border and claim asylum.

Abraham Sosa, 20, who lives above a day care center in the Bronx, was spotted trespassing and urinating inside an unauthorized tunnel area of a Bronx subway station on Nov. 5 at around 4:30 p.m. when police approached him and repeatedly asked for his identification, which he refused to provide, the NYPD tells Fox News Digital. (big snip through all their crimes)
The New York Post, citing sources, reports that the two suspects are migrants. Post sources said a tattoo on Mayren’s arm links him to a vicious drug cartel.
Should these people even be in the U.S.? Why would they be eligible to claim asylum?
