Trump's use of wartime law for Venezuela deportations is unlawful, judge rules

Contributing sentiments towards policy:

47% : The judge, appointed by Trump during his first term in office, permanently barred the administration from deporting Venezuelans detained in the Southern District of Texas under the law.
39% : Lee Gelernt, a lawyer with the American Civil Liberties Union who is representing the Venezuelan migrants, said Congress did not intend for the law to be used in the manner in which Trump has deployed it.
30% : "The President's invocation of the AEA through the Proclamation exceeds the scope of the statute and, as a result, is unlawful," wrote Rodriguez, whose district includes the detention facility from which at least 137 Venezuelan men were deported to El Salvador on March 15, immediately after Trump invoked the law.
