Boasberg in Washington has drawn clear limits for the Trump administration and expressed serious doubts about the use of a historic wartime law for deportations. James E. Boasberg made clear in a multi-hour hearing that the Alien Enemies Act of 1798 was created for war or an actual invasion, not for sweeping measures against migrants without proceedings. Applying the law to Venezuelan nationals who are broadly accused of gang membership is, in his view, legally problematic. Particularly serious for the court is the fact that those affected have no real opportunity to contest these allegations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image alignwide size-full\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\" height=\"359\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/kaizen-blog.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/judge-James-Boasberg.webp?resize=640%2C359&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-26902\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/kaizen-blog.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/judge-James-Boasberg.webp?w=998&amp;ssl=1 998w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/kaizen-blog.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/judge-James-Boasberg.webp?resize=18%2C10&amp;ssl=1 18w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/kaizen-blog.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/judge-James-Boasberg.webp?resize=300%2C168&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/kaizen-blog.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/judge-James-Boasberg.webp?resize=768%2C431&amp;ssl=1 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><strong>James E. Boasberg<\/strong><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The judge also announced that he would continue to investigate whether the government disregarded his order to halt deportation flights. Two aircraft are said to have continued on to El Salvador despite a judicial order to return. Boasberg described the government\u2019s cooperation as insufficient and said he wanted to determine whether his order was violated and who was responsible. At the same time, he sharply criticized the tone of the Justice Department in written filings as disrespectful and unusually aggressive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The case now stands for a fundamental conflict between the executive and the judiciary. The government argues that courts have only limited authority to review the president\u2019s assessment of war or invasion. Lawyers for those affected counter that the law is being used as a blunt instrument to carry out deportations without effective oversight. Even the reference to an emergency petition offers no protection if people have already been removed from the country.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">At the same time, the government is pushing back against judicial oversight and has publicly attacked the judge, including calls for impeachment. Boasberg remains unimpressed. He indicated that he is even considering an independent review process to determine whether the people slated for deportation are actually who the authorities claim they are. The dispute makes clear how far-reaching the confrontation over power, law, and the limits of state action has become.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Our report at the time from the in-between world<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The responsible U.S. federal judge James Boasberg had already tried at that time to stop the application of the law. When flights nevertheless went ahead, he spoke of a violation of his order and demanded that the aircraft be turned back. The Department of Homeland Security responded that the planes were already outside U.S. airspace and that intervention was no longer possible. Trump himself tried to distance himself from the affair. Speaking to journalists, he said Secretary of State Marco Rubio had been responsible for the operation:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cMarco wanted them out. We went along with it.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A sentence that raises more questions than it answers. Because whether president or minister, only the president is authorized under the Alien Enemies Act to sign such a proclamation and it must be published. The legal and political significance cannot be underestimated. Judge Boasberg sharply criticized the Justice Department, which refused to release further information to him citing national security. Boasberg:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cI will get to the bottom of this.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So will we. After days of painstaking work, flight movements were analyzed, legal foundations examined, archival material reviewed, and statements from the environment of the White House obtained. The full documentation and all materials relating to the proclamation, the exact flight routes, and the relevant registry entries from the Federal Register were compiled and at that time submitted to the competent court in Washington, D.C. Because this was not just about a law from the 18th century. It is about people, about the rule of law, and about the question of whether a state is willing to abide by its own rules or only when they suit it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Legal short memorandum on the validity of the presidential proclamation of March 14, 2025<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Facts:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Deportation of Venezuelan migrants between March 15 and 18, 2025 on the basis of a presidential proclamation signed on March 14, 2025 but not published in the Federal Register until March 20, 2025. Legal framework: Federal Register Act (44 U.S.C. \u00a7 1505): Provisions of general applicability become legally effective only upon publication in the Federal Register. Without such publication, application to affected third parties is not permissible. Alien Enemies Act (50 U.S.C. \u00a7 21\u201324): Explicitly requires a presidential proclamation. According to established administrative practice, this must be published in order to serve as a basis for executive measures.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image alignwide size-full\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\" height=\"354\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/kaizen-blog.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/kaizennewsday-2026-01-23T032317.189.webp?resize=640%2C354&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-26901\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/kaizen-blog.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/kaizennewsday-2026-01-23T032317.189.webp?w=905&amp;ssl=1 905w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/kaizen-blog.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/kaizennewsday-2026-01-23T032317.189.webp?resize=18%2C10&amp;ssl=1 18w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/kaizen-blog.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/kaizennewsday-2026-01-23T032317.189.webp?resize=300%2C166&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/kaizen-blog.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/kaizennewsday-2026-01-23T032317.189.webp?resize=768%2C424&amp;ssl=1 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Legal assessment: The deportations between March 15 and 18, 2025 occurred before the proclamation became legally effective. There is no exception in U.S. law that permits the application of unpublished proclamations to third parties. Therefore, the deportations are not based on a legally valid foundation and can be legally characterized as unlawful.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Here are the names of the people who were deported.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It was a clear day in Harlingen, Texas, when the planes lifted off \u2013 almost casually, almost like any other aircraft at a regional airport more accustomed to agricultural machinery than to international conflicts. But aboard the three GlobalX flights were no tourists, no business travelers \u2013 they were men. 238 Venezuelans. Young. Invisible. And from now on, officially enemies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">They flew because someone had decided that they must fly. Because an old clause, born from fear of Jacobins and Royalists in the year 1798, stripped them of their humanity. The Alien Enemies Act \u2013 dragged from the mothballs of American history, reinterpreted, activated \u2013 declared them wartime adversaries. They were neither armed nor charged. They hadn\u2019t even been heard. And yet \u2013 three flights, three destinations, one goal \u2013 El Salvador. CECOT. The prison that knows no word for mercy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It was March 15, 2025, and somewhere in Washington a court hearing was underway at the same hour. A federal judge had wanted to stop the flight. But while lawyers were still speaking, the planes had already taken off. The government \u2013 as it is later stated in a court document \u2013 had been \u201cunable to provide information for reasons of national security.\u201d Two flights left Harlingen between 5:25 p.m. and 5:45 p.m. A third followed thereafter. On the papers: flight numbers 6143, 6145, 6122.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">What followed was not a repatriation but a transfer into darkness. In El Salvador, no authorities awaited them \u2013 but heavily armed units. The men were dragged out, loaded into transporters, shaved bald, imprisoned. No one knows what they have seen since. Whether they are allowed to speak. Whether they cry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Now the list is available. The names of the 238 men who were deported because it was claimed they were members of a gang whose name has by now become a global political pretext \u2013 Tren de Aragua. For many families, the truth came by chance \u2013 a news video, a blurry image from inside CECOT, a Facebook post. The U.S. government says that some of these men had prior convictions. And at the same time \u2013 many did not.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">That is the essence of this era. Innocence does not have to be disproven, it only has to be asserted away. What counts is the order. The flight. The deportation. The function of force, disguised as order. Through laborious investigative work, flight manifests, passenger data, AWS keys were assembled, with the help of some computer collectives included.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">GlobalX \u2013 the charter airline that draws $65 million a year from a lucrative contract with CSI Aviation \u2013 declined to comment. ICE also remained silent. In truth, no one needs a statement anymore. The planes have flown. The men are gone. And the law that expelled them was not the law of justice \u2013 but the law of opportunism.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Perhaps one day someone will say they did something wrong. Perhaps not. Perhaps they were simply born in the wrong place at the wrong time. Perhaps they were simply there.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Here are many of their names. Each of them a whole person. And now \u2013 a number in a flight log, a file, a face behind bars.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Agelviz Sanguino, Widmer Josneyder<br>Aguilar Rodriguez, Nolberto Rafae<br>Aguilera
