#Trump deported >200 supposed members of Tren de Aragua, a Venezuelan prison gang, to El Salvador this weekend, multiple members of the Trump admin said on social media on Sunday.

It was not immediately clear if the #deportations happened before or after a federal judge in DC on Sat issued an emergency order that told the admin to stop using wartime powers to #deport anyone, & turn around any planes already in the air.

Reminder that the Saudis, backed by US and UK, bombed the Yemenis non-stop and savagely from 2015-22. The alliance also imposed a blockade which caused a famine and pushed millions of kids to brink of starvation.

The Yemenis remained undefeated. Trump and Starmer have no chance.

🇺🇸Donald Trump ordered the US military to bomb Yemen, killing at least 19 people.

The US empire is punishing Yemen because it's one of the very few countries that is actually trying to stop Israel's US-sponsored genocide and ethnic cleansing of Palestinians.

Advocates for immigrants raised alarms Sat amid reports that the #Trump admin, after signing the proclamation w/o publicizing it, had arranged to spirit immigrants onto airplanes & out of the country, in particular to El Salvador, where Trump agreed last month to house immigrants & US #citizens who had been convicted of crimes.

The ACLU says the men do not have any ties to the criminal group.

Judge Boasberg said the immigrants clearly face irreparable harm, “given that these folks will be deported & many or the vast majority to prisons in other countries or sent back to #Venezuela, where they face persecution, or worse.”

“This is something that you need to make sure is complied with immediately,” he told the #DOJ.

US District Judge James Boasberg, the chief judge in DC, quickly blocked ofcls from deporting Venezuelans under the proclamation after #CivilRights groups filed a challenge earlier Sat. As he issued his ruling, the judge said he heard that “flights are actively departing” & ordered the #Trump admin to immediately halt the removals & return to the #UnitedStates any flights that are in the air.
