Trump's Use of the Alien Enemies Act
Manage episode 464748833 series 3264489
What if a 200-year-old law could be used today to reshape America’s immigration policies? The Alien Enemies Act of 1798 is still on the books, giving presidents sweeping powers to detain and deport non-citizens during wartime or national emergencies. From its controversial use in World War I and II to fears of modern-day mass deportations, this law remains a ticking time bomb in the hands of executive power. But is it even constitutional? Could it be enforced without a formal war? And what does this mean for civil liberties today?
Join us as we unravel the history, controversy, and future of this powerful and potentially dangerous law.
