U.S. Supreme Court Orders Halt to Trump Deportations to El Salvador

The U.S. Supreme Court has ordered the Trump administration to pause the deportation of accused Venezuelan gang members under an 18th-century wartime law.

A civil liberties group is suing the administration over planned deportations of Venezuelans held in a detention centre in north Texas.

On Saturday, the Supreme Court ordered the government to "not remove any member of the putative class of detainees from the United States until further order of this Court".

All three Trump appointees signed onto the 7-2 decision (Justices Clarence Thomas and Samuel Alito dissented.)

The lawsuit by the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) that resulted in Saturday's order, the organisation said that without the court's intervention "dozens or hundreds of proposed class members may be removed to a possible life sentence in El Salvador with no real opportunity to contest their designation or removal".
