Trump’s showdown with the courts over migrants

ABC  

Sam Hawley: Donald Trump's showdown with the courts reached a new level this week when he appeared to defy a judge's order blocking the deportation of hundreds of Venezuelan migrants. Sam Hawley: Yeah, so the judge had ruled the deportations couldn't take place, that the planes should come back to America, and at least some of them we know were already in the air. Sam Hawley: All right, well, Ilya, let's turn then to the Trump administration's treatment of the law and the judge. Sam Hawley: Right, okay, and what about the Trump administration continuing to use this very old act, the Alien Enemies Act?
