Authorities defend use of wartime law

Trump administration officials on Sunday defended their use of extraordinary war powers to deport scores of Venezuelan migrants despite a judge blocking the move and Venezuela denying US officials’ assertions that the deportees were gang members.

“It’s modern-day warfare, and we are going to continue to fight that and protect American citizens every single step of the way,” Attorney General Pam Bondi told Fox News host Maria Bartiromo on Sunday Morning Futures.

Ms Bondi said the Trump administration’s decision to deport 137 Venezuelan migrants to El Salvador was justified because they were members of Venezuela's feared Tren de Aragua (TdA) gang and posed a safety risk.

Venezuela's interior minister, Diosdado Cabello, said on Friday, however, that none of the Venezuelans deported by the US to El Salvador were members of the gang, which Washington has declared a terrorist group. Relatives and immigration advocates for some of the men have also denied any links.
