from The Daily Aus · host The Daily Aus
U.S. President Donald Trump has invoked a centuries-old wartime law to deport Venezuelan nationals he claims are members of a notorious gang. Despite a federal judge ordering a pause on these deportations, a plane carrying 238 people still left for El Salvador on Sunday. Today, we'll break down how we got here, what this means and why it's setting the stage for a major legal battle.
