Transcript

You're

being detained under the Alien Enemies Act.

Step back.

It's an executive order

fast tracking deportation to individuals deemed a national security risk.

I wasn't going to stay.

I didn't. Please.

You're being placed into custody pending removal

proceedings.

Will I be able to call my sister?

You'll be given a chance to make a call once processing

is complete.

A federal judge recently blocked

the Trump administration's attempt to fast track deportations under.

The Alien Enemies Act.

For now,

your deportation has temporarily been halted.

The judge ruled

that the policy may exceed the administration's legal authority,

placing a temporary hold on removals.

Despite the judge's order,

the administration still deported over 200 Venezuelans.

They're arguing the judge's order didn't apply once the planes were in the air.

You could be on a

plane in hours, or you could be here indefinitely.

It's uncertain as this legal battle plays out.
