Former President Donald Trump is reportedly planning to invoke the Alien Enemies Act, a wartime law from 1798, to carry out mass deportations if re-elected.
The law grants the president broad authority to detain or deport non-citizens from nations deemed hostile to the U.S. This move is expected to be a key part of Trump's immigration crackdown, which has been a central theme of his campaign. Critics argue that using the law in this way could lead to legal challenges and humanitarian concerns.
Supporters claim it is necessary to address illegal immigration and national security threats.
