10:34Now PlayingJudge James Boasberg fought Trump's use of the Alien Enemies Act—but an exchange during that legal battle may have inadvertently pointed the Trump administration toward another powerful deportation tool.
Andrew Branca explains how Boasberg referenced the little-known Alien Terrorist Removal Court as an alternative mechanism available to the administration. The twist? This special court had existed since 1996 without reportedly handling a single case. Now the Trump administration has apparently activated it for the first time. Andrew calls the move “political jiu-jitsu on Boasberg.”
Andrew breaks down how this unusual court works, the limited process available under the statute, the use of sealed national-security evidence, who may potentially fall within its jurisdiction, and how it could provide an expedited path to removing qualifying aliens accused of terrorism-related activity without relying on the ordinary immigration-court process.
