The Supreme ruled 5-4 Monday to lift U.S. District Judge James Boasberg’s temporary restraining order blocking the Trump administration’s use of the Alien Enemies Act to deport alleged Venezuelan gang members.

The majority of the court ruled that “AEA detainees must receive notice after the date of this order that they are subject to removal under the Act” and “notice must be afforded within a reasonable time and in some manner as will allow them to actually seek habeas relief.”

“This is a landmark victory for the rule of law, and this is what we’ve been arguing on behalf of President Trump from Day One,” Bondi said. “These are enemies of our state, of our country, and they should be deported.”

Bondi said there are many reasons Americans are safer following the decision.

“From this point forward, the hearing will be held; it’s a habeas hearing in the court of confinement, which means in Texas,” she said. “So, it will be a much faster hearing. They can’t do class actions. It will be a much smoother, simpler hearing, and these people will be deported.”

SUPREME COURT LIFTS ORDER AGAINST TRUMP USING WARTIME LAW FOR DEPORTATIONS

While the Trump administration will be able to use the AEA, which has historically been reserved for wartime threats, to resume deportations, justices on the court have yet to decide whether the AEA authorizes them.

This could raise challenges similar to Boasberg’s case in the future, and a new case could come to the Supreme Court.
