The Rich Zeoli Show- Hour 1:
3:05pm- On Friday, President Donald Trump issued orders to deport roughly 250 dangerous gang members who entered the U.S. unlawfully—sending them to El Salvador where they will be held at the country’s “terrorism confinement center.” Judge E. Boasberg, of the U.S. District Court for D.C., ordered the Trump Administration to have the planes reverse course and return the detainees to the United States. However, due to the late timing of the order, the Trump Administration followed through with the deportation as planned. The administration contends the removals were lawful and within the established powers of the executive branch, specifically citing the Alien Enemies Act of 1798.
3:30pm- Rich references the 1984 film, “Red Dawn”—starring Patrick Swayze, Charlie Sheen, and Jennifer Grey. Matt reveals he has never seen the original, but he has seen the terrible 2012 remake starring Chirs Hemsworth. He also concedes he has never seen the original “Top Gun” or Oliver Stone’s “JFK.”
3:45pm- The Alien Enemies Act of 1798, which the Trump Administration cited as grounds for legally deporting Tren de Aragua gang members who entered the United States illegally, states: “Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America in Congress assembled, That whenever…any invasion or predatory incursion shall be perpetrated, attempted, or threatened against the territory of the United States, by any foreign nation or government, and the President of the United States shall make public proclamation of the event, all natives, citizens, denizens, or subjects of the hostile nation or government, being males of the age of fourteen years and upwards, who shall be within the United States, and not actually naturalized, shall be liable to be apprehended, restrained, secured and removed, as alien enemies.”
