Federal Judge Raises Concerns Over Deportation of Venezuelan Migrants Without Due Process, Drawing Historical Comparisons to WWII Treatment of Nazis

A federal appellate judge expressed concerns about the treatment of Venezuelan migrants deported to El Salvador and detained without due process, drawing a historical comparison to the treatment of Nazi detainees during World War II. Judge Patricia Millett highlighted the differences in legal proceedings, noting that Nazis were given hearings under the Alien Enemies Act, whereas the Trump administration deported migrants without notice based on unverified gang affiliations. The government's defense of these actions has sparked legal and ethical debates, leading to a pause by a lower court judge as the courts examine the balance between national security and individual rights.
