Waltz Defends Use Of Alien Enemies Act To Remove Tren De Aragua Terrorists

National Security Adviser Mike Waltz defended over the weekend the administration’s use of the Alien Enemies Act to deport members of the Venezuelan illegal alien terrorist group Tren de Aragua.

Waltz made the remarks during a Sunday CBS News interview with Margaret Brennan on “Face The Nation” when asked about approximately 250 members of Tren de Aragua who were deported several days ago to El Salvador.

“President Trump has determined that this group is acting as a terrorist organization,” he said. “It is terrorizing our communities through attacks, torture, rape and the most awful of situations for those communities, number one.”

“And, number two, the Alien Sedition Act fully applies because we have also determined that this group is acting as a proxy of the Maduro regime,” he continued. “TDA is acting as a proxy of the Maduro regime. This is how the Alien [Enemies] Act applies. And we cannot have district judges interfering with the commander in chief’s actions to take care of in the way he deems necessary a terrorist organization.”

Waltz said that Venezuelan socialist dictator Nicolas Maduro was “deliberately emptying his prisons in a proxy manner to influence and attack the United States.”

Fibis I am just an average American. My teen years were in the late 70s and I participated in all that that decade offered. Started working young, too young. Then I joined the Army before I graduated High School. I spent 25 years in, mostly in Infantry units. Since then I've worked in information technology positions all at small family owned companies. At this rate I'll never be a tech millionaire. When I was young I rode horses as much as I could. I do believe I should have been a cowboy. I'm getting in the saddle again by taking riding lessons and see where it goes.
