The Supreme Court allowed the Trump administration to continue deporting Venezuelans that it claims are members of a gang under the Alien Enemies Act.

In a separate case, the chief justice temporarily blocked a judge's order for the U.S. to bring back a Salvadoran migrant who lived in Maryland after he was deported in error.

Here & Now's Robin Young looks at both cases with Amanda Frost, law professor at the University of Virginia School of Law.
