The Trump administration is under fire for invoking wartime powers to deport Venezuelan migrants. Officials defended the move, citing national security concerns and the need to protect the country from illegal immigration. The use of this law has sparked controversy and debate about immigration policy and border control. With the ongoing migrant crisis, the administration's decision is likely to face scrutiny from human rights groups and immigration advocates, who argue that it undermines asylum seekers' rights and perpetuates a humanitarian crisis. The situation highlights the complexities of US immigration law and the ongoing challenges at the border.
