The Trump administration said the people deported were members of a notorious gang called Tren de Aragua and deported them under the Alien Enemies Act of 1798. They landed just hours after U.S. District Judge James E. Boasberg issued an order blocking the administration from using that 18th-century law for deportations. PBS News Weekend's John Yan
