00:00All right, let's get to some news.

00:01It's four minutes after the top of the hour.

00:02The White House is defending its decision

00:04to send hundreds of alleged gang members

00:07to a super prison down in El Salvador.

00:09And President Trump is thanking the country

00:12for taking all of those illegal migrants in.

00:15Good job, El Salvador.

00:16One of the great stories essential in South America.

00:18Maddie Rivera is live in Washington.

00:20Maddie.

00:21Hi guys, good morning.

00:21The president of El Salvador says

00:23more than 200 trend Aragua members

00:26arrived in the country over the weekend.

00:28He also says they received almost two dozen

00:30MS-13 gang members from the U.S.

00:33A senior Trump administration official

00:35tells our Bill Malugian 261 illegal aliens

00:38were deported to El Salvador.

00:40In total, 101 were Venezuelans removed via Title VIII

00:44and 137 were deported through the Alien Enemies Act of 1798.

00:49And that's what's been causing a lot of controversy.

00:53This wartime authority gives the president

00:55the power to deport non-citizens

00:57without a judicial hearing

00:58during a period of war or invasion.

01:00The act has only been used three other times

01:02in American history.

01:04This is the first time it's been invoked since World War II.

01:07But the president is justifying its use.

01:11Well, this is a time of war

01:12because Biden allowed millions of people,

01:15many of them criminals,

01:17many of them at the highest level.

01:20They emptied jails out,

01:21other nations emptied their jails into the United States.

01:24That's an invasion.

01:26On Saturday, a federal judge

01:28ordered the Trump administration

01:29to stop removals under the act

01:31to see if its invocation is legal.

01:33And he ordered deportation flights to turn around.

01:36But the White House says the planes

01:38were already outside of U.S. airspace.

01:40So they argue the judge's ruling no longer applied.

01:44White House Press Secretary Caroline Leavitt

01:46says the administration did not refuse

01:48to comply with a court order.

01:50Leavitt goes on to say federal courts

01:52generally have no jurisdiction

01:54over the president's conduct of foreign affairs,

01:57adding a single judge in a single city

01:59cannot direct the movements of an aircraft carrier

02:02full of Aryan alien terrorists

02:04who are physically expelled from U.S. soil.

02:07The temporary restraining order

02:08is in effect for 14 days.

02:10A hearing is scheduled on March 21st.

02:13Lawrence Ainsley and Brian.

02:15All right.

02:16It's incredible.

02:17Thank you so much.

02:17When you look at their rap sheets,

02:18it's hard to believe that some judge was saying,

02:21keep them here in America

02:23because they're alleged gang members

02:25and their rap sheets are long.

02:26These are career criminals that were in America

02:29in this great country of El Salvador.

02:31The president there working hand in hand with Donald Trump

02:33decided they can come here.

02:35And you see in the video,

02:36their heads were being forced down.

02:38They're being transported one by one.

02:39They're getting their heads shaved.

02:41They're walking with their hands behind their necks.

02:44And this is all at a detention center,

02:45the El Salvador Terrorism Confinement Center.

02:48And the president down there says

02:50they will stay for at least a year.

02:51Yet again, I find myself amazed with the Democratic Party

02:54and even some of the members of the media.

02:57They're talking about process again,

02:59and they're not talking about the evildoers

03:01that were in our country

03:01because Joe Biden decided to just unleash the border,

03:05remove all the security barriers that were there

03:07because he didn't like the president that came before him.

03:10And you had 10 million people come into the country.

03:13We didn't vet these people.

03:14And some of these people right here

03:16were the ones that came into the country.

03:17Rapists, murderers, people that committed assault as well.

03:22And so you have this unifying message,

03:2580% of the country, I'm sorry,

03:27over 70% believe that we should have

03:29mass deportation of these people,

03:31yet they defend the actions of these criminals.

03:34So the way I understand it, a couple of days ago,

03:36I think it was Friday,

03:36where the president enacted

03:38the 1798-era Alien Enemies Act.

03:40And he said because of that, he was setting the table

03:42to get rid of TDA, MS-13,

03:45and all these criminal gangs

03:46that have come into our country.

03:48Next thing you know, we have lined up,

03:49I guess, 21 of the most wanted El Salvador MS-13 guys,

03:53250 alien enemy members of TDA.

03:57They were all decided,

03:58because I think Marco Rubio worked this out

04:00with the El Salvadorian president

04:02to open up their prisons.

04:03They cleaned up their country by putting them all in jail.

04:05And they said the ones who came into America

04:07will take them back.

04:08We pay them, but it's gonna save us money

04:10to put El Salvador, keep them in a complete lockup

04:13for at least a year

04:15because we know not have the confidence

04:17that Venezuelan will be able to hold them.

04:19So a judge decides, wait a second,

04:21I don't think you should be able to do the 1798 Act.

04:24Turn the plane around.

04:25No way. Turn the plane around.

04:26No, no, we're already out.

04:28And in turn, Congressman Brandon Gill of Texas

04:31has announced plans to impeach the judge

04:35for trying to assert himself in this process.

04:37And it's James Boasberg.

04:40He wanted a 14-day hold to examine this.

04:42Forget it.

04:43And okay, Democrats, go ahead.

04:45You go stick up for these guys.

04:45You run on this.

04:46You said that Barack Obama-

04:47Tell that to the nunnery family.

04:48This judge is a Barack Obama appointee.

04:51And Donald Trump said, too late.

04:53You decided this.

04:54They're already out of U.S. airspace.

04:56They're flying down to El Salvador now.

04:58The migrants are already out of U.S. airspace

05:00when that judge ordered the planes to return.

05:02And he said the order came too late.

05:0481 illegal aliens also arrested in Kentucky on ICE raids.

05:07So we've kicked out about 37,000 illegal aliens

05:11with criminal backgrounds

05:12and did some type of criminality once they were here.

05:17This is exactly what Trump's trying to do.

05:18I just ask the question, Brian, again,

05:21is this, you see these images of these violent criminals

05:25that were in our country.

05:27Do you guys want to be the party of these folks right here?

05:29Do you want to be the party of defending these folks?

05:33Something has to also be done.

05:34Brandon Gill, he's the youngest Republican in the House,

05:37represents my home state of Texas.

05:40He's offering these articles of impeachment.

05:42I don't think it's unwarranted.

05:43You got these federal judges that are acting like activists

05:48trying to make sweeping measures

05:50for something that the president has the authority to do.

05:54Right, so think about this.

05:55If you're a Lake and Riley's family

05:56and you find out the Democrats and this judge

05:58is saying turn the plane around, bring it back to America,

06:01you know how many crimes that they would have perpetrated

06:03had President Trump not won the election and led the charge

06:07but Tom Holman, the executor of these plans

06:11to get rid of these people right away.

06:13So I just think overall, it's a great message.

06:15This is what they keep telling me.

06:17Kenry Quayle was the first to say it.

06:19It is so valuable to show the world the video

06:23of people being turned around.

06:24Don't just tell me numbers, show people being turned around

06:27because it bridges languages.

06:29They go, it's not worth it to sell my mud hut

06:31and come here with all the money I have

06:34to get into America, I'm staying.

06:38So this morning, hundreds of illegal immigrants,

06:40some would allege gang ties, are no longer in the country.

06:44The Trump administration deported them

06:46to an El Salvador mega prison.

06:48It comes as an Obama-appointed judge

06:50temporarily blocks the president

06:52from using a wartime act for deportations.

06:55White House border czar Tom Holman joins us now.

06:59So Tom, this is a promise made, a promise kept,

07:02but it looks like a judge is trying to stop this.

07:06Why?

07:08I don't know why.

07:09I don't know why any judge would want terrorists

07:12to return to the United States.

07:13I mean, first of all, the video,

07:15what a beautiful thing to see, right?

07:16It's incredible.

07:17Look, the President Trump, by proclamation,

07:22invoked the authorities of the Alien Enemies Act,

07:25which he has a right to do, and it's a game changer.

07:29And we removed over 200 violent criminals

07:32from the United States, just not TDA, but also MS-13.

07:35The actions of President Trump made this country safer.

07:37Every criminal alien, every criminal public safety threat,

07:42and national security threat removed from this country

07:44makes this country safer.

07:45That's what the American voters voted for.

07:47That's their mandate that the President,

07:48the President's keeping his promise.

07:50This President, President Trump's a game changer.

07:52The Alien Enemies Act hasn't been used in a long time.

07:54And when I watched the video and I saw,

07:56and I was involved this week with this whole movement,

07:59this is an extraordinary thing

08:00what the President Trump is doing

08:01to keep his promise to American people

08:02to make this country safe again.

08:05And he's doing a fabulous job.

08:07So, Tom, I look at this judge.

08:10The flights were already in the air

08:12in international waters.

08:14How did the judge get involved?

08:16Did these immigrants that were in the country illegally,

08:21did their lawyers get involved

08:23and make a petition to the judge?

08:25How did this happen?

08:26How did the judge know about the flights being in the air?

08:30Again, information was leaked.

08:33I don't quite know how it got leaked.

08:36But there was a court, emergency court hearing on five,

08:39five people that were on schedule to be deported.

08:43The judge had a written order

08:45that said these five people can't be removed right now.

08:48It wasn't until this flight was already

08:49in international waters heading down to El Salvador

08:53that the judge made some comment about returning the flights.

08:57We're already in international waters.

08:59We're outside the borders of the United States.

09:01I'm the border czar.

09:02Once you're outside the border, it is what it is.

09:04But they're in international waters,

09:06already on the way south, close to the landing.

09:09You know what, we did what we had to do,

09:11remove terrorists, significant public safety threats

09:15from the United States.

09:16By the order of the proclamation

09:18by the President of the United States,

09:19we did the right thing.

09:21Tom, you say that it was five that were on there

09:24where this emergency hearing was coming.

09:26So why is the judge asking

09:27for the entire flight to be returned?

09:31Your guess is as good as mine, Lawrence.

09:32You know, you got some radical judge

09:34who makes the decision.

09:35This can't happen.

09:36That just defies logic.

09:38I mean, who in their right mind,

09:40whether you're a judge or not,

09:42wants known public safety,

09:43TVA, a recognized terrorist organization,

09:46sent here by the Maduro regime to create havoc,

09:50to unsettle the United States

09:52through the use of fentanyl to kill thousands of Americans,

09:54violence to American citizens,

09:56raping and murdering young women in this country.

09:59They are enemies of this country

10:01and President Trump treated them as enemies

10:03and we did exactly what we should have done.

10:06Again, President Trump

10:07is gonna make this country safe again.

10:09He's gonna do it one illegal alien at a time.

10:11And this weekend, we did 261 at a time.

10:15So Tom, what's next?

10:16Because I'm getting a little worried about the manpower.

10:19These guys are, they have to be tired.

10:21You got 30 guys on the stack

10:22going on different busts every single day.

10:25You're gonna run out of money.

10:27It doesn't look like you're getting support

10:28from the Democrats on this.

10:30You're going against the judges now.

10:32What's next?

10:34Another flight.

10:35Another flight every day.

10:37The teams are gonna be out there every day.

10:39Every day, the men and women of ICE

10:41are gonna be in the neighborhoods of this nation

10:43arresting criminal, illegal, alien,

10:46public safety threats and national security threats.

10:48Lawrence, you're not gonna stop us.

10:50We made a promise to the American people.

10:52The President Trump has made a promise to the American people

10:54we're gonna make this country safe again.

10:56I wake up every morning loving my job

10:59because I work for the greatest president

11:00in the history of my life

11:01and we're gonna make this country safe again.

11:03I'm proud to be a part of this administration.

11:05We're not stopping.

11:06I don't care what the judges think.

11:08I don't care what the left thinks.

11:09We're coming.

11:10Yeah.

11:11I just love seeing you going through these protesters

11:14just crunching on the apple as their liberal tears

11:17just flood the hallway.
