In one filing last night, an ICE official said that the government — quote — "carefully vetted" the migrants to ensure that they were in fact members of the Tren de Aragua gang, the Venezuelan gang, but the ICE official also said that many of these Venezuelan nationals deported do not have criminal records and that the government lacks — quote — "specific information' about a number of these cases.

I spoke to the ACLU's Lee Gelernt, who is a lead attorney in this case. And he said that, on the merits, they're making two arguments, which is that the president cannot use a wartime authority in peacetime against a gang and also that they have to give due process to these migrants, so they can dispute the allegations that they are gang members.
