President Donald Trump is set to use a wartime law to deport immigrants alleged to be gang members without court hearings.

The Alien Enemies Act could allow Trump to rapidly deport migrants deemed part of an “invasion or predatory incursion” Opponents argue the law cannot be used simply to step up immigration enforcement outside of an actual conflict.

The move would almost certainly face legal challenges but could supercharge his mass deportation push.

The more deliberate strategy is a departure from his first term, when he blocked travelers from majority- Muslim countries and caused chaos in airports worldwide.

A former Homeland Security official said the administration was wise not to immediately implement the most far-reaching enforcement authorities.

He said it could make them more likely to prevail before the conservative-leaning Supreme Court .
