Border Emperor Tom Homan turned the table to reporters after being questioned about the alien enemy laws used by the Trump administration.
To deal with dangerous immigration, President Donald Trump invoked the alien enemy law of 1798. This law was invoked three times in 1812, during the wars of World War I and the Second World War.
As a result, all Venezuelan citizens over the age of 14, who are members of the Venezuelan gang, and Tren de Aragua (TDA), an unnaturalized or legal permanent resident in the United States, could be arrested, restrained, protected and removed as “an alien enemy,” according to Trump's intrusion.
Border Emperor Tom Homan defends the Trump administration's choice to summon alien enemy laws.
Tom Homan warns that major sanctuaries will “get exactly what they don't want.”
“What do you say to anyone who insists on avoiding a legitimate process by claiming you are using 200-year-old law?” a reporter asked Homan on Monday.
“Old law?” asked Homan. “We're not as old as the Constitution. We're still paying attention to that, right?”
Homan then shook his head and left the reporter's jokes.

The Alien Enemy Act of 1798 was created 227 years ago, but the US Constitution was ratified in 1788 about 10 years ago.
Rep. Wesley Hunt of R-Texas noted that the exchange spoke volume and cheered Homan for the conflict.
“It's ironic that the left screams about the Constitution…until we start to implement it,” he wrote.
