Rulings stall Trump policies, setting up Supreme Court fight

A federal court rejected the Trump administration's use of an 18th-century wartime law, known as the Alien Enemies Act, to deport Venezuelans accused of being gang members.

William Brangham discussed more with Georgetown law professor Steve Vladeck.
