ACLU files lawsuit against Trump admin for arrest of MS-13 teens

The American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) is standing up in defense of the unfortunate “immigrant teenagers” who have been rounded up and arrested by ICE recently, over their suspected links to the MS-13 gang.

The ACLU announced Friday they have filed a lawsuit on behalf of the “immigrant children and their families,” against Attorney General Jeff Sessions, Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), and the Department of Health and Human Services’ Office of Refugee Resettlement (ORR).

In a July 28 speech President Trump gave on Long Island, he vowed to crack down on the violent MS-13 gang, vowing that “[w]e’re going to destroy” the violent MS-13 gang and send a clear message to criminal aliens that law enforcement officials are hunting them down and seeking to prosecute, jail, and deport them.”

Indeed, just the day before, the Department of Justice announced that literally hundreds of MS-13 gang members had been charged and arrested.
