A: Hey, did you catch up on the news lately?
B: Nah, what's new?
A: Well, it looks like President Trump's administration is making some big moves on immigration! Seems they sent at least two people from Myanmar and Vietnam to South Sudan.
B: Whoa, that sounds serious... Isn't South Sudan a pretty unstable place?
A: Yeah, that's what I heard. There was even a judge in Massachusetts who said the administration can't send foreigners to any country other than their own without proper notice and letting them voice concerns.
B: Wow, that's tough... So what happened after that?
A: Well, the judge made the administration keep those migrants on the deportation flight to South Sudan. He even said officials involved could face criminal charges if they don't follow his orders.
B: That sounds really intense! And it's not safe in South Sudan, right? They asked Americans not to travel there because of armed clashes.
A: Exactly! And get this... They're using an old wartime law called the Alien Enemies Act to deport these people without going through normal court procedures.
B: Whoa, that's crazy! So where are they sending most of the deportees?
A: Mostly El Salvador. It looks like they agreed to house them in prisons.
B: Man, immigration sure is a hot topic these days... Thanks for filling me in, bud!

US media are reporting that President Donald Trump's administration has deported at least two immigrants to South Sudan as part of its policy of cracking down on illegal immigration. Media reports say the measure could go against a court decision forbidding deportations of foreign nationals to third countries where they could face danger.
The political news website Politico on Tuesday quoted lawyers as saying that two men from Myanmar and Vietnam had been sent to the politically unstable African country.
In April, a judge at the federal district court in Massachusetts ordered the Trump administration not to send foreign nationals to countries other than their own without notice and a chance to raise concerns.
On Tuesday, the judge ordered the Trump administration to maintain custody of the migrants on the deportation flight to South Sudan. He warned that officials involved in the deportations could be held in criminal contempt.
In March, the US State Department called on Americans not to travel to South Sudan, where armed clashes are continuing.
The Trump administration has deported immigrants by invoking the wartime Alien Enemies Act that allows the president to detain or deport the citizens of an enemy nation without undergoing normal court procedures.
A large number of deportees have been sent to El Salvador which has agreed to house them in jails.
