涉嫌与”外国恐怖卡特尔”阿劳卡人组织(Tren de Aragua)有关的成员可能在2025年被驱逐后被带回美国,这可能将由纳税人买单。

多次与特朗普政府发生冲突的美国地方法院法官詹姆斯·博斯伯格周四下令,特朗普政府需协助将2025年被驱逐至萨尔瓦多一著名监狱(CECOT)的137名移民送回美国。

博斯伯格在裁决中规定,政府需支付这些移民返回美国的机票费用,这意味着纳税人可能要为此买单。

博斯伯格指出:”在这种情况下,为什么原告应该承担其返回的经济成本,目前尚不清楚。”他还表示:”如果政府在最初驱逐他们之前就给予原告宪法权利,这种情况根本不会发生。”

这一裁决是近一年来一系列法律纠纷的一部分。2025年3月,博斯伯格曾试图根据《外籍敌人法案》阻止特朗普政府将移民驱逐至萨尔瓦多。

最高法院最终在2025年4月允许特朗普政府继续使用《外籍敌人法案》进行驱逐,但要求被拘留者收到通知并获得质疑指控的机会。

此后,博斯伯格一直在萨尔瓦多与这些人通过法律途径周旋,并在2025年12月做出裁决,认为特朗普政府剥夺了他们的正当法律程序。

博斯伯格指出,这些非公民”抵达美国后将被拘留”,目前尚不清楚有多少人会接受返回美国的提议。

与博斯伯格的裁决类似,另一位联邦法官本月也下令特朗普政府支付三个移民家庭的返回费用。该法官裁定,根据2023年的人道主义假释协议,美国移民局(ICE)非法驱逐了这些家庭。

国土安全部助理部长特里西亚·麦克劳克林周四在回应这一裁决时告诉福克斯新闻数字网,在萨尔瓦多的非法移民是在合法的法律授权下被驱逐的,随后她批评了博斯伯格。

麦克劳克林对福克斯新闻数字网表示:”情况没有改变;除了非法滞留美国外,这些外国人是被总统指定为外籍敌人的外国恐怖分子。”

“他们是根据合法的法律授权被驱逐的。这个案子不再关乎事实或法律,而是关乎博斯伯格法官阻止特朗普总统执行美国人民意愿的’十字军东征’。在这个案子中,他一次又一次地被上诉法院驳回。”

由于一系列与特朗普时代政策相关的裁决,博斯伯格成为共和党人的主要批评目标,其中包括特朗普政府在2026年1月支持对该法官和其他”叛逆”法官进行潜在的司法弹劾。

被驱逐至萨尔瓦多的移民是根据《外籍敌人法案》被驱逐的,该法案是1798年的战时移民法,特朗普政府援引该法案驱逐与犯罪组织(如阿劳卡人组织TdA)有关联的暴力团伙成员。

2025年2月,特朗普政府国务院将TdA和MS-13列为外国恐怖组织。

政府称,被驱逐至萨尔瓦多这所臭名昭著的安全监狱的人是”暴力野兽”和”对美国安全构成威胁的恐怖分子”。

2025年5月,《得克萨斯论坛报》报道称,此前对238名被驱逐至萨尔瓦多的移民的分析显示,6人在美国面临谋杀未遂、袭击、持械抢劫、持枪或家庭暴力指控。

该媒体还指出,另有32名被驱逐者在美国被判有罪,其中许多是轻罪。

国土安全部表示,媒体所谓的”非罪犯”被驱逐者实际上是”恐怖分子、侵犯人权者、帮派成员等——他们只是在美国没有犯罪记录”。

James Boasberg ruled Trump administration must pay airfare for 137 migrants deported to El Salvador prison in 2025 if they wish to return

Alleged members of “foreign terrorist cartel” Tren de Aragua may be brought back to the U.S. after their deportations in 2025, and it could come at taxpayers’ expense.

U.S. District Judge James Boasberg, who has repeatedly butted heads with the Trump administration, ordered the Trump administration Thursday to facilitate the return of 137 migrants deported to a notorious prison in El Salvador, CECOT, in 2025.

Boasberg stipulated in his ruling that the government pay for the migrants’ airfare back to the U.S., meaning taxpayers are likely footing the bill.

Boasberg argued that it’s “unclear why Plaintiffs should bear the financial cost of their return in such an instance,” noting that “this situation would never have arisen had the Government simply afforded Plaintiffs their constitutional rights before initially deporting them.”

The ruling comes as part of a nearly year-long saga during which the federal judge attempted to halt the Trump administration’s deportation of migrants to El Salvador under the Alien Enemies Act in March 2025.

The Supreme Court ultimately allowed the Trump administration to continue using the Alien Enemies Act to carry out deportations in April but ordered that detainees receive notice and an opportunity to challenge allegations.

Boasberg has since been wading through legal avenues with the men in El Salvador, issuing a ruling in December that the Trump administration denied them due process.

It is unclear how many of the men will actually take the offer and return to the U.S., with Boasberg noting that the noncitizens “would be detained upon arrival” back to the U.S.

Similar to Boasberg’s ruling, another federal judge this month ordered the Trump administration to pay for the return of three migrant families the judge ruled ICE unlawfully deported by a 2023 humanitarian parole settlement.

DHS Assistant Secretary Tricia McLaughlin told Fox News Digital Thursday in response to the ruling that the illegal aliens in El Salvador were removed under proper legal authority, before taking a shot as Boasberg.

“Nothing has changed; in addition to being in our country illegally, these aliens are foreign terrorists designated as alien enemies by the president,” McLaughlin told Fox News Digital.

“They were removed under the proper legal authorities. This case is no longer about the facts or law but about Judge Boasberg’s crusade to stop President Trump from doing the will of the American People. He has been shut down by appellate courts again and again on this case.”

Boasberg has become a prime target for Republicans over a string of rulings tied to Trump-era policies, including the Trump administration backing a potential judicial impeachment of the judge and other “rogue” judges in January.

The migrants in El Salvador were removed under The Alien Enemies Act, which is a 1798 wartime immigration law the Trump administration invoked to deport violent gang members with alleged ties to criminal organizations, such as Tren de Aragua (TdA).

TdA, as well as MS-13, were designated as foreign terrorist organizations by the Trump administration’s State Department in February 2025.

The administration has described those deported to the notoriously secure prison in El Salvador as “violent savages” and terrorists who pose a threat to U.S. security.

A previous analysis of 238 migrants deported to El Salvador found six faced attempted murder, assault, armed robbery, gun possession or domestic battery charges in the U.S., the Texas Tribune reported in May 2025.

Thirty-two other deportees had been convicted in the U.S. of crimes, many of which were nonviolent, according to the outlet.

DHS has said deportees labeled “‘non-criminals” by the media are “terrorists, human rights abusers, gang members and more — they just don’t have a rap sheet in the U.S.”
