A lawsuit filed by a legal firm closely connected to the infamous Soros network is attempting to halt President Trump’s well-intentioned plan to deport illegal alien gang members, effectively turning the courtroom into a safe space for those who should be heading for the exit. After Trump invoked the Alien Enemies Act to send criminal elements back to their home turf in El Salvador, the expected legal maneuvering began. The American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) and their allies at Democracy Forward quickly sprang into action, claiming that five illegal aliens currently held by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) shouldn’t be expelled from what they consider their “home” in the U.S.
This all came to light after the Trump administration and El Salvador struck a deal for deportations, allowing American authorities to transport gang members—who have serious ties to bloodthirsty organizations like MS-13—to be housed in a mega-prison. Just as Trump was loading nearly 300 gang members onto planes, a federal judge decided to put the brakes on those deportations. However, the gang members had already successfully touched down in El Salvador by the time the gavel fell. Talk about timing!
Democracy Forward, one of the firms helping to stymie Trump’s actions, has a history that reads like a who’s who of progressive causes. The organization’s financial affiliations with left-wing groups—financed by the infamous open-borders billionaire George Soros—would make anyone suspicious of their motives. The center of their funding is the Open Society Foundation, run by Soros’s son, Alexander, who seems to be carrying on his father’s mission to reshape America in a manner that pleases the progressive elite.

Among its connections, Democracy Forward counts organizations like the Center for American Progress and the National Immigration Law Center as partners in crime. In 2023 alone, the Open Society Foundation funneled millions into these groups, making it clear they have deep pockets and deeper allegiances to the leftist agenda. The irony of using the legal system to assist alleged criminals—especially those connected to terror-like gangs—was apparently lost on them. Their goal? Create roadblocks for anyone attempting to uphold the rule of law.
Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt made a swift move to clarify the administration’s position. According to her, the deportation flights happened before the judge’s order came down, essentially making any claims of non-compliance moot. She pointed out that the Supreme Court has historically made it clear that federal courts have no jurisdiction over the President’s decisions in matters of foreign affairs—something that sounds like common sense but seems to escape the grasp of the left.
The ongoing saga is a sobering reminder of just how far left-leaning organizations will go to protect illegal aliens, even those with a penchant for violent crime. Their fight in the courts highlights their unwillingness to acknowledge that the Trump administration’s measures are aimed at securing American borders and protecting citizens from individuals who don’t belong on U.S. soil. Instead of cooperating with lawful deportation processes, these groups are busy throwing as many legal hurdles as possible in front of President Trump’s determined campaign to cleanse the country of gang violence and disorder.
