Secretive Terrorist Removal Court Set for First Hearing

“The Trump administration is testing a secretive, never-before-used deportation court for alleged alien terrorists with a case concerning the Afghan mother of a convicted terrorist, with the Justice Department accusing the Texas-based woman of having ISIS sympathies,” CNN reports.

“The Alien Terrorist Removal Court will have its first ever hearing Thursday at 11 a.m.ET, court documents made public Wednesday night revealed. The Justice Department is asking the court — which has lain dormant since it was created 30 years ago — to deport Nazira Haji Zada, whose son was convicted last year for an ISIS-aligned terrorist plot targeting the 2024 Election, according to the filings.”
