The Overseas Enemy Act of 1798, upon which this presidential order is predicated, is an outdated regulation that not solely violates elementary and present legal guidelines of the US of America but in addition breaches worldwide authorized frameworks concerning human rights.
Its tried utility constitutes against the law in opposition to humanity.
The Venezuelan migrant who crossed our borders looking for life alternate options did so for financial causes, penalties of the hardships inflicted upon our individuals by the prison blockade on our economic system, imposed by Western governments in opposition to Venezuelan society to additional their regime change agenda.
The overwhelming majority of those migrants are hardworking, dignified, and sincere women and men; they aren’t terrorists, criminals, nor “overseas enemies.” They’re victims.
