To be clear, the Alien Enemies Act—one of the infamous Alien & Sedition Acts signed by President John Adams—does not distinguish between “legal” & “illegal” #immigrants & foreign nationals, a distinction that did not exist at the time of passage. This means that any immigrant deemed an “enemy alien” by the #Trump admin could be subject to arrest & removal by the federal government.
