A New York Times investigation by Julie Turkowicz questions the Trump administration's use of an 18th-century law to deport 238 Venezuelan men. The report claims only a small fraction have confirmed links to the "Tren de Aragua" gang, and that the "rubric" used to identify members—based on tattoos and dress—is flawed. Salvadoran President Nayib Bukele has reportedly asked for more proof before housing the men long-term.
