The US government is preparing to deport legal permanent residents with alleged ties to Haitian gangs. This move comes after years of escalating gang violence in Haiti, which has resulted in thousands of deaths. The Trump administration had previously designated one of the dominant Haitian gangs as a Foreign Terrorist Organization. The deportations highlight the US government's stance on national security and its approach to immigration enforcement concerning individuals associated with criminal organizations abroad. The legal basis for these deportations and the criteria used to determine gang affiliation are likely to face scrutiny.
