A U.S. appeals court ordered the Trump administration this week to comply with a lower court judge's order to return a 20-year-old Venezuelan migrant deported from the U.S. to El Salvador in March, marking another setback in legal battles over its use of the Alien Enemies Act.The 21 decision from the 4th Circuit leaves in place U.S. District Judge Stephanie Gallaghers earlier ruling that Daniel Lozano-Camargo, previously identified in court documents as "Cristian," must be allowed back into the country.Gallagher, a Trump appointee, ruled that Lozano-Camargo's removal violated an agreement that the Department of Homeland Security struck with a group of other migrants who entered the U.S. illegally as children and later sought asylum. DHS agreed not to deport these individuals, who later sought asylum in the U.S. until their cases could be fully adjudicated in court.The decision paves the way for the Trump administration to appeal the case to the Supreme Court. In the interim, Gallagher has said she will amend her ruling to set a formal timeline for the government to return the 20-year-old migrant to the U.S.FEDERAL JUDGE ORDERS RETURN OF DEPORTED MIGRANT TO US, REJECTING TRUMP REQUESTThe Justice Department appealed the case to the 4th Circuit earlier this month.The majority opinion, published Monday night, rejected its request, stressing what judges said was their role in ensuring the courts have the ability to prevent any attempted "degradation of effective judicial review" by the executive branch."As is becoming far too common, we are confronted again with the efforts of the Executive Branch to set aside the rule of law in pursuit of its goals," Judge DeAndrea Gist Benjamin said, writing for the majority. "It is the duty of courts to stand as a bulwark against the political tides that seek to override constitutional protections and fundamental principles of law, even in the name of noble ends like public safety.""The Governments breach denied Cristian the benefit of the bargain and the process he was due," Gregory added.JUDGE ON WARPATH PRESSES TRUMP DOJ ON ABREGO GARCIA DEPORTATION, ANSWERS LEAVE COURTROOM IN STUNNED SILENCEGallagher ruled in April that the government violated a 2024 settlement between DHS and a group of young asylum seekers, including Lozano-Camargo. Under that deal, DHS agreed not to deport the migrants, all of whom entered the U.S. as unaccompanied children, until their cases were fully heard in court.Last month, Gallagher said Lozano-Camargos deportation was a "breach of contract" since his asylum case had not yet been heard and ordered the U.S. government to arrange for his release. Lawyers for the Trump administration argued Lozano-Camargo was eligible for removal under the Alien Enemies Act, citing his arrest and conviction on cocaine possession charges as recently as January. They also claimed, without evidence, he was a member of a "violent terrorist gang."IDENTITY OF SECOND DEPORTED MAN WHO JUDGE WANTS RETURNED TO US REVEALED AS TRUMP ADMIN FIGHTS ORDERGallagher reiterated her previous decision this month, emphasizing it has nothing to do with the strength of his asylum request in a nod to two apparent low-level drug offenses. Rather, she stressed, it was a matter of due process.The government is "measuring utility using the wrong yardstick" in this case, she told the administration, adding it is not a case of whether Lozano-Camargo will eventually receive asylum, but the process afforded to him in the interim.Process, she said, is important for various reasons, noting that even when outcomes in certain criminal cases or trials seem obvious, individuals are still entitled to a trial under U.S. law."We dont skip to the end and say, We all know how this is going to end, so well just skip that part,'" she said.This was also upheld by the judges of the appellate court."The Government's breach denied Cristian the benefit of the bargain and the process he was due," Benjamin said, writing for the majority.CLICK HERE TO GET THE FOX NEWS APPThe job of the courts is to "say what the law is," she said. "The task is delicate but cannot be shirked."It is unclear whether the Trump administration will appeal the case to the Supreme Court.

Rep. Nancy Mace, R-S.C., introduced a House resolution Wednesday to expel Democratic New Jersey Rep. LaMonica McIver, who the day prior was served with federal charges for assaulting law enforcement officers earlier this month while protesting at a federal immigrant detention center."On May 9th, McIver didn't just break the law, she attacked the very people who defend it," Mace said in a press release announcing the new House Resolution. "Attacking Homeland Security and ICE agents isn't just disgraceful, it's assault. If any other American did what she did, they'd be in handcuffs. McIver thinks being a Member of Congress puts her above the law. It doesn't. She should be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law."The Department of Justice announced federal charges against McIver on Monday, accusing her of allegedly "assaulting, impeding and interfering with law enforcement" earlier this month at a Newark-area immigrant detention facility known as Delaney Hall. McIver was there with two other members of Congress to conduct what they claimed were their congressionally mandated oversight duties, as well as the Mayor of Newark, New Jersey, Ras Baraka, who was subsequently arrested following the incident but later had his charges dropped.According to the press release, Mace's resolution notes that the House of Representatives already has precedent for expelling members of Congress who have been charged with serious criminal offenses.

Alan Alda is taking on his illness with a smile.In 2015, the "M*A*S*H" star was diagnosed with Parkinsons disease. He also has face blindness, or prosopagnosia, which makes it difficult for him to recognize people.The 89-year-old told People magazine on Wednesday that managing his Parkinsons has "gone from a part-time job to almost a full-time job keeping track of all these little solutions."M.A.S.H STAR LORETTA SWIT SAYS SHE CONTINUES TO SUPPORT VETERANS IN OUR COUNTRY: THEYRE OUR HEROES"But it keeps me always looking for the funny side," the actor shared."Almost every day Im finding a new way to do something," the father of three told the outlet. "Its a little like a game. Ive found whatever the little problem is, if I keep at it, I can eventually solve it, and then I feel like a million bucks. Its a way to have a good time under poor circumstances."Acting continues to keep Alda busy. Most recently, he made a cameo appearance in Tina Feys Netflix series adaptation of his 1981 film, "The Four Seasons." It has already been renewed for a second season.Aldas character in Feys series is known for offering advice from his wife. Its no different from real life, he said. Alda has been married to his spouse, Arlene, for 68 years."She always says, The secret to marriage is a short memory," Alda told the outlet. "We both try to practice being there when were there: listening, answering, taking an interest. You can get used to somebody, no matter who it is. Ive always thought if the Pope and Mother Teresa were a couple, after a few years, theyd have to work it out."According to the outlet, Alda met Arlene, 92, during their college days in 1956 at a mutual friends party in New York City. When a rum cake fell onto the floor, they were the only two guests who didnt hesitate to eat it.CLICK HERE TO SIGN UP FOR THE ENTERTAINMENT NEWSLETTERIt was love at first sight."[I knew she was the one] when we ate the cake off the floor," said Alda. "There's something about flirting over food, and that she laughed at my jokes meant a lot. We still laugh at each other's jokes a lot, and she's getting funnier every day."And as Alda navigates his Parkinsons, Arlene continues to be by his side.WATCH: MIKE FARRELL TALKS ABOUT HIS FRIENDSHIP WITH ALAN ALDA"I dont have dexterity with my fingers the way I used to, so sometimes she has to tear a package open for me," Alda explained. "Shes so good-natured about it. Im always saying, Thank you. I dont get proud. I'm glad that I can do something. Proud seems like a waste of time."Back in 2019, Alda recalled to Fox News Digital what it was like filming the final episode of "M*A*S*H," titled "Goodbye, Farewell and Amen," which he also directed. TheWashington Post reported more than 106 million viewers watched the series finale. The outlet also shared that the episode was so highly anticipated that 30-second advertising slots sold for $50,000, more than some slots for the 1983 Super Bowl.In addition to this, theUnited Press International reported that an estimated one million viewers in New York City alone used the toilet after the show ended, pouring 6.7 million gallons of water through the citys sewers.Alda said the pressure was on to deliver a final goodbye that fans wouldn't forget."I wanted to end it in a way that showed that everybody was going home with some kind of wound from the war," said Alda. "That the war didnt leave anybody the way they were when they started. Sometimes it was physical wounds, and sometimes it was emotional. We wanted to be authentic about that and genuine.""I also wanted to give everybody a goodbye, including the extras," Alda continued. "You know, the audience got to know the extras on the show. So I gave them all speeches about what they were all going to do when they got home. Which didnt always go well with them because they werent used to acting, they were all used to being in the background."LIKE WHAT YOURE READING? CLICK HERE FOR MORE ENTERTAINMENT NEWSThe star admitted he was faced with even bigger obstacles."The other challenge in directing the final episode was the outdoor location that we used in the mountains of Malibu," said Alda."It caught fire on a Friday night or Saturday morning, and the entire set burned to the ground. I still had a lot of scenes to shoot there. So I spent the weekend rewriting the script and wrote a fire into it. And the rest of the show took place in another location. But thats one of the fun things that happen when youre acting. You have everything prepared. Everything is all set up to go, and then at the last minute, you have to improvise, which is exciting."He also told Fox News Digital that his wifes advice on keeping a short memory to ensure a long marriage "works.""Two people cant live together unless they occasionally have a difference of opinion or a different way of doing things," he said. "And as youre working that out, no matter how strongly you feel, I think its good to remember that you love this person. Its easy to forget when you get upset about something. And it shortens up the conversation a lot."

The Washington Post editorial board called for more oversight of the Oval Office on Wednesday to ensure a cover-up of the president's health doesnt happen again following revelations in a bombshell book alleging the White House hid former President Joe Bidens decline from the public."It now seems that, for a considerable time, Biden might have lacked the stamina and cognitive capacity the job demands and that his family and closest aides concealed this from the public," the papers editorial board wrote."Their apparent decision to put personal loyalties ahead of their duty to the country must be reckoned with. A legal mechanism should be considered to ensure that this doesnt happen again," the board proposed.The former president's health is once again in the headlines after CNN anchor Jake Tapper and Axios correspondent Alex Thompson's new book, "Original Sin: President Biden's Decline, Its Cover-Up, and His Disastrous Choice to Run Again," was released on Tuesday.CBS NEWS REPORTER SAYS WSJ'S 'COURAGEOUS' 2024 REPORT ON BIDEN'S DECLINE SHOULD HAVE WON THE PULITZERThe book alleges that Bidens inner circle concealed his cognitive decline for years and was released just days after news broke that Biden had been diagnosed with advanced prostate cancer.The Post relayed accounts from Tapper and Thompson's book detailing how Biden was showing issues with his memory as early as the 2020 campaign, with one Democrat who was involved in his campaign concluding that he was unfit for office.From at least 2022, Biden was forgetting the names of his top aides and appearing incoherent at times, according to the book.Biden's staff also reportedly adjusted his schedule to when he was at his sharpest because of these issues.WALL STREET JOURNAL CALLS OUT TAPPER FOR SNEERING AT PAPER'S STORY ABOUT BIDEN'S DECLINE"The country was fortunate not to have experienced a late-night crisis that he would have had trouble handling. It would be folly to count on such luck in the future," the board wrote."Can steps be taken to ensure that voters remain aware of their leaders frailties? This is a question for Congress: How should the government respond when a president seems to be operating with diminished faculties?" the editors asked.The Post board proposed that Congress be empowered to "keep tabs on the presidents cognitive health and to act when necessary.""Ideally, Congress would create a sober, bipartisan commission to investigate ways to maintain transparency about the presidents health, mental and physical. Perhaps some objective cognitive testing should be required, in addition to a physical examination, with the results made public annually," the board suggested.RADIO HOST CHARLAMAGNE ACCUSES CNN, JAKE TAPPER OF BEING 'COMPLICIT' IN BIDEN COVER-UPThe editorial comes as questions swirl around Bidens cancer diagnosis and why the disease was not caught earlier.On Monday, former Biden medical advisor Dr. Ezekiel Emanuel, an oncologist, said that the former president likely had cancer since the beginning of his presidential term, if not longer.CLICK HERE TO GET THE FOX NEWS APP"He did not develop it in the last 100 to 200 days," Emanuel told MSNBC's "Morning Joe" co-host Joe Scarborough on Monday. "I don't think there's any disagreement about that."
