Trump's deportation flights and use of the Alien Enemies Act: Bias Breakdown

How did the same set of deportation flights produce such drastically different headlines? In this episode, we break down the legal battle over the Trump administration’s use of the Alien Enemies Act—and the media’s role in shaping the narrative surrounding a judge’s ruling to halt the deportations. Left-leaning outlets have framed the flights as a violation of judicial authority, while right-leaning sources argue that the administration acted within its rights and complied with the court order. In Episode 14 of Bias Breakdown, we walk through the timeline of the flights, the judge’s ruling, and how different media sources have reported on the case, inserting their own political spin. We analyze the facts—and the narratives—so you can form your own opinion on this ongoing legal battle.
