NEW. The #Trump admin files its notice w/ Judge #Boasberg, saying:
1. Everyone on the third plane had a final order of removal, so was not deported under the #AEA
2. The Proclamation was signed Friday but didn't go into effect until posted on the WH website
3. #ICE alleges there are 258 known #TdA members in the US

Lee then says they're going to argue that the government should be required to give anyone subject to the #AEA a hearing before finding that they're covered, & they'll be seeking that later.
#Boasberg orders #DOJ to say how many people are designated under AEA. DOJ says again they may refuse.

#Boasberg: "The inquiry here is 'have they obeyed my order?'”
Boasberg notes #DOJ says they're representing no one on the third flight was subject to the #AEA, so Lee asks that they submit a sworn declaration.
Lee notes the govt is distinguishing between the AEA proclamation & a claimed inherent presidential authority, & asks for more on that.

#Boasberg is now asking about a third flight identified by the #ACLU that they were asking about, which is I believe what the last bit was about. He gets the #DOJ to confirm no one on that plane was subject to the #AEA proclamation.

#DOJ says that the only thing they are authorized to say is that the two flights which took off after the written order were not relevant to this case (which I guess is saying they had no one subject to the #AlienEnemiesAct #AEA on board?). He then claims #NationalSecurity & diplomacy mean he won't answer further.
