President Donald Trump told reporters he did not sign the controversial proclamation invoking the Alien Enemies Act to quickly deport migrants his administration says are violent gang members from Venezuela. Now many are wondering what did happen.
If Trump didn’t sign the Alien Enemies Act proclamation, who — or what — did?
