The 69-year-old co-host raised these concerns in light of the Trump administration's decision to deport hundreds of alleged members of the Tren de Aragua (TdA) gang to El Salvador, despite a federal judge's temporary injunction against such actions. The administration, however, maintains that these deportations were executed in accordance with existing policies.
As reported by Newsweek, Goldberg remarked during the "Hot Topics" segment, "You just gotta keep your eyes open, y'all. Because if they can just come up and take somebody because they've made a decision that you're supposed to be that person, any one of us could find ourselves being deported to some country when we've never been there." Her co-host, Ana Navarro, responded with a cautionary, "Don't give them any ideas, girl."

Goldberg further elaborated on her concerns, questioning the administration's access to personal information. "Listen, you know, it is very clear to me that if we don't continue to say we want—listen, I understand you want to clean out all the old, some bad stuff. I get it, but why do you now have access to my personal information?" she asked. "I get what the things you are trying to do, I don't understand why you're taking my stuff. My personal—not mine personally, but each and every one of you! And your Constitutional right to free speech."

The discussion also touched on the transparency of the deportation process. Co-host Sara Haines echoed Goldberg's sentiments, emphasizing the need for clarity. "I feel the same way you do, Whoopi. It's the transparency," Haines stated. "Because if they were to release who these people were, what they did, and that it was confirmed they are part of this gang, I think anyone would get on board. It's the fact that they keep hiding it and making mistakes that makes me wary."

In response to the controversy, White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt defended the administration's actions, asserting that they did not defy U.S. District Judge James Boasberg's order. "The order, which had no lawful basis, was issued after terrorist TdA aliens had already been removed from U.S. territory," she wrote on X. Leavitt further argued that federal courts generally lack jurisdiction over the President's conduct of foreign affairs and his authority to remove foreign alien terrorists from U.S. soil.

When questioned by reporters about the potential violation of a court order, President Trump deflected, stating, "I don't know. You have to speak to the lawyers about that," while emphasizing, "I can tell you this. These were bad people."
The debate over the administration's immigration policies continues to stir emotions, with concerns about transparency and the protection of individual rights at the forefront. As the conversation unfolds, the balance between national security and personal freedoms remains a critical issue for many Americans.
