Hundreds of protesters gather outside JFK Airport. The ACLU is getting “multiple reports” that federal customs agents are siding with President Trump — and willfully ignoring a Brooklyn federal judge’s demand that travelers from seven Muslim countries not be deported from the nation’s airports. “The court’s order could not be clearer… they need to comply with the order,” Omar Jadwat, director of the ACLU’s Immigrants Rights project, told The Post late Saturday. “It’s enough to be a serious concern,” Jadwat said of the reports. Jadwat and other ACLU lawyers had earlier Saturday night won an emergency stay of Trump’s deportation order from Brooklyn Federal Judge Ann Donnelly.

The title is all screwed up. Customs officials are not Immigration officials. This author has her head up her ass. Customs has nothing to do with it. Also, deportation has nothing to do with the stay order. A person cannot be deported if he has not entered the U.S. The stay order refers to "removal" which applies to persons in the neutral zone at the port of entry who are denied admission. On that issue, the power of the President is essentially plenary — it is a matter of presidential discretion as supported by codified law 8 U.S.C. § 1182(f), the Immigration and Naturalization Act of 1952, and the U.S. Supreme Court in Fong Yue Ting v United States, 149 US 698 (1893). http://law.justia.com/codes/us/2013/title-8/chapter-12/subchapter-ii/part-ii/section-1182/ Inadmissible aliens - 8 U.S.C. § 1182 (2013) 8 U.S.C. § 1182(f) (2013) Whenever the President finds that the entry of any aliens or of any class of aliens into the United States would be detrimental to the interests of the United States, he may by proclamation, and for such period as he shall deem necessary, suspend the entry of all aliens or any class of aliens as immigrants or nonimmigrants, or impose on the entry of aliens any restrictions he may deem to be appropriate. Whenever the Attorney General finds that a commercial airline has failed to comply with regulations of the Attorney General relating to requirements of airlines for the detection of fraudulent documents used by passengers traveling to the United States (including the training of personnel in such detection), the Attorney General may suspend the entry of some or all aliens transported to the United States by such airline. http://www.bu.edu/lawlibrary/PDFs/research/portals/66stat163.pdf Immigration and Naturalization Act of 1952, Section 212(e), 66 Stat. 163, 188 (1952), P.L. 414 Whenever the President finds that the entry of any aliens or of any class of aliens into the United States would be detrimental to the interests of the United States, he may by proclamation, and for such period as he shall deem necessary, suspend the entry of all aliens or any class of aliens as immigrants or nonimmigrants, or impose on the entry of aliens any restrictions he may deem to be appropriate. https://supreme.justia.com/cases/federal/us/149/698/ Syllabus MR.

Possibly. But since you seem to know, in the 'multiple reports' the aclu referenced, what federal bureaucrats or agencies were involved?

(f) Suspension of entry or imposition of restrictions by President
Suspension of entry by President
Fong Yue Ting v United States, 149 US 698 (1893)
The right to exclude or to expel aliens, or any class of aliens, absolutely or upon certain conditions, in war or in peace, is an inherent and inalienable right of every sovereign nation.
It is an accepted maxim of international law that every sovereign nation has the power, as inherent in sovereignty, and essential to self-preservation, to forbid the entrance of foreigners within its dominions, or to admit them only in such cases and upon such conditions as it may see fit to prescribe.
