Congress did though, explicitly. There is a

provision within the Immigration and Nationality Act that exempts noncitizens facing deportation under the government’s “foreign policy” provision.

That’s mistaking a structural problem for a personal one. Zeynep Tufekci has a great argument about why that wouldn’t work:
