The White House has dug in on its refusal to return a man who US officials have acknowledged was wrongly deported last month from Maryland to an El Salvador mega-prison.
Press secretary Karoline Leavitt doubled down on accusations that Salvadoran national Kilmar Ábrego García was a member of the MS-13 gang, which his lawyer denies.
Leavitt also accused the 29-year-old of domestic violence, citing records showing his US citizen wife once filed a protective order against him.
A Maryland judge has ordered President Donald Trump’s administration to bring Mr Ábrego García back to the US. But El Salvador President Nayib Bukele said on a visit to the White House this week that he did not “have the power” to return him.
Daily reminder that he wasn’t deported, because deportation is a process and they skipped the process and sent him straight to a death camp
Daily reminder that the USA is literally falling to a dictatorship no different than any of the other dictator-led nations around the world like Chad, Sudan, North Korea, Burma, Iran, Pakistan, Laos and so many others.
What? You can’t relate because they’re not white? Get it together people, skin color has been a distraction since the dawn of human migration, if you’re still compartmentalizing nations and people’s by how they look, you’re going to all lose all your happy comforts and shiny toys.
Daily reminder that the admin is in its second possible violation of a court order, with the first one being already confirmed as contempt by judge Boasberg and in which he’s seeking criminal contempt.
It’s his third month in office.
a forceful eviction.
Daily reminder that’s how deportations have worked in the USA for over a decade.
If a domestic violence allegation is all it takes to get send away, then 40% of all police officers in this country need to GTFO on that alone.
(Not saying domestic violence is good, obviously. Just using their logic here.)
Kilmar Ábrego García: Deported without due process will never live
back in US, says White HouseThat’s the correct title.
Unfortunately, the guy is -probably- dead.
It’s not that they won’t bring him back, it’s that they can’t bring him back.
tRUMP directly killed this guy with his policies. What will be done about it? Tell me, what will be done…The US drone strikes schools on the regular, mercing innocent people is just a function of our sadistic govt
Return his body then. Throw daylight on it.
The term normally shortened to “Habeus Corpus” has a full meaning “habeas corpus ad subjiciendum”, meaning “You (shall) have the body to be subjected to (examination)”
In most cases it’s referring to a person, not a corpse. But, in this case…

Hey, you’re a gang member with a criminal history in El Salvador, let’s get you deported.
What’s that, you say you’re not one?
Prove it without due process.
What’s that, you couldn’t do that? Too bad, the administration doesn’t care and you’re now in a foreign prison (and maybe dead)
Do you see why due process is important?
All of those facts are irrelevant and distractions though. Assuming that is the case then he should have been tried according to the rules of this country. The point in concentrating on this isn’t about the individual, it’s about the implication and precedent that is being set for everyone in the future.
Is the left wing media in the room with you right now? No? Do you know why?
Because there is no left-wing media in the US. There are varying degrees of capitalist media corps and their apologists with a smattering of actual journalists trying to get their stories out in between but mainly being drowned out.
Cut it out.
I don’t care about him personally. I care about how they did this. That is the crux of the issue.
Zero evidence for any of that shit you said.
I’d love to be proven wrong, but you won’t deliver.
Where are you getting this information?
From Fox News, because it’s patently bullshit. Garcia was never proven to be a gang member and the only connection was coerced testimony from a confidential informant who was facing deportation if they didn’t act as an informant, who gave the information to a detective who has since been fired from his position for multiple abuses of power and for lying under oath. Garcia was arrested for being brown outside of a home depot, not for any actual crime.
Every single attempt that has been made to force the US DOJ to produce proof of his gang membership has been denied, because it’s all a lie. FugginJerk just drank the kool-aid while telling other people not to drink the kool-aid.
But even that is beside the point – even if it wasn’t bullshit, he’s still owed due process as part of the Constitution and Bill of Rights.

He was a criminal in El Salvador.
As far as being a criminal in El Salvador, it’s alleged, not proven…
So was he a criminal or not in El Salvador? Because to me it sounds like you just lied and are now trying to move the goalposts. Due process is the issue here, if you can’t understand that then don’t be surprised when people you know are wisked away to a prision in a foreign country.
So why not have a trial? Or follow the current established extradition process?
That’s a lot of typing to say you don’t give a fuck about the constitution. Why don’t you just say you don’t believe the gov’t should be bound by the constitution?
You say it’s easy to find, yet I’m not finding anything. Can you point to a specific source?
Why do you beat your wife?
Why do you beat your kids?
Aren’t assumptions fun?
What do you say to a kid with two black eyes? Nothing. You’ve already told them twice… Why don’t women need drivers licenses? There are no roads between the bedroom and the kitchen. Get a life, dude. 🙄 Since you want to be a smart ass… My wife has never asked for a restraining order, called the cops on me, or provided pictures of cuts and bruises to the police because I beat the shit out of her. You know why? Because I’m not a violent misogynistic piece of shit. Unlike, you know… Kilmar Garcia.
Why not deport him using the actual process if he’s as bad as you say? Why do they have to wipe their ass with the Constitution to do it?
I would trade you for him
Oh yeah. Very dead. Although my guess is he got murdered in the prison within a couple days or even hours. Probably the moment they went from “administration error” to “that guy was obviously in a gang”.
Worst case scenario is the ‘prison’ is nothing but a death camp and they’re killing everybody.
I saw! Glad to be proven wrong, but now it’s even more questionable why they’d be so defiant when the dude seems to not even be jailed.
Yeah it’s a relief. On your point though I would be surprised if they literally thought he was dead up until that point
Excuse me, I believe you’ve dropped your modernized quality precision firearm. here you go:
His lawyers can try to split hairs about “facilitate” vs. “effectuate” but saying he will never come back to the US after being ordered to try to get him back to the US seems like the most obvious violation possible of a 9 - 0 supreme court decision. If republicans were honest, trump could be removed from office by Saturday morning. What would there be to even investigate?
It’s such a wonderful coincidence that they managed to pick up and deport, what is reportedly, the most dangerous man in America by accident. These guys are really batting for a thousand here.
Those change.org petitions always go right into the round filing cabinet. I’ve signed so many of them, and not once have I ever seen one come into fruition.
“They thank you for self-identifying and putting your name on a list.”
PS: self-identifying is some orwellian shit.
Of course not - the U.S. is run by a dictator who is being run by a foreign dictator.
Republicans all do what putin tells them to do - else no more money.
Melt the ICE.
Heat will be applied to ice
Jesus, can we at least get some proof of life for this guy?!?! Like at least?!

Can we do an exchange at least? We’ll give them Lord Trump.
None of these men will ever be heard from again. CECOT brags about how the only way out is in a coffin.
It’s only a matter of time before US born citizens are extraordinarily renditioned to CECOT.
