Summary

The Trump administration is continuing to seemingly do everything it can to avoid securing the safe return of Kilmar Abrego Garcia, wrongly deported to El Salvador last month due to an “administrative error.”

A senior State Department official signed a declaration swearing Abrego Garcia is “detained pursuant to the sovereign, domestic authority of El Salvador.”

Trump posted a message that confirms the U.S. is essentially wiping its hands of anyone deported: “These barbarians are now in the sole custody of El Salvador…and their future is up to President B and his Government.”

The Supreme Court ruled unanimously that the Trump administration must take steps to facilitate Abrego Garcia’s return.

    Nope. The judge said “there are no weekends in my court. Irreparable harm is being done, and until you bring the man back every day you will come here and tell the American people what actions you have taken”

      Which they failed to do yesterday.

      The judge demanded daily status updates on 3 questions. The filing yesterday only responded to question #1*, and completely ignored #2 and 3.

      *Additionally, the response to #1 only relayed publicly available information, when the judge specifically ordered an affidavit from someone with personal knowledge of the matter.

        I hope the justice enacts contempt of court, and deputizes people to make the arrests. Preferably, minorities who have a stake in seeing justice done.
