“Powerful Rebuke” By Judges Means We Have To Keep Abrego Garcia

Kilmar Abrego Garcia should have been prevented from entering the United States. He entered illegally in 2011 an was arrested the first time (as far as we know) in 2019. In a rational country, he would have been deported to the first country that would take him forthwith. We are not a rational country. Trump 2.0 sent Garia to El Salvador. We got him back and now a series of rulings by judges are seen as a “powerful rebuke” of the Trump enforcement arms.

So, looks like we are stuck with the Maryland Dad for a looooonnnngg while. Remember that the Leftist Media Industrial Complex tried and failed to convince us that this Maryland Man was just a hardworking all-American Dad:

Our media bizarrely insist on referring to Garcia, a Salvadoran national, as a “Maryland man.” But he is not a “Maryland man.” He is a Salvadoran national who has been living in the U.S. illegally since 2011, most recently residing in the state of Maryland. Yet you’d hardly know this from casually following the news.

The unwillingness to distinguish between lawful and unlawful immigration — or perhaps the inability to do so, based on political changes to journalistic style guides — seems to have corrupted the media’s ability to tell this story at all.

“Outrage grows over Maryland man’s mistaken deportation to El Salvador prison,” reported the Associated Press.

There was outrage over Garcia’s deportation to El Salvador. You remember the Margarita Summit with Senator Chris Van Hollen:

Just so you know how much the Democrats hate you, how many of them have demanded to see the American citizens kidnapped by Hamas? Don’t bother. Still waiting for that powerful rebuke.

Abrego Garcia has been held in a Nashville (Middle Tennessee) Jail since being returned to the United States. And, it won’t be leaving the Continental United States for a while:

A trio of judges slowed the Trump administration’s effort Wednesday to immediately deport Salvadorian migrant Kilmar Abrego Garcia for a second time, in a series of back-to-back court orders that were praised by Abrego’s attorneys — but had Trump officials posturing for a fight.

The orders came in a span of 90 minutes from the U.S. districts of Tennessee and Maryland and halted, for now, the Trump administration’s stated plans to have Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) arrest Abrego Garcia and immediately begin removal proceedings to deport him to a third country, such as Mexico or South Sudan. Justice Department officials acknowledged that plan in court earlier this month, telling a federal judge in Maryland that the handoff from U.S. marshals to ICE officials would likely take place outside the federal prison where Abrego Garcia is currently being held.

Those fears were bolstered further after senior Trump administration officials took to social media Wednesday to rail against the string of court rulings. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Assistant Secretary Tricia McLaughlin vowed on X Wednesday that Abrego Garcia “will never walk America’s streets again.”

Don’t vow things. Judges take that as backtalk. He just a poor, put-upon victim of the injustice of Trump 2.0.

The remarks prompted fresh concerns from immigration advocates, as well as lawyers for Abrego Garcia and his family.

“We have heightened, ongoing concerns about the Trump administration’s compliance with any and all those involved” in the case, Chris Newman, an attorney who represents Abrego Garcia’s family, told Fox News Digital in an interview Wednesday after the orders.

His concerns came despite the string of near-term victories for Abrego Garcia, aimed at affording him due process and access to counsel ahead of his removal.

In Nashville, U.S. District Judge Waverly Crenshaw on Wednesday ordered Abrego Garcia’s release from criminal custody pending trial, writing in a 37-page ruling that the federal government “fails to provide any evidence that there is something in Abrego’s history, or his exhibited characteristics, that warrants detention.”

He also poured cold water on the dozens of allegations made by Trump officials, including by DHS Secretary Kristi Noem in Nashville last week, that Abrego Garcia is an MS-13 gang member.

“Based on the record before it, for the court to find that Abrego is member of or in affiliation with MS13, it would have to make so many inferences from the government’s proffered evidence in its favor that such conclusion would border on fanciful,” he said.

That if Nucking Futz. What Abrego Garcia didn’t have his MS-13 official decoder ring?

Since Democrats need their Serfs and Slaves driving poor, non-English speaking types is just being a good neighbor, not a human-trafficker. Feds and Judges just don’t care. Like this is so helpful. Forget Garcia’s expired license.

What a humanitarian.

U.S. Magistrate Judge Barbara Holmes, tasked with implementing that order, stayed Abrego Garcia’s release from criminal detention for 30 days, a request made by his attorneys earlier this week.

Two minutes after Judge Crenshaw’s ruling, U.S. District Judge Paula Xinis, the judge overseeing his civil case in Maryland, issued an emergency order blocking the administration from immediately taking Abrego Garcia into ICE custody, citing concerns he would otherwise be removed immediately and without due process.

She also ordered that Abrego Garcia be sent to the ICE Order of Supervision at the Baltimore Field Office, and that the Trump administration notify Abrego Garcia and his counsel of any plans to remove him to a third country 72 hours in advance, to ensure access to counsel and to challenge the country of removal.

Lawyers for Abrego Garcia praised the court orders Wednesday, though they stressed there is a long road ahead — and one that remains fraught with uncertainty.

“These rulings are a powerful rebuke of the government’s lawless conduct and a critical safeguard for Kilmar’s due process rights,” Simon Sandoval-Moshenberg, one of Abrego Garcia’s attorneys, said Wednesday.

Powerful rebuke, my Aunt Frances. These judges and lawyers hate all of us to the Right. We are stuck with Abrego Garcia for quite a while. Pray for the Justice Department lawyers.
