The Supreme Court clarified (or Judge Xinis) that he be released and returned to the US. He was working and living in Maryland with his wife and children. He was legally living in the US. Anything short of returning him to the US would not allow him to receive due process.
I'm aware. Due process and following court orders is antithetical to the regime just as they telegraphed. Donald has never known consequences. It's horrid.
What about the new revelation that ICE transferred some of the prisoners to DOD and they were the ones that flew them out even after the court said that ICE had to stop?
How can his case be handled like any other if he’s kept out of the US during the review process? That already sounds like not “handling it like every other case.”
This is all unadulterated bullshit. None of the people renditioned to El Salvador have been charged with a crime, much less convicted of a crime. If the Trump-Musk regime can kidnap and rendition to a concentration camp in a foreign country an undocumented immigrant, they can do it to anyone.
My guess is that they filed under seal the name of the prison he was moved to but they don’t know his condition (besides from Van Hollen) or what would be the conditions of his release.
It does sound "crimier," and more authoritarian. Also this outfit isn't doing much in the way of "administering." At the same time -- well, the facts that Trump-Vance did get elected, and that Trump's approval ratings are still in the high 30s to mid 40s, signal that U.S. democracy is in very serious trouble and this trouble was of our own collective making. Here's hoping there's a reasonably democratic way out of it.
I’m no immigration lawyer. But I question your assumption that Garcia can be deported to another country without an evidentiary hearing. My understanding of the prior withholding from removal order was that it did not grant permanent asylum, but allowed Garcia to remain in the country and work. Garcia was released from custody subject to the supervision of DHS. It seems to me that the government should have prove the prior order is no longer justified.
I think, and don’t count me on this, that this is because the DOJ has admitted they will just re-deport him without due process again. So potentially the safest bet would be he is in a more friendly country that can assist until his case is resolved and he can come back here. I think that is what Allison was getting at. But I’m not certain and believe the sealed information had nothing to do with this, but that they know his location.
Maybe that is what the DOJ intends. But Judge Xinis ordered the government to facilitate Garcia‘a return to the United States - not to facilitate his transfer to another country.
That's the Million dollar question ⁉️ More lies and lawness come out of this Regime than truths or documented facts. Everything is alternative in which is a F'ing Lie! 😡
Keeping positive energy for a speedy & good resolution for Abrego Garcia. Thanks for the update.
This is one of the most horrific situations that I have come across via immigration courts/ law.
My 💜 goes out to his family.
I pray they will at least release him to a country with democratic principles which are upheld
where his wife and children can join him!
Release him to where? He wasn't supposed to have been removed from the US, he's followed all the rules here. BTW, the regime is also sending humans to prison in Rwanda, no joke.https://www.reuters.com/world/us-deports-iraqi-man-centre-debate-refugee-policy-2025-04-24/

I wouldn't hold my breath on that. Cruelty is their agenda. El Salvador is THE worst torture prison in the world, there is always a #2 on the list.

Exactly.
Finally I can see a clear picture of his hands... no tattoos. The bald lie of Trump should land him in jail.
Thank you, Allison, for making it easy for me, and many like me, to understand what's going on with this poor man's case. Appreciate you!

Wow. Thanks for the update, AG.
Slimy sickos are running our country. 🤬 They have to be stopped!
Thank you for this!
What I want to know is if any of the kidnapped prisoners are actually adjudicated members of MS13 or if all deportees are just
run of the mill undocumented?
AG, why don’t you refer to them as the Trump regime instead of administration. Regime sounds crimier.

Very true but they have already ignored more than one court order so I don’t have a lot of hope that they will actually follow through
Always some questionable dodge of what is legal and moreover, what is right.
