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.
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.
Cuz he’s dead, you murderous fuckers.
it makes them look bad amongst thier constituents if he is returned.
They can’t return him because he’s already dead.
Fucking monsters.
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.
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.
Looks like a US senator went to visit, but there was no Kilmar to be found.
He’s alive!
Holy crap, looks like you are right. Link
They let the torture supporting magas into the prison but not a senator
Oh, so we DO care about protective orders for women who have been abused??? I thought we weren’t supposed to care about that when it comes to people, even if they’re POTUS.
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.
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
Well, the guy is a known gang member, wife beater, and criminal, not the loving male role model the left wing media would have you believe. He was a criminal in El Salvador, he was a criminal in the US. Dont drink the Kool Aid. Everyone loves a clickbait feel good story…
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)
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?
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 would trade you for him
Zero evidence for any of that shit you said.
I’d love to be proven wrong, but you won’t deliver.
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.
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.
As far as being arrested in the company of known MS-13 gang members while carrying drugs: PUBLIC RECORD. As far as beating his wife and having an order of protection filed against him: PUBLIC RECORD. His wife’s own sworn affidavit, and the pictures she provided to the police after he bet her up again, public record as well as the evidence provided to the media. This stuff isn’t hard to find. Everyone is scared to death that the government might have gotten something right for once. It doesn’t generate enough clicks, so people don’t like to admit it. As far as being a criminal in El Salvador, it’s alleged, not proven, that he was connected to gang activity before fleeing at the age of 16. The rest of it is absolutely proven and documented.
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?
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?
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.
I don’t care about him personally. I care about how they did this. That is the crux of the issue.
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…
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”.
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
Worst case scenario is the ‘prison’ is nothing but a death camp and they’re killing everybody.
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?!
Holy shit! Like right after I saw this I saw the picture wirh Van Hollen and him that was posted like an hour ago! I’m so grateful that I’m wrong!!! Now fucking bring him home!
van hollen met up with him, all dolled up, to hide the beatings, or mistreatment.

Somehow, he’s alive.
the comments on that post are something else
non-x.com version
https://xcancel.com/ChrisVanHollen/status/1913034619710034094also Jesus those comments do NOT understand that in any stable civilization the phrase
It is better that ten guilty persons escape than that one innocent suffer.
is better than the opposite
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.)
You could be next. Meet your neighbors. Organize. arm yourself. You have allowed a dictator to take control of your country. He will not let it go without a literal fight.
2A for all!
Good way to get yourself executed on the street.
I mean, if the alternative is executed in El Salvador…
Fair enough.
My neighbors still think that the 2nd amendment’s purpose is to just to stop the godless libs…
They dont even realize that there are very well armed socialists living amongst them. And we are so much better armed than they could ever imagine.
Oh so they’re stopping this then, right?
Outsider perspective 2nd amendment is a joke, the only thing it guarantees is a disproportionate level of gun crime and perpetuates a police culture of kill or be killed.
A country spends most of its lifetime muttering about “dfndn frdm” and watching people die in mass violence daily… and then when the promised tyrant actually shows up, everyone just watches and tuts. The thing that will determine the winner of an armed uprising is, as always, anyone with the unified backing of the military or the support of powerful external benefactors.
A friend of mine, who is a white female so white she’s virtually translucent, with red hair and blue eyes had a child with a South American Native 20 years ago. Their daughter looks like a South American Native. No trace of her mother’s heritage. My friend is terrified.
My ex-girlfriends daughter did the same 5 or 6 years ago. Same result. They’re terrified, also.
