Summary

The Trump administration said it would not provide information on how it will get a wrongly deported Maryland dad home by a Friday morning deadline because the timeframe a judge imposed was “impracticable.”

In effect, the Department of Justice (DOJ) is openly defying a court order that requires it to provide details about 29-year-old Kilmar Abrego Garcia’s whereabouts and how he will be brought back stateside.

“The Supreme Court has spoken quite clearly, and yet I can’t get an answer,” said Judge Paula Xinis.

“We must heed the Supreme Court and get him back,” Rep. Jamie Raskin said.

    Do you think he’s dead or they just don’t want an exposé of the conditions?

    Or that diplomatic channels prevent it? Lol.

      Whether he’s alive or not, it’s more that they don’t care and don’t want to be told they have to do anything by some liberal activist judge.

        Trump paid to send them there, and plans to even send American citizens.

        US has its own prisons, and many are for profit, so they generate money from prisoners.

        Now questions is why would we send people to a foreign country, and pay them to keep prisoners?

        The answer is simple: CECOT is used to outsource getting rid of people. And unless US continuously pays them to hold them (which I doubt it was more than one time fee), CECOT has no benefit of keeping those people alive.

          It’s used to remove them from the protections of a US citizen on us property the same as gitmo which is why gitmo is expanding to 30k prisoners. They’re testing the waters without having to risk all the bullshit at gitmo at the same time. It’s shitty but it’s not likely to be a literal death camp specifically because no one is going to continue paying if they know that they’re dead. Duh.

              They’re paying 20k per prisonor annually bud. He’s a greedy fool who rarely pays anything but he’s paying this.

              Cecot yes I’ve seen cecot. Presumably you meant to link the mounds of dirt which you didn’t actually do. They might well be killing their own intentionally, they aren’t likely to be doing that to Americans because payments would stop.

      I’d argue they might be testing the waters to see how much they can get away with. It could be a logistics thing, but I doubt it. I highly doubt they care one way or another about the individual.

      This could be a blatant test on how far their power will extend. People haven’t been saying “authoritarian” and “threat to democracy” for the past few months just for the fun of it.

        Yes, I think this is a first test to see how far they can stretch things with the law and deport people without justification at all.
        By extension it tests the current regimes ability and efficiency on how easily they can remove people. When it is clear there are no legal roadblocks and delays the shipping containers and “train transports” will come out…

        Also, I don’t think he’s dead, might have been beaten and barely fed.
        But they most likely will have no knowledge about his status or direct whereabouts at all, might even be handed over to El Salvador’s prison anonymously. Regimes in such prisons usually strip all identity anyway.

          Yep. Why keep track of the prisoners you never plan to let out?

        I think it’s logistics. They threw him in a pit with a hundred other guys. Maybe you can find the one who will claim he’s supposed to get out.

      He very well could be dead, but I think the primary thing happening here is they want to create the precedent that they can’t bring anyone back from this prison. That way, they can start sending “undesirable” American citizens “by mistake” and then just be able to say “not our problem”.

      If he’s not dead yet they sure hope he dies quickly, right? That’s the objective. Export your executions.

      They don’t want him back because he’s not aryan.

      Oh sorry wrong fascists. Same principle though
