El Salvador President Nayib Bukele said Monday that he would not return Kilmar Abrego Garcia to the United States despite a U.S. Supreme Court order that says the Trump administration should facilitate his return.
“The question is preposterous,” Bukele said at the White House during a meeting with President Donald Trump, when he was asked about sending Abrego Garcia back from the notorious Salvadoran prison where he has been held since being forcibly deported in March.
“How can I smuggle a terrorist into the United States?” Bukele said. “I don’t have the power to return him to the United States.”
Top Trump administration officials at the same Oval Office meeting suggested they would not comply with Maryland U.S. District Court Judge Paula Xinis’ demand that officials facilitate Abrego Garcia’s return from his native country.
The Trump administration, which claims he is a gang member, has admitted that Abrego Garcia, a married father of three who lives in Maryland, was deported due to an administrative error.
Our POTUS is going to fight tooth and nail to acquire what isn’t ours (Canada, Greenland, etc), but wont even attempt to bring back a man who is supposed to live in the freest nation in the world.
It’s the point, next are political dissenters and those who aren’t loyal enough. The SCOTUS just green lit the destruction of the 4th amendment, the bill of rights isn’t worth the paper it was written on anymore.
