The first rule of fascism is the State Is Never Wrong. It’s that simple. If any of the people we’ve abducted and trafficked out of the country come back, they are living proof of a fallible state, and therefore a threat to their power.
I don’t think that’s impossible but this is overselling it. He is a victim of an unlawful crime and total breach of the constitutional order by Trump.
If he comes back, that means interviews, testimony over who he is, what happened to him, and what he saw.
That is already too much for republicans.

I'm just gonna put it out there: I think they are gonna drag their feet here because Garcia is either not alive or not intact in a way that would set off international sanction.
That's my guess. I think that's why they might have decided *this* person is the critical focus for a showdown.
