Karoline Leavitt is a liar, propagandist & accomplice to a criminal regime. “There is never going to be a world in which [Kilmar Abrego Garcia] is going to live a peaceful life in MD because he is a foreign terrorist & MS-13 gang member,” she said w/o evidence about a man who's committed no crime.

They love what you're doing? I don't think so. But if we can work it out to deport Trumpt San Salvador, I would make one exception. Our President is the worse terrorist of all.

Is now a good time to remind everyone that the president of El Salvador has offered to take American citizens into this prison, as well?
Once you’re stashed in El Salvador, the DOJ claims there’s nothing you can do to get an American court to review your “case,” if you can even call it a case.

the US has some sort of financial arrangement with El Salvador for the slave prison, the argument that they can’t get people out of it is absurd
"Hey it's ICE, we made a lil "administrative error" oopsie and deported someone with protected immigrant status to Salvadoran hell-prison to do slave labor for the rest of his life"
"We'd bring him back but he's out of our jurisdiction, guess his 5-year old daughter will never see him again lol"

Trump administration says man deported to El Salvador 'in error'
The Trump administration erroneously deported a man it alleges is a gang member in Maryland back to El Salvador as part of its March 15 deportation flights despite a judge's ruling prohibiting his removal, according to a court filing on Monday.

An immigration judge already ruled that sending him to El Salvador would violate U.S. law because of harm he’d face there.
