If we expect other countries to keep their criminals from coming to our country we need to do the same. It’s also giving off a dystopian “Escape from L.A.” vibe.

Criminals also provide a means of getting information on bigger fish. Kind of hard to do when they’re in another country.

This administration has and continues to argue that once sent to El Salvador, there's nothing the courts or anyone can do. They're using El Salvador prisons as the new concentration camp so they can claim they are outside US control once you're there. They can take anyone and ship them off in the night with no due process.

Yeah keep Trump over there, 😛

But seriously, feel bad for you guys.   Not really sure why the markets in the rest of the world are panicking so much.   Glad Europe is taking a wait and see approach, but if these tariffs hold, we will just deal with Mexico , South America and Canada and bypass USA.

They picked him up because he was from El Salvador originally. That's pretty much it and then they ignored his rights and shipped him to a supermax El Salvador mega prison known for its violence and abuse.

I bet some lawyers are already drooling to get him back into the states.

DOJ has no idea with Mr. Garcia is and is attempting to ignore a Supreme Court order (9-0) to return Mr. Garcia to the United States. This is a Constitutional crisis as the Trump admin tests the waters for simply ignoring a court order.

“I think the Supreme Court is responsible to some extent because they diced words,” retired judge Shira Scheindlin told CNN’s John Berman on Monday. But Scheindlin warned the administration was entering dangerous ground. “What we have here is a defiance of the Supreme Court order. The Supreme Court said facilitate his return and expedite it.”

Scheindlin added: “It’s defiance which puts us on the edge of a constitutional crisis between the judicial branch and the executive branch.”

...The White House’s power moves suggest it does not just want to unilaterally decide who gets deported, based on its own criteria and not those of the courts. It also wants to heavily influence the caseloads of big-time law firms; what is taught in top universities; and the news Americans see on television. These are classic pages from the playbooks of strongman leaders like Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán, another Trump hero, who established his power by reining in the independence of the law, the media and academia.

The Constitutional Crisis is officially here. When Trump officials are found in contempt of court and are shielded from that ruling by Trump, we will officially have reached crisis because if Trump can ignore court orders and the courts have no recourse through contempt, then the courts themselves are no longer a co-equal branch under the law.

The judge offered no proof anyone on the plane was not a member of the terrorist organization. People are actually in favor of bringing terrorists back into the U.S. and you’re saying I’m the one who doesn’t care about the constitution?

Yep the administration screwed up. If they are going to enact the Alien Enemies Act they should have had concrete evidence/intelligence. Single reporting is not that.

The act also did not seem to pertain to the situation because the target country is not an adversary. I could be wrong on that though.

These two statements conflict. First, suggesting a judge should offer proof of guilt is just insane when it comes to something like this. How would a judge, who is supposed to sit in judgement of evidence, provide evidence? It literally makes no sense. Second, you counter your own original argument by saying the "administration" meaning Trump, should have concrete evidence. So which is it? The judge should provide evidence or the government doing the deportation should provide evidence. I've noticed now that all of Trump's sycophants have labeled Abrego Garcia some version of terrorist or gang member and yet, to this point, they have offered 0, zilch, nada in the way of proof of such an accusation. You accused me of supporting returning terrorists to the US which is still horseshit, but I do believe we are a nation of laws and due process should apply to everyone within the confines of the United States. If Abrego Garcia is a gang member and terrorists, provide proof of that in a court of law. It is not, will not, and should not, be up to judges to provide evidence to the contrary. It is the responsibility of prosecutors to prosecute a case and present their evidence. Once you change to the government, without any evidence, can send anyone it wants to a foreign prison at any time, we no longer have a country. We have a dictatorship.

This is some Nazi level logic here. "Either you are with us, or you support terrorism" is a hell of a statement from a country that literally has free speech as the very first amendment to the Constitution.

Key difference being that today it isn’t fear of foreign left wing ideologies like it was 100 years ago nor is it a fear of an imaginary extreme. Instead, this is far right fascist ideology being implemented in very real ways in real time right here by those sworn to protect and defend our Constitution. And it is a clear and present danger to all of us, whether we admit it or not. Whether we bury our heads in the sand or not. 

Fighting against it is our duty and it’s a cause worth dying for.

There is none. MAGA endorses and supports these actions. Their silence both at the national level and elsewhere shows us that.
