When DOJ filed its response to Judge Xinis around 12:15 pm today, it said: “Plaintiff is in the custody of a foreign sovereign.”
Drew Ensign’s name was on the brief.
An hour later, at the hearing, Ensign told the judge that he didn’t have info on Garcia’s whereabouts and custodial status.

Homan said today that intel from El Salvador established this man is a gang member.
Disbar him asap
Project 2025 and the Heritage Foundation must be destroyed. Demolished.
"He who acts to save his country from tyranny, domestic terrorism, Project 2025, and radical right wing criminals, violates no laws.”
I have no hope any of these shitheads will ever see the ostracism and consequences they deserve.
This court should finally “do something about it”…
We don’t have that.
They don't get paid to keep track of them or their safety.
That's my read.
Strictly business for them: they take in N people. That's N*dollars for them. They aren't expecting to return any of the people, so why work at making sure the N people live?
None of us would have gotten away with half this crap.
My family has worked with presidential administrations for a 100yrs, this is madness!
#ChristianAHerter #Roosevelt #LBJ #Kennedy Presidents even came to lunch!
It was always about #Freedom #Liberty
But who is going to jail them?
I've got to wonder if judges are afraid of issuing contempt orders not out of fear for their own safety but out of fear the contempt orders will go unheeded and then we all see just how bad it is.
With this BULLSHIT justice, they can send any citizen to a max jail.
And they can bring him back. Our tax dollars are being paid to house these immigrants.
Trump has made us complicit. WTF
If any of this was done by a Democratic President, [they] would already have stormed the Capitol a second time.
😐😒
That doesn't specifically say that the foreign sovereign is El Salvador. Like is there a labor camp NOT in El Salvador he could have been sent to instead?
That sounds like something the Orange Menace would do, sell prison labor.
🤔
He said he had "Nothing", after saying Abrego was in the "custody of a foreign sovereign" an hour before. Why didn't he say: "All I know is that he is in El Salvador" then?
Where is he?
Where is he?

Bc foreign sovereign def sounds more "out of our hands" 🤷🏼♀️ while "contractor for services rendered" - while nauseating in context - seems more accurate.
*Even dogs* are tracked if you pay a *kennel* to care for them.
- dead?
- severely injured/incapacitated?
- has a story to tell that is too embarrassing for him to see the light of day?
Enquiring minds want to know. What’s next …deporting tourists?

Hubris is a goddamned killer.
Sure mcconnell did what he does, he obstructs and is a republican asshole.
put your anger towards the complicit idiots in our own party not fighting and using ever procedure to stop trumps agenda.
Yesterday,
Proof of life is needed.
As well as hus will being.
a) in foreign custody
b) in US custody
c) no longer in custody.
In its filing, US says it’s a).
In the hearing, did US say it doesn’t know if it is a, b, or c?
Is El Savador just running ppl out the back door (or horrifically worse) &collecting the cheque?
Art of the Deal, right?🤬
Huge priority to save $ tho?😡
contempt hearing coming up....
And then she DIDN'T put him in a cell for contempt.
Another fix is in.
#SSDD
We need a judge for this shit? Hell, I can ask a few questions, be disrespected, and do nothing.
They’re all cowards. Not one has stopped the blatant lawlessness.
or are "officers of the court" exempted from statements being made to the court while it is in session being "under oath"?
Or if he’s deceased please tell his lawyer and family and then tell the world.
Until you get to Blanche or Bondi, the lawyers are just fodder, and they would let them rot.
Oh, HELL, NO!
False brief?!
Ohh ho ho. Something is WAY off here.
Shit I'm Canadian and I give a fuck. Like hello?

I don't think El Salvador has a business motivation to keep track of every prisoner.
They get paid to receive prisoners, put them somewhere, and everything else is a _cost_ to El Salvador.
As a business, they want to reduce costs, right?
So maybe dead, but why track.?
This is on us.
Why isn’t it in jail for contempt?
what part of 'facilitate' 'effectuate' doesn't the Gov't understand?
the Dept of Justice and all those lawyers don't know the meaning of those words?
SURE
strangly enough, I learned both these word in high school english class.
Miriam Webster dictionary
Top Lookups Right Now
1 effectuate - to cause or bring about (something)
2 facilitate - to help bring (something) about
A soul can dream.
Lobbyist work In 2019, after her final term as Florida attorney general, Bondi was hired by Ballard Partners, a firm with close ties to Trump, and she began working as a registered foreign agent as a lobbyist for the Embassy of the State of Qatar.
Special place in hell for people like this--front and center on the electric bleachers.
expectation of accountabilty
ZERO
how does that even work?
Look at it from El Salvador's perspective: holding people costs money.
You want to reduce the costs.
You reduce the space you hold the people in, you reduce the food you give them, and maybe you --oops-- reduce the people you are holding.

In the South, speaking of some preachers we say, "he will piss on your feet while shaking your hand" that is what Ensign is doing and Stephen Miller is forcing him to do it.

Smells like Nazi bullshit to me.
We live in a cruel world without adequate justice. We don't live in a meritocracy. People like Ensign unfortunately have bright futures ahead of them.
That April 20th Insurrection Act thing will be the perfect retaliation against the protests.
Shits gonna get real quick.
The Maga King wants to be King of US now.
Kilmar Abrego Garcia is like the Arch Duke.
