It’s the Fugitive Slave Act all over again, and ought to be resisted by any means necessary, in pretty much the same manner as the FSA was. Plus, this is not a legitimate government, which makes the situation morally even more cut and dry than the FSA was.

What an absolute joke. Everyone here is pretending. Bukele is pretending that he's incapable of releasing someone his own jail is holding at US expense, and Trump is pretending he can't just ask Bukele to release the guy. And meanwhile, Mr. Abrego rots in prison.

NEW: DOJ doubles down on refusing to follow Judge Xinis's orders. Today's status report contains nothing new. It again fails to provide information about steps they're taking to bring Mr. Abrego back), and arguably violates her command that a declaration be made by someone with personal knowledge.

THREAD: The Trump administration's DOJ has removed a study from the NIJ website that found that immigrants, and particularly undocumented immigrants, commit crimes at significantly lower rates than U.S. citizens. The study is at odds with the Trump regime's propaganda about immigrants & crime. (1)

So Trump is using Garcia’s status as an El Salvadoran national to justify doing nothing at all to facilitate his return to the U.S. as required by the 9-0 April 10 SCOTUS order. In the meantime these thugs are planning to designate part of CECOT Prison in El Salvador as U.S. territory!

I don’t use the “fascist” term often or really ever, as to preserve its meaning, but what the United States Government is embarking on with the El Salvadoran prison camp is simply that. It’s an affront to the rule of law, the Constitution, and centuries of Anglo-American constitutional development.

WOW: “Defendants are not in a position where they "can" share any information requested by the Court. That is the reality.” DOJ refuses to say more, doesn’t even say whether they are refusing to appear at 1 pm hearing

Supreme Court's issued a unanimous order to return someone from the gulag. Now we'll truly see how much the court system, period, still has teeth.

NEW: The Supreme Court directs the Trump administration to "facilitate" the return of Kilmar Abrego Garcia from a prison in El Salvador, where he was sent due to an "administrative error." It also somewhat narrows the district court's order. No noted dissents. www.documentcloud.org/documents/25...

Can't be emphasized enough that the image of the US deporting people for things they said is so much more damaging to its foreign policy interests than anything a student might have said on the quad

The fact that #SCOTUS hasn't yet ruled in Abrego Garcia isn't proof of how the justices are going to rule. But the longer it takes, the more it suggests that there isn't a majority of the Court who views this dispute with the same urgency that so many of us do. And that's a problem unto itself.

This is a thousand times more of a threat than the economic devastation we’re all reasonably enough distraught about out. The constitutional order as we’ve known it is hanging by a fraying thread that trump is holding a straight razor to with no one even reaching to withdraw his hand.
