In the #Trump admin’s #SCOTUS application, it refers to Abrego Garcia as an “enemy alien.”

The government has claimed that Garcia was removed under the #Immigration & Nationality Act, NOT the #AlienEnemiesAct.

The Trump admin has also claimed he’s a member of M13 which is NOT covered by the #AEA, only Tren de Aragua.

The admin appealed Judge Xinis’s order to the US Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit, which on Mon declined to intervene immediately & stay the lower court ruling.

So the #Trump admin asked #SCOTUS to intervene on an emergency basis [I think we’re in double digits now for Trump’s SCOTUS emergency applications].

Abrego García has been detained at #CECOT, a mega-prison in #ElSalvador, since #ICE deported him last month, despite a court order forbidding it because he had fled death threats from gang members in his home country.

#Trump officials have argued that they have no power to return Abrego García because he is now in the custody of El Salvador. [even though the US is paying El Salvador to incarcerate him & others there]

#NorthCarolina's #Republican majority Court of Appeals sided w/the GOP candidate in a suit contesting last year's State #SupremeCourt #election.

The decision could result in ~64k ballots being thrown out, handing the election to the Republican instead of the Democratic Justice who won.

The case will likely be appealed.

@ianbremmer speaking as a man who sold his soul, #republican party, #democracy, over the course of decades of dis-service to constituents and all #Americans who have suffered because he was bought & owned decades before #trump. #neverforget this is the man who served the will of extremists and #fascists to seat #supremecourt justices so #unethical, incompetent and venal, that our #democracy and the #judiciary will never recover. Time is long past to pander to the rich & powerful. #FreeAmerica

#Trump admin: “But there is no jurisdiction in habeas. Plaintiffs admit—as they must—that the United States does not have custody over Abrego Garcia.”

They are arguing they don’t have jdx because he’s in El Salvador. He’s in El Salvador because they *mistakenly* sent him there. And the US govt is PAYING #ElSalvador to hold him in the detention center there.

This makes absolutely no sense.

Continued thread

The #immigration judge had declared that Abrego Garcia was "more likely than not" to face persecution in #ElSalvador & the #Trump admin sent him there.

They even admit they knew, “although ICE was aware of his protection from removal to El Salvador, Abrego Garcia was removed to El Salvador because of an administrative error” & STILL they will not do anything to bring him back.

ICYMI -

What to expect from a felon tyrant wannabe king who keeps getting stopped by a judiciary enforcing the #RuleOfLaw? That he continue to break laws and try to silence those who call it out and oppose him.

It’s also why he’s attacking law firms.

Ya see now, in order for this BS to be true, the individuals would have needed to go through #DueProcess for the ofcls to make the determination:

“That order is forcing the United States to harbor individuals whom national-security officials have identified as members of a foreign terrorist organization bent upon grievously harming Americans.“
