Do you think changing the terms in each post when you're proven wrong tricks anyone? Why don't you go spend some time on Google and at least get all the stories and the terms straight. No amount of cramming will allow you to catch up on all the history lessons you missed. But I'll give you a brief highlight: The US has historically not deported Green card holders, asylees, asylum seekers who passed their credible fear interview and are awaiting their hearing, individuals with a student visa, individuals with a valid work visa, individuals granted witholding of removal, etc when they have committed no crimes. Why? Because there is absolutely no good reason to do so. None. And there are so, so many reasons not to do so. I know you don't care about the ethical and humanitarian reasons but there are also huge economic reasons not do deport legal immigrants who have committed no crimes. |
Sigh. Talk about mealy mouthed. You used the word historically. Either Trump can legally deport him or he can't. He can and he is. Democrats did a lot of things that historically weren't done, and ended up losing an election. Perhaps that will happen to Republicans, but not now. |
If Trump can’t bring him back, he’s the weakest President to ever serve. We are paying El Salvador to imprison people and can make future payments contingent on his return, never mind all the other leverage we have over one of the smallest countries. |
Reporters will have a chance to ask President Bukele on Monday about this case. He’ll be meeting with Trump in the WH, and Trump usually allows the press to ask questions afterwards. Can’t wait to hear what either Bukele or Trump will say on this matter. |
. He could, but no court can order him to do any of those things. Perhaps he doesn't want to jeopardize the larger relationship? El Salvador could offer the man some sort of protection, or investigate his original claim of potential harm if deported back to El Salvador. What if it does the latter and funds that the claim is not credible? That would be grounds for lifting the prior prohibition against repatriation. |
We have a mechanism for that here, in an immigration court (although it isn't actually something we do, just as we do not remove someone to some other country after they receive withholding of removal to their country). Bring him here and then do that. |
Isn't he back home |
No, cutie, he isn't. |
How about the US embassy in El Salvador? Fly in an immigration judge and hold a hearing there? |
DP. Yes he is. He is a citizen of El Salvador, currently residing in…… wait for it…. El Salvador. |
He is in a prison (he has never been charged or convicted of anything, here or there) for terrorists in a country that persecuted him so much that he was granted withholding from removal there and the only reason that he did not receive asylum here was because he filed too late. He had a credible fear then of gangs, which maybe now has been resolved. Now he has a new credible fear. He is not home. |
Wasn't there supposed to be another update today?
|
His government can simply release him from jail then. Wonder why they haven’t? |
Right here. https://storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.uscourts.mdd.578815/gov.uscourts.mdd.578815.65.0.pdf Basically, telling the judge to do the physically impossible. |
