They’re not freaking out that he’s in El Salvador; they’re freaking out that due to an error, a man was served up to El Salvadoran gangs on a silver platter, based on the flimsiest of evidence — and he’s likely just the first case we know of, but not the only case where this has happened. And our government hasn’t figured out how to right this wrong. Would you like your son being incarcerated in a maximum security prison without a trial? |

The press person today claimed there was a ton of evidence that she's seen regarding this man. Let's see it. |
It means he filed an asylum claim, and could not be deported until this claim was heard. |
If this can happen to him, it can happen to any one of us.

“Abrego, the son of a former police officer in El Salvador, has no criminal record in the United States or El Salvador, his lawyers said in court records. To the contrary, they said he fled to the United States when he was 16 because a violent gang was trying to recruit him and extort money from his mother. He crossed the southern border illegally, found work in construction and set off in search of a better life. Police detained him and others in 2019 while they were looking for work at a Home Depot in Maryland. A confidential informant alleged Abrego belonged to the MS-13 gang, with roots in the U.S. and El Salvador. But at his deportation proceeding, a U.S. immigration judge found that Abrego was the one at risk of gang violence. The judge found that Abrego and his relatives credibly testified that gang members had been trying to extort money from his mother’s pupusa shop for years, forcing the family to move three times. At first the gang tried to recruit his older brother, who fled to the United States, court records show. Then they came after Abrego, who fled, too.“ |

So el salvador can figure it out? He got a free plane ride. |
For you, the cruelty seems to be the point. You know very well that the reason we want to give accused people due process here in the US before sending them to 3rd world countries is that they will not receive due process once they get there. El Salvador is notorious for this. Essentially, this man is at risk of spending the rest of his (short) life in an inhumane prison known to violate practically every human right, when no country has ever shown he's violent, or belongs to a gang, or has done anything wrong except to cross a border illegally. So for you the question is this: do you think a non-violent but illegal border crossing merits such a terrible punishment? It's as if you were sent to a US supermax for getting a speeding ticket, PP. Do you think that's fair? |
Tell that to his 5 year old. |
It’s not illegal to cross the border without documentation if you’re seeking asylum. He sought asylum and it was eventually granted to him. Also, we want to extend due process to people from other countries because our citizens travel too and we want our citizens treated fairly by other countries. Due process protects ALL OF US. |
NP: you're a gross person. Let me guess - weekly church goer? |
Elon is here...by the way Elon your buddy Joe Rogan is even upset by this. |
