At the time an informant gave his gang name and rank, and he was wearing clothes associated with the gang. Not just Bulls but a no snitching hoodie.
And then the arresting officer was found to have been trading sex for information, making the informant’s information suspect, at best.
And the informant said he was active in New York where he has never lived.

But you know what, pp knows this. It's been stated over and over. We have also explained the low bar in bond hearings, the fact that immigration judges essentially work for the administration, the fact that a federal judge, with a higher bar, says there is no actual evidence. The administration (minus Trump who is more indifferent and clueless by the day) knows this. They are opting to continue lying
Pp would like to villanize the man to make it seem OK for trump to break the law.
The man is innocent AND he has a right to due process.

“Kilmar Abrego Garcia reported to Sen. Chris Van Hollen during a meeting in El Salvador that he was moved nine days ago from that country's Terrorism Confinement Center, or CECOT, to another facility with better conditions.”

"The guy who America knowingly sent to a torture camp got moved to a nicer prison solely because a Senator personally got involved with his case, therefore it's fine to keep taking untold numbers of human beings off of American soil and knowingly sending them to torture camps."
It's unbelievable and sickening that people who call themselves Americans think things like this. I used to think our country was better than this but these past few years have proved we are rotten to the core with the kinds of people who would have willingly and joyfully sent their Jewish neighbors to concentration camps in 1940s Germany.
It's not OK that these torture camps exist in El Salvador. It's not OK that America is sending anyone to torture camps in El Salvador. The fact that one single person escaped the torture camp in El Salvador does not make it OK that they exist and we're sending people there.
We used to fight wars against countries with torture camps. We called the people who fought against them the "greatest generation" for a reason. If you're not against sending ANYONE from the US to a torture camp you're against America.
Yes. As a reminder, Germany built all of its first and most of its total concentration camps (until midway through the war) outside of Germany.
This precedent suggests further that any of us, once kidnapped by law enforcement and having left the country, are allowed any treatment legally. Please explain how forcing a third generation American from Nebraska with no due process into a jet owned by Venezuelan and then the Venezuelans shoving him out of the plan over international waters, and the US paying them to do this would be against the law if the treatment of Kilgore Garcia is legal.
So what's the solution? Just give up and let Trump run rampant until there is a sufficient change in Congress to permit impeachment? If this Constitutional issue just gets ignored with no remedy, ALL inconvenient Constitutional protections evaporate. Do yo want that?
Unless this is stamped down now, not the Trump agenda but the petulent disregard for federal law and the Constitution, it will only stop if someone important is tragically caught up in one of the assaults and dies or is incarcerated.

Oh please no one was restricted from traveling, at least domestically on a federal level. However Trump made it difficult for travelers from overseas to enter the country. But we never had mandatory quarantine like Australia or Singapore.

They are throwing everything out there to see what sticks. If only we could see a trial with evidence.

The man had 2 hearings. Both found he was MS-13, but you refuse to believe that for some reason.
This status as MS-13 isn't the issue. As perfect a candidate as he may be for deportation and long-term storage at CECOT, if the government does so without following the proper process, the government loses. Anything else just leads to a Machiavellian state where the government can do as it pleases as long as the goal is laudable (by some). How will you like it when Obama II decides that tax hikes are necessary and Congress just an impediment so it simply the Fed to take money from you bank account?
What was the proper process?

His lawyers would profit in particular from reading the last part of Judge Wilkinson’s opinion, which the press has ignored. It’s advice to judges and the President to avoid a clash.
“Now the branches come too close to grinding irrevocably against one another in a conflict that promises to diminish both,” he wrote. “The Judiciary will lose much from the constant intimations of its illegitimacy, to which by dent of custom and detachment we can only sparingly reply. The Executive will lose much from a public perception of its lawlessness and all of its attendant contagions.”
There is much wisdom in those words. Our constitutional system depends on checks and balances, but also on some flexibility in the joints of that balancing. Mr. Trump may be able to get away with defying the courts on Mr. Abrego Garcia, but it isn’t worth the political cost for him or the country. He has far bigger issues on which he will need the Supreme Court in the next four years.
