The U.S. government attorney also struggled to provide any information about the exact whereabouts of Kilmar Abrego Garcia, despite Thursday’s ruling from the U.S. Supreme Court that the Trump administration must bring him back.

“Where is he and under whose authority?” U.S. District Judge Paula Xinis asked in a Maryland courtroom.

“I’m not asking for state secrets,” she said. “All I know is that he’s not here. The government was prohibited from sending him to El Salvador, and now I’m asking a very simple question: where is he?”

    Judge, order a copy of his fingerprints RIGHT NOW to check for imposters when they bring some poor slob into the courtroom claiming he is the guy. Also, have his family on a video call to the court to check him. Don’t bring them in person since they could get grabbed too.
