The federal government is working to secure a charter flight to return a man who was removed from the U.S. back to America so he can have proper due process proceedings, the Justice Department said in court documents filed Wednesday.
Last week, U.S. District Judge Brian Murphy ordered the man, only known by the initials O.C.G., to be returned to the United States after he found that necessary due process steps in his removal proceedings were “ignored” by the Trump administration.
O.C.G.'s attorneys argued that he has no criminal history and sought asylum in the United States after multiple violent attacks against him in his native country of Guatemala.
But they were ALL deported without due process, so ALL the deportations are illegal!!
They probably have a chance of winning this, that probably why it looks like they are cooperating
TACO 🌮
The cracks are finally starting to break open. He’s losing power.
Fuck man, there’s still so much damage done and some much to come but, God and liberty willing, we’ll make it through this without becoming monsters ourselvs
77 million Americans voted for the monster. This is far from over even with him gone.
This is the kind of thinking that led to complacency after the 2020 election.
Trump is not the cause of America’s rot; he’s a symptom. Even if he’s gone, there’s a vast web of right-wing media, wealth, fascists, bigots, racists, and voters who are still willing to blow it all up to give the rich more money.
Somehow, we have to deal with the anti-intellectual oppositionally-defiant idiocy that is rampaging through 40% of our population before we can start making true progress again.
No, it’s good that he’s following the law. Unlike those criminals that are trying to manipulate him like Stephen Miller.
His mistake was threatening the rich people’s money.
That’s like dictator 101
What about Kilmar Abrego Garcia?
He’s a legalUS citizenresident and he’s still sitting in CECOT.Edit: resident not citizen
He’s not a US citizen, but he had a court order not to deport from during the previous Trump administration.
Not only that, but the Supreme Court unanimously agreed that he needs to come back. Those guys don’t unanimously agree on anything
KAG is not a US citizen, but was living here legally, and his wife is a US citizen.
working to secure a charter flight
Maybe call Qatar? I hear they have a lot of nice planes.
If only the fedgov had access to an absolute ass-load of c130s and everything smaller, which could be ordered around by the commander in Cheese with little more than a phone call.
They’re painted green and well-marked as US property, so they seem to be ideal for a state mission to rescue the hosta-- uh, prisoner.
Any updates on the four year old US citizen with cancer?
Whoever filed that document is about to get fired, and someone else is going to file new papers telling the judge to fuck off…
Is this government efficiency?
