It’s not as clear cut as the press makes it seem. He’s had a removal order in place since 2019, and he was found to be a member of MS-13.

This can be a testing ground for AUSA employees that are not political appointees. If you suck up to the left lunatic judge, you’re toast. If you basically give the judge the finger, you’re fine.
