Sitting beside President Donald Trump in the Oval Office, El Salvador President Nayib Bukele told reporters he would not return a man the Justice Department said it mistakenly deported to his country.

"How can I return him to the United States? Like if I smuggle him into the United States? Of course I'm not going to do it. The question is preposterous," Bukele said when asked if he'd return Kilmar Abrego Garcia. "We're not very fond of releasing terrorists," he added.

Trump then turned to Bukele and said of the assembled reporters: "They'd love to have a criminal released into our country. These are sick people."

He also said he wants Bukele to take in as many criminals "as possible."

[Alas Babylon!]

Great news! DC Judge can go to San Salvador and try to order them around...

[Alas Babylon!]

Mistakenly? To the Left. To MAGA—on purpose and just what we voted for!

[Tell It Right]

For the umpteenth time, he was an illegal alien anyway. It was a “mistake” to deport him.

[SaxxonWoods]

The judge just ordered the arrest of the president of San Salvador.

[Eleutheria5]

Oh, well. We tried.

[No name given]

Exactly.

We're not very fond of releasing terrorists

From another article about questions to Stephen Miller:

“He was not mistakenly sent to El Salvador,” Miller said, pushing back on the Justice Department’s repeated assertions in numerous court filings that Garcia was sent to a notorious Salvadoran prison last month because of “an administrative error.”

“This was the right person sent to the right place,” Miller said, despite the Supreme Court’s criticism of the removal in a ruling last week.

I’m under the impression he was not “mistakenly” deported. Or am I missing something?

[cuban leaf]

That would be a great Babylon Bee headline. 😁

My Man! Give that country zero tariffs!

[Alas Babylon!]

Boasberg and Xinis Judges outflank Trump?

Or so they thought!

[DesertRhino]

Why would he? The man is a citizen of El Salvador.

[PGR88]

Excellent.

I wish he had called the woke US judge a racist and yankee colonialist for good measure - its the only slogans US neo-marxists understand.

He was to be deported...just not to El Salvador. That was because when he left a rival gang was after him. El Salvador has since ended that gang. So now, his excuse to not go back to El Salvador is long gone.

[Eleutheria5]

For this, they need to send in Judge Dredd.

CHECKMATE, Boozeberg..................

DC Judge Orders Trump to Bomb El Salvador!

IF the commies love this illegal alien SO damn much, they can fly to El Salvador and go get his ass himself no one is stopping them

“The judge just ordered the arrest of the president of San Salvador.”

LOL.

(OT — He’s the president of El Salvador. San Salvador is the capital city and its Mayor Mario Durán might be surprised to hear he’s been promoted.)
