Abrego Garcia, free again, faces new Monday arrest deadline
The Washington Times ^ | Sunday, August 24, 2025 | Stephen Dinan

Kilmar Abrego Garcia, released from jail Friday, now faces a new Monday deadline to check in with ICE, where the government has told him he could face a quick deportation to Uganda — a country to which his lawyers say he has no ties.

The lawyers said that the threat appears to be part of a strategy to coerce Mr. Abrego Garcia to plead guilty to embarrassing criminal charges. They’ve offered to let him be deported to Costa Rica if he does agree, the lawyers said in new court filings.

It’s the latest turn for Mr. Abrego Garcia, who became the face of the Trump administration’s aggressive deportation push after his March arrest and wrongful ouster to El Salvador — his home country, but an immigration judge had said he could not be deported there.

He was freed from jail in Tennessee on Friday, after a judge ruled the migrant-smuggling criminal case against him doesn’t rise to the level of a threat to keep him behind bars until his trial.

U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement had initially planned to quickly arrest him again, but another federal judge in Maryland had ordered the agency not to do so. Judge Paula Xinis said ICE wrongly arrested Mr. Abrego Garcia on March 12, so it had to restore him to the status he had before that — in other words, free in the community.

But that doesn’t block him from being rearrested after that, ICE argues.

Charles Wall, ICE’s principal legal adviser, said in emails to Mr. Abrego Garcia’s legal team that the migrant must check in with ICE on Monday in Maryland, and notified them of his possible third-country deportation to Uganda.

If he’s free in the U.S., won’t he be able to evade capture? And why is he free?

And it’s costing all of us taxpayers.

Dump this lout over the border and be done with him.

Chrissy Van Hollen better set up a guard shack outside of Kid Abrego Bandito’s Master Bedroom.

He could always go back to El Salvador except he’s in danger of being killed by a rival gang even though he’s not a member of any gang.

Now, Garcia has some idea of how British activist
Tommy Robinson feels “leaving the prison with Revolving Doors’, except in Abrego Garcia’s case, he actually is a criminal and a felon who deserves to live behind bars for a number of years.

Someone should just shoot his sorry ass, then we wouldn’t have to worry about him anymore.
