So the Photo shopped MS 13 tattoo on the knuckles wasn't real ?? Shocking
The Trump administration’s MS-13 case against Kilmar Abrego Garcia crumbled in court
Before the Trump administration finally returned Kilmar Abrego Garcia to the U.S. this month, officials kept claiming he belonged to the deadly MS-13 gang. Even if true, that wouldn’t have been a valid reason for the government to avoid compliance with a court order for his return after illegally sending him to El Salvador in March.
But in any event, it shouldn’t escape notice that a federal judge just picked apart the gang claim that the Justice Department has continued to push since his return.
That picking-apart came in Sunday’s ruling that rejected the DOJ’s bid to detain Abrego ahead of trial on criminal charges the government had waiting for him upon his return. He pleaded not guilty to allegations of illegally transporting undocumented immigrants. (U.S. Magistrate Judge Barbara Holmes’ opinion Sunday noted that his preferred surname is “Abrego,” after he has been consistently referred to in court documents and reports as “Abrego Garcia.”)
Abrego’s criminal charges don’t hinge on whether he’s a gang member. But the issue arose in Holmes’ detention ruling because the government argued that his alleged gang membership supported his detention. “The Government’s investigation has revealed that the defendant has a long history and association with MS-13,” prosecutors wrote ahead of a June 13 hearing.
But in her ruling following the hearing, Holmes said the government’s evidence of Abrego’s MS-13 membership “consists of general statements, all double hearsay, from two cooperating witnesses.” She said those statements, in turn, are contradicted by another witness who, the judge wrote, said that “in ten years of acquaintance with Abrego, there were no signs or markings, including tattoos, indicating that Abrego is an MS-13 member.” Given the conflicting evidence, the judge wrote, “the government’s evidence of Abrego’s alleged gang membership is simply insufficient.”
Remember this guy?
Whose arrest/detention under questionable legal circumstances started pretty much all of the deportation fiascos instead of deporting "really bad guys/criminals/terrorists?
He's been released too.

Yeah.
If the estate of Ashley Babbit can get $5 mil breaking and entering a government building this guy should get paid.
Which thing are you talking about?
The two preceding posts with the back & forth between reporters and Leavitt. Everyone involved is farming for hot takes & quotes to get quick attention.
Other examples from previous admin is Fox News' Peter Doocy vs whoever the Biden admin was trotting out. Doocy was just being inflammatory on purpose.

The back and forth I posted was AG Bindi and she was saying that to a Member of Congress while testifying before Congress under oath..this is how she was responding to Congressional questions
OK. Same sentiment still applies. AG, WH press secretary, Senator, Congressman, pool reporter... It's all the same. Nobody is solving $#!t, just bitching back and forth nonstop.

I generally agree with you and there is certainly some “gotcha” to the congressional hearings. But, her responses to a fairly straightforward question were reprehensible and stupid.

Stephen Miller, the 39-year-old immigration hawk who has been by President Trump’s side since the 2016 campaign, has emerged as a singular figure in the second Trump administration.
He wields more power than almost any other White House staffer in recent memory—and is eager to circumvent legal limitations on his agenda.

The former vice chief of the National Guard is calling for an end to President Trump's dangerous deployment of troops in Los Angeles to carry out his political agenda.
Military troops shouldn't police their own communities.

This just seems unbelievably cruel to me. Can you imagine seeking asylum in the US from Venezuela, then being sent to South Sudan?
The Supreme Court on Monday allowed the Trump administration to deport migrants to countries other than their own, pausing a federal judge’s ruling that said they must first be given a chance to show that they would face the risk of torture and potentially clearing the way for the administration to send men held at an American military base in Djibouti to South Sudan.
The court’s order gave no reasons and said the judge’s ruling would remain paused while the government pursues an appeal and, after that, until the Supreme Court acts. The court’s three liberal members issued a lengthy dissent.

When you've lost Kevin Sorbo, is there anything left to fight for?
Ugh. Pay wall. I was talking with a “Reagan Republican” friend of mine about Stephen Miller recently. I mentioned that, I hate to say it, he is a racist. It set my friend off a bit, but then he admitted he knows very little about Stephen Miller. This friend has always been a fan of the Heritage Foundation, but he is a very thoughtful and considerate person. He would never knowingly support a racist, but he’s really pleased with the 2nd Trump administration. I wish there was a simple way to show him how awful these people really are.In convinced this dude is 100% a Nazi
