This is the clearest proof yet to me that the Trump regime will stop at nothing to get what they want. They feel totally unencumbered by the Constitution, the Rule of Law, or basic human decency. All of us must keep showing up in unity to stop them. We can’t give up.

No, the DOJ wants to deport him immediately, but that would mean he wouldn’t be able to prepare for his trial. He remains in jail until the judge decides whether prosecutors have the power to stop him from being deported.

Worse. This would PROVE Abrego’s indictment was DOJ corruption. The investigation and charges were the government’s reaction to the court order to return Abrego, after its own admitted error. It comes from Trump’s pathological response to being told what to do in the name of justice.

No, they wanted to avoid unambiguously defying the SCOTUS-blessed court order to return Abrego. They created a scenario to claim they (maliciously) complied with the order that would align with their precious narrative that these are vicious criminals.

No criminal charges just means they can claim his lack of legal status here means they can deport him (to a third country that isn't where he's from, since his claim of asylum is based on asserting that sending him to his home country would present a danger to him). (1/2)

They made the criminal charges originally to keep him in detention until SCOTUS decided it was okay to deport to a third country. That decision came out this week. (2/2)
