He doesn't respect the sovereignty of Canada,

He doesn't respect the sovereignty of Mexico,

He doesn't respect the sovereignty of Panama,

He doesn't respect the sovereignty of Greenland, so...

the Supreme Court should take their defense as a ruse.

Just submit this doc every day as an update ?

I think the judge should ask for more … pics or Garcia’s written documentation of his condition with video

NEW: It’s 5 p.m. ET, and DOJ is officially late on its first daily court-mandated report on the status of Kilmar Abrego Garcia.

But! Abrego Garcia's attorneys have just asked Judge Xinis to order the govt to take these specific steps to return him: storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

Kilmar Abrego Garcia's attorneys also ask Judge Xinis to begin the process of holding the govt in contempt for its defiance of her past orders.

They certainly can make them release them.

This juvenile game is bullshit... and frankly a major crime.

This claim will be litigated as to the ability of the US government to cease paying for the retention of a detainee and the terms under which a detainee must be released.



THERE'S MORE: In a separate filing, the govenrment says its arrangement with El Salvador to house deportees in the notorious CECOT prison is classified.



At worse, the judge will get to review this contract in camera
