A U.S. District Court has ordered the Trump administration to facilitate the return of Kilmar Abrego Garcia, a Salvadoran immigrant wrongfully deported to El Salvador. This ruling follows a Supreme Court directive and highlights ongoing tensions between the judiciary and the executive regarding immigration enforcement. The administration claims Garcia is a gang member and refuses to comply with the court's order.
Kilmar Abrego Garcia was deported to El Salvador on March 15, 2025, despite a court order prohibiting his removal. His deportation was part of a broader operation targeting alleged gang members under the Alien Enemies Act. The administration's claims of gang affiliation have been met with skepticism by the courts, leading to legal challenges.
