STATEMENT
This case is one of one. It presents the "extraordinary circumstances" of the
Government conceding that it erred in removing Kilmar Armando Abrego Garcia "to a
foreign country for which he was not eligible for removal." Abrego Garcia v. Noem, No.
25-1345, 2025 WL 1021113, at *6 (4th Cir. Apr. 7, 2025) (Wilkinson, J. concurring).
The Government knew about the court order prohibiting Abrego Garcia's removal to
El Salvador, and admits that removing him in violation of that order was an
"administrative error." Id. at *1 (Thacker, J., with King, J., concurring). Abrego Garcia
has never been charged with a crime, in any country. He is not wanted by the Government of El Salvador. He sits in a foreign prison solely at the behest of the
United States, as the product of a Kafka-esque mistake.
The Government "can—and does-return wrongfully removed migrants as a
matter of course," id. at *4 (citing Nken v. Holder, 556 U.S. 418, 435 (2009) (noting that removed individuals "can be afforded effective relief by facilitation of their
return")). The district court's order instructing the Government to facilitate Abrego Garcia's return is routine. See Abrego Garcia, 2025 WL 1021113, at *4 n. 7 (Thacker,
J., with King, J., concurring) (collecting cases). It does not implicate foreign policy or even domestic immigration policy in any case. The United States has never claimed
that it is powerless to correct its error and before today, it did not contend that doing
so would cause it any harm. That is because the only one harmed by the current state
of affairs is Abrego Garcia.
The Government is unlikely to succeed on the merits of the case. Its application
to this Court is built on a series of strawmen: first, that ordering the Government to

MMR vaccine doesn’t just prevent measles, mumps, and rubella. It also prevents RFK Jr. from showing up at your child’s funeral to exploit your grief at your most vulnerable moment.

It may not be cool or hip in some circles, but we legitimately do need a massive amount of people to run for office.

Flood the school boards, councils, county seats, state legislatures, Congress, etc.

Big changes at the top happen when the ground shifts at the bottom. And that can start now.

PROP - PR Over Policy.

Don't confuse them.

He is flooding the zone. He knows that media will cover everything he does. Getting people upset. Which helps give him more coverage of the upset people. All just talking about him.

Dems need to be strategic.

Want a great slogan for midterms?
"If you FAFO and are struggling because of Trump policies, we understand. The Dems are here for you. Tell us how we can help you "

You get the point.

FAFO will be the theme. Be the solution.

I'll summarize the whole podcast genre:

" If you are entertaining, people will listen to you and buy what you are selling. Including politics "

They will not check your background, your education or fact check you

It's a podcast. They are trying to kill time. Entertainment sells.

It’s amazing to me that politicians don’t commit to post first on @bsky.app and to engage with constituents here

THIS is more powerful than CNN , MSNBC, The Post will ever be.

You can broadcast for 9 mins on a declining medium, or engage here and start a real discussion.

Which is more powerful?

I'm sorry but the Dems are ridiculously bad at their Hegspeth questions. IMO, if you want to prove someone is incompetent, you ask them the hardest strategic questions they will have to know to succeed at the job

What a legacy.

Thank you, Mr. President.

I keep thinking about that scene in Wicked when Dr. Dillamond is teaching the history of Animal rights, and somebody in the class whines, "Why don't you teach us history instead of dwelling on the past?" It feels so on the nose right now.

Hey, if there’s light at the end of this funky tunnel, it would be perhaps all of this leads to the end of nonstop election polling for elections. Too many folks, like Trump himself, lean on them like the gospel. Not a fan of that.
