'Astonishing': Critics aghast as Trump DOJ essentially tells judge to 'pound sand'
U.S. District Judge Paula Xinis ruled Friday that Kilmar Abrego Garcia's deportation was illegal and unconstitutional. Garcia was deported despite a 2019 court order protecting him from deportation to El Salvador due to fears of persecution. The judge ordered that Garcia be returned by 11:59 p.m. on Monday.
We suggest the Judge contact President [Nayib] Bukele because we are unaware of the judge having jurisdiction or authority over the country of El Salvador," Karoline Leavitt, the White House press secretary, told media outlets in a statement.

Yes this is the crossing of the Rubicon in our America and it it as significant for us now as that crossing in Rome a long time ago.
