Not biased bullshit at all right? Completely lying about his legal stats to keep the chuds cheering it on. Typical.

“Abrego Garcia had applied for asylum and similar forms of relief in an attempt to prevent his return to El Salvador, where he feared persecution by Barrio 18. (The attorney who filed that application, Lucia Curiel, did not return calls.) Although the asylum claim proved to be time-barred—aliens are required to bring such claims within a year of entering the country—in October 2019 Judge Jones did grant his request for “withholding of removal” based on his “well-founded” fear of persecution by Barrio 18. The government did not appeal, so Jones’s ruling is now final.”
He was here legally covered under a protected status, as the article explains, for fear of retaliation from a gang in El Salvador that was extorting his family, which is why he came here in the first place…
But it’s so much nicer to hate the brown man we don’t know. Nice to feel superior to “criminals” we know nothing about and just blindly trust what straight up lies the administration tells us. Nuance is dead.
