Comment on Man deported to El Salvador will never live back in US, says White House

  He had no valid deportation order. He had a valid judgment from 2019 ordering that he not be deported.

  This is not disputed by the administration. They admitted in court that they violated the asylum order. You have no legitimate basis to be making that claim.

    That is false. He has a deportation order. He just couldn’t be deported to El Salvador. He could be sent anywhere else if they agreed to take him. That’s what is being fought in court.

    The reason he can’t be sent to El Salvador is because of his connections to gangs.

      There was no deportation order. There was a withholding order: and order prohibiting his deportation.

      He could be sent anywhere else if they agreed to take him.

      It is a human rights violation, as well as a violation of US and international law, to “deport” someone to a third party nation. What you are describing is completely unlawful for both the US and the hypothetical third-party nation.

      There was no deportation order. Deportation is a criminal justice matter and can only be ordered by a judge. Trump invoked the alien enemies act specifically so he could repatriate (not deport) “enemy” aliens without involving the courts. He wants to treat immigrants as enemy combatants; invaders that can be dealt with by the military as combatants or POWs rather than as criminal defendants in court. Here, he fucked up because this person already had a withholding order permitting his presence.

        You don’t understand what a withholding order is. It prevents his return to El Salvador. It does not stop a deportation. If a third party agrees to take him; they can send him there.

        Illegal immigrants should be deported. Since this man is tied to gangs, he should have been deported years ago
