You cannot overstate how startling it is to see a politician just say the thing with clarity and poise. No fearful hemming. No overwrought qualifying down til it’s meaningless. No lingering sense that there is a loyalty to a donor class or an ideology of stasis that they’d never admit to.

One for the ICE agent who killed Renee Good, currently nearing $500K, changed the language in its description after @wired.com reached out (but not in the images at the top of the page, oops) @dell.bsky.social reports:

GoFundMe Ignores Own Rules by Hosting a Legal-Defense Fund for the ICE Agent Who Killed Renee Good

The fundraiser for the ICE agent in the Renee Good killing has stayed online in seeming breach of GoFundMe’s own terms of service, prompting questions about selective enforcement.

Mr. Ceesay is a 63-year old man thrown into ICE detention with no warning in February after 14 years of check-ins — where he had a heart attack soon after. Judge Vilardo uses his case to emphasize WHY due process matters, even if deportation is the outcome. It's worth reading this whole thing.

It may be easy to say that we want noncitizens who are in this country illegally removed immediately. It may be popular to say that noncitizens who—at least allegedly—are members of violent gangs should be deported without a hearing. But how do we know that someone is who the arresting officers say he is? How do we
know that a correctly identified noncitizen is a violent gang member and not a family
man working hard to put food on the table of his wife and kids? How can anyone feel
safe from being swept up and put in jail or deported simply based on being targeted by
the government? More to the point: how can we pride ourselves on being a nation of
laws if we are not willing to extend that most fundamental right to all—if we are not at
least willing to ask, before we lock you up, do you have anything to say?
The answer is simple: due process. Everyone—citizen and noncitizen, the
innocent and the guilty—is entitled to that sacred right. Ceesay did not get that here.
And for that reason, even if ICE regulations did not give him the right to an informal
interview, he still would be released.

Since the Trump admin continues to claim Mr. Abrego Garcia is a gang member, I thought I'd take the time to put together a timeline, based on all the documents filed in court, which lays out all the "evidence" the government has ever offered. As you'll find out, there's very little "there" there!

TIMELINE
ABREGO GARCIA GANG ALLEGATIONS - SEPARATING FACT FROM FICTION.

2011-2019: Entry and Early Life: Kilmar Abrego Garcia flees El Salvador to the US at age 16, after M-18 gang members extort his family and threaten to kill him and rape his sisters if they didn’t keep paying. He moves in with his US citizen brother in Maryland and lives there without trouble for years.

March 28, 2019: PGPD Arrest. Kilmar is arrested for loitering outside Home Depot while looking for day labor. A Prince Georges County PD detective grills him about whether he’s a gang member. He denies any involvement. Four hours later, he is transferred to ICE custody, without PGPD charging him for any offense.

April 2019: ICE Allegations: At a bond hearing, ICE claims Kilmar is part of MS-13. They submit one piece of evidence: a “Gang Field Interview Sheet” (GFIS) filled out by the PGPD detective that claims Kilmar is part of MS-13. The GFIS says (1) he was wearing Chicago Bulls gear, and (2) a “confidential informant” allegedly claimed that Kilmar was a ranking member of the “Westerns” clique, which is in Long Island, a place he has never lived in.

Summer 2019: Investigation: Kilmar’s lawyers reach out to PGPD to investigate these claims. They find out that (1) the police did not even file an incident report about his arrest, and (2) the detective that filled out the GFIS has been suspended for an unknown reason.

August 2019: IJ Decision: At his final bond hearing, ICE declines to offer any evidence of gang membership other than what’s in the GFIS. The IJ denies bond, finding that the GFIS is sufficient proof of membership at this time, despite noting its obvious flaws. Kilmar appeals this decision to the Board of Immigration Appeals.

October 2019: Withholding Win: The immigration judge rules that Kilmar is ineligible for asylum because he filed the application too late. But the judge does grant “withholding of removal,” finding that it was “more likely than not” that he would be subject to persecution if deported to El Salvador. A removal order is issued, but with a restriction that the one country he cannot be deported to is El Salvador.

December 2019: BIA Decision: Kilmar appeals the bond decision to the Board of Immigration Appeals. The appeals board declines to find “clear error” in the immigration judge’s decision to rely on the GFIS document. However, he is released anyway because he had won withholding of removal.

2019-2025: Normal Life: Kilmar lives a normal life in Maryland with his U.S. citizen wife, their biological son, and his two stepchildren. With his work permit, he gets a job as a sheet metal worker, joins a union, and raises his family in a DC suburb. He doesn’t get into any trouble with the law.

March 2025: Sent to CECOT: On March 12, 2025, ICE comes to Kilmar’s home and arrests him in front of his children. Three days later he’s transferred to Texas, where, thanks to an “administrative error,” he is put on a plane to El Salvador and sent to CECOT

NEW: The government has filed its status update in the Abrego Garcia case. It says DHS does not have the authority to “forcibly extract an alien from the domestic custody of a foreign sovereign nation” and quotes Bukele’s comments during his meeting with Trump today:

Abrego Garcia appealed. See Declaration of Evan C. Katz, Abrego Garcia v. Noem, No. 8:25-cv-
00951-PX (D. Md. Apr. 13, 2025), ECF No. 64 1 6.
6. Abrego Garcia was ordered removed by an Immigration Judge. He was also granted
withholding of removal by an Immigration Judge. Abrego Garcia is no longer eligible for
withholding of removal because of his membership in MS-13, which is now a designated foreign
terrorist organization. See Declaration of Evan C. Katz, Abrego Garcia v. Noem, No. 8:25-cv-
00951-PX (D. Md. Apr. 13, 2025), ECF No. 6417.
7.1
DHS has established processes for taking steps to remove domestic obstacles that
would otherwise prevent an alien from lawfully entering the United States. DHS does not have
authority to forcibly extract an alien from the domestic custody of a foreign sovereign nation.
I am aware that the President of El Salvador, Nayib Bukele, was in Washington,
D.C. today to meet with President Donald Trump. President Bukele and President Trump held a
bilateral summit at the White House this morning.
9. I understand that, in response to a question regarding Abrego Garcia, President
Bukele said, "I hope you're not suggesting that I smuggle a terrorist into the United States. How can I smuggle a terrorist into the United States? Of course I'm not going to do it. The question is preposterous." A video of the meeting here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QhY79kjmhh4.

Over 650 known cases so far, and most have nothing to do with pro-Palestinian advocacy. The admin seems to be engaged in a breakneck effort to kick out every foreign student who has had even the most minor interaction with the police possible, including for TRAFFIC CITATIONS and JAYWALKING tickets.

Presented without further comment.

“They didn’t ask me for any ID,” Machado said. “I was telling the officer, if I can give him ID, but he said just keep my hands up, not moving. After that, he told me to get out of the car and put the handcuffs on me. And then he went to me and said how did I get into this country and if I was waiting for a court date or if I have any case. And I told him I was an American citizen, and he looked at his other partner like, you know, smiling, like saying, can you believe this guy? Because he asked the other guy, ‘Do you believe him?’”

Machado said he was uncuffed and immediately released after showing his driver’s license.

The two men with him were taken into custody. He does not know why.

Machado said the experience shook his faith in the immigration enforcement efforts of Trump, for whom he voted.

“Because, like I said, I was a Trump supporter,” he said. “I voted for Trump last election, but, because I thought it was going to be the things, you know, like, … just go against criminals, not every Hispanic looking, like, that they will assume that we are all illegals.”

the thing about chasing what you think is public opinion is that if and when things turn you will have made a bunch of statements and taken a bunch of stances that you’ll have to disavow. probably a better strategy just to say what you actually believe and stand by it. anyway, this guy sucks.
