🇺🇸 Judge Orders Trump Administration to Submit Daily Updates on Mistaken Deportation of Kilmar Abrego Garcia

In a stunning legal rebuke, a federal judge has ordered the Trump administration to provide daily updates regarding the status of Kilmar Abrego Garcia — a Maryland resident who was mistakenly deported to El Salvador despite a Supreme Court ruling protecting him.

🧑‍⚖️ Who is Kilmar Abrego Garcia?

Kilmar Abrego Garcia is a former Salvadoran refugee who fled gang violence in his teenage years and had been living in Maryland for several years. In 2019, a federal immigration judge granted him protection from deportation, recognizing that returning him to El Salvador could be life-threatening

🚨 The Mistaken Deportation

In March 2025, despite his legal protection, Abrego Garcia was wrongfully deported to El Salvador due to what the administration referred to as an "administrative error." Upon his return, he was detained in one of El Salvador’s harshest prisons — the Terrorism Confinement Center — infamous for its inhumane conditions. This deportation defied a clear Supreme Court ruling and led to public outrage and legal action.

⚖️ The Judge’s Response

U.S. District Judge Paula Xinis demanded transparency and accountability from the administration. In her strongly worded ruling, she required that federal officials submit daily reports detailing every effort being made to return Abrego Garcia to the United States. Judge Xinis noted: “The court cannot permit the government to ignore the Constitution or the Supreme Court. Transparency is not optional.”
