RE: Liberals: help me understand the Kilmar Abrego Garcia situation
You are viewing a single comment's thread:
He's married to an American, has a court order stating he should stay in the US, and even Trump's stacked Supreme Court says he should be bringing the dude back.
Republicans constantly want to scream that it's about "following the law" but Trump is not following the law. Innocent until Proven Guilty is one of the most important laws out there.
If he's really here "illegally," which you've poisoned the well by stating multiple times without proof, it should be proven in a trial. If we give that up, Trump can simply deport anyone he wants on his word alone.

it is easy to understand how someone would come to the conclusion that he is an illegal immigrant, because even liberal politicians and outlets are admitting that he entered the country illegally. it is well-documented that he illegally entered the US.
He was however, legally allowed to live and work in the US because of a "withholding of removal" order. This is an important distinction to make but you shouldn't get on someone's case for not knowing all of this because all the media sites are telling half-truths about Cortez' status depending on their particular political leanings.
The right-oriented publications will call him an illegal alien, which technically he was once he entered illegally and even Cortez admits to this being the case. The left-oriented publications will not mention this but instead will call him something like a "Maryland father who immigrated from El Salvador"(but not mention the illegal part) which is ALSO technically true because he is a father and was last living in Maryland.
It is the objective of the media to muddy the waters so it is understandable when people can't see the truth since that truth is intentionally hidden from them.
Thanks for chiming in. I looked a bit further and even though it was tough to figure out what they were actually talking about since the media changes what this actually means depending on what their bias is the Supreme Court 9-0 ruling appears to suggest they agree that he should have been tried in-country (in USA) and not rushed to be removed... yet the conservative media is trying to say that the ruling was supporting what they did. It doesn't seem like that is the case to me.
