About this episode
Editor's note: This episode was recorded on April 16, 2025.The Trump administration’s lawlessness is hard to exaggerate—and especially so in the case of Kilmar Abrego Garcia, who the White House admitted was mistakenly deported to a detention center in El Salvador. And even though the Supreme Court ordered the administration to “facilitate” Abrego Garcia’s return to the United States, Trump and his cronies are doubling down.The White House is completely disregarding due process—and it’s a threat to all of us.This week, Jess and Imani get into Abrego Garcia’s nightmarish case, El Salvador and the U.S. government volleying blame on each other to avoid his rightful return, and President Donald Trump’s apparent desire to “deport” American citizens to a foreign detention center.Rewire News Group is a nonprofit media organization, which means that episodes like this one are only made possible with the support of listeners like you!
