Abrego Garcia’s mistaken deportation to his home country of El Salvador earlier this year has helped galvanize opposition to President Donald Trump’s immigration policies. His attorneys claim the administration is now manipulating the immigration system in order to punish him for successfully challenging that deportation.
A motion from the government filed in U.S. District Court in Maryland late on Friday says officials have received assurances from Liberia that Abrego Garcia would not face persecution or torture there. Further, it says an immigration officer heard Abrego Garcia’s claims that he feared deportation to the West African nation, but ruled against him.
His attorneys argue in a separate Friday filing that Abrego Garcia has already designated Costa Rica as a country where he is willing to be deported. They claim the government now must send him there. The fact that officials continue to pursue deportation to other countries is evidence that the process is retaliatory and violates due process protections, they argue.
That poor man looks so tired.
Enough is enough!
Can we just not take him into Canada on a “refugee from persecution plea” and settle this?
For that matter, can we just take all the people America is exporting and put them to work as TFWs for a while so they can eat and breathe and walk down the goddamned street?
Keep in mind Costa Rica and him are both ok with him being sent to Costa Rica
BTW Liberia is just a segregated colony of the USA but for some reason Americans are never taught this fact.
They’ve been independent for a while, isn’t it kinda disrespectful to say they’re “just a segregated colony”?
Colonialism never ended. The method of control just switched from hard power to soft power. Instead of shooting you, they’ll demand controlling stakes in your national industries in return for aid programs that turn farmers off their lands and slowly ensure that food availability is entirely dependent on Western charity. Meanwhile, you’ll be paying interest on compensation that the colonizer is demanding you pay in return for your “independence.”

Yeah, fair point. I had a counter I wanted to make, but it sounded more like US apologia than defense of Liberia’s national identity, so I’ll settle with “it’s a tricky subject”, which is hard to disagree with, haha
I mean, you are technically correct that Liberia has nominal independence… but it’s the same kind of correct as saying that the US has full democracy.
You think Liberia is currently a colony?
Go back to school yourself.
I was taught it in AP US History. The capital is named after President Monroe.
Just when you think that this, the worst timeline, had found the human limitation of “stupid”, it seeks to hurl feces into your eye in ever-more-inane and obscene manners, like a caged ape with no outlet for its struggles.
Is this why everything went south after Harambe died? He found heaven vacant, the throne abdicated and the world forsaken, and thus took that high most seat and wept, having no greater spaces to conquer, and so began to hurl reality itself like shit through the bars of heaven?
Ever watched preacher? That’s basically the plot of preacher.
Unfortunately, yes.
its either liberia, darfour, south sodan, or rwanda.
