Mr. Garcia's Counsel Seeks Contempt -- As Early As Monday Night, April 14 -- For Defying Court Orders, By Noem, Rubio & Trump

For its part, the government would say only (in its required sworn report, on the docket tonight) that he is alive, and secured in the anti-terrorism jail in El Salvador -- with the claim that he is held under the Salvadorans' "sovereign" authority. [That obviously, is complete bunk -- just ask. . . Trump (see below in -- blue).] The Noem-ites said nothing -- about steps being taken (even though they were ordered to do so) to get him home, essentially immediately.

So, Mr. Garcia's lawyers just moved (on a Saturday), for a show cause hearing, for contempt -- since Tangerine 2.0 still pretends he cannot read the plain English ruling of the US Supreme Court. In sum, he "blinks at reality". Judge Xinis is likely headed to holding a contempt hearing next week -- and whichever lawyer who has the misfortune of appearing for Noem next week. . . may go into the can. At least for 24-to-48 hours. Wow. Here's that latest very muscular motion for relief, from these great lawyers for Mr. Abrego Garcia:

. . .Yesterday, President Trump confirmed that the United States has the power to facilitate Abrego Garcia’s release from prison and return to the United States: “If the Supreme Court said, ‘Bring somebody back,’ I would do that.. . . I respect the Supreme Court.”

Of course, that is precisely what the Supreme Court did when it ruled that this Court’s injunction “properly requires the Government to ‘facilitate’ Abrego Garcia’s release from custody in El Salvador and to ensure that his case is handled as it would have been had he not been improperly sent to El Salvador.” Noem et al. v. Abrego Garcia et al., 604 U.S. ____, 2025 WL 1077101, at *1 (Apr. 10, 2025). The Government should be required to comply with the Supreme Court’s order that it “ensure that his case is handled as it would have been had he not been improperly sent to El Salvador,” by taking all available steps to release and return Abrego Garcia to Maryland. . . .

This is going to end badly for Kristi Noem -- and Tangerine, if he doesn't step to it -- and get our guy home. Bank on that. Another written report is due by 5 PM EDT, onto the public federal docket, tomorrow -- Sunday -- from Noem's lawyers, so stay tuned. Onward.
