Well... Both This Thursday, In Maryland -- And On The 16th, In Nashville -- Will Be Barn-Burners... Regarding Abrego Garcia.


The able USDC Judge Xinis held a hearing today. It seems the Noemites are saying (as they said in Nashville, last week) that they think they possess some Supra-Fourteenth Amendment right -- one that allows them. . .to remove Mr. Abrego Garcia (again!) prior to a trial that they CHOSE to bring -- in Nashville.

If (as KBJ said, in her dissent last week) our Constitution is to mean. . . anything -- it is to mean this: we do not abduct humans on our soil prior to trial. Ever. Not where WE'VE already chosen to put them on trial (as Noem / Miller / Rubio / Trump have, here). Damn. Here's the full text of it -- and the operative parts of paragraphs one and two:

. . .For the reasons stated on the record during today’s motions hearing, and in connection with Plaintiffs’ Emergency Motion (ECF No. 203), it is hereby ORDERED that:

1. Defendants shall designate one or more individuals who have personal knowledge, or will acquire such knowledge based on information reasonably available to Defendants, to testify on their behalf regarding the legal bases for their intended detention of Kilmar Abrego Garcia (“Abrego Garcia”) and anticipated efforts to remove him to a third country or to seek termination of his withholding of removal to El Salvador, if he is released from U.S. Marshal custody in United States v. Abrego Garcia, No. 3:25-cr-00115 (M.D. Tenn.). The testimony shall address, among other topics, the asserted lawful bases for detention, the nature and timing of any notice to be provided to Abrego Garcia, the location of any proposed custody or transfer, and the procedural steps Defendants intend to pursue. . . .

2. The Court will hold a hearing on Thursday, July 10, 2025, at 1:00 PM, during which the designated representative(s) shall appear for sworn testimony and be subject to examination by Plaintiffs, Defendants, and the Court. By no later than 9:00 AM on the same day, Defendants shall advise the Court and Plaintiffs as to whom they expect to call as witnesses. . . .

So Ordered: July 7, 2025 | /s/ Hon. Paula Xinis | United States District Judge


These monsters wallow daily in an egregious sty of befouled pig-slop. Time to clean the pen -- come next Tuesday. Damn.
