In Nashville, The Motion To Completely Void Mr. Abrego Garcia's Specious Prosecution By Noem. Et Al., Has Been Docketed: Selective Bad Faith Prosecution.

As the readers well-know, I've spent several days in the past three months, traveling to and from the federal courtrooms in Music City, closely tracking this case, and talking at length with counsel for Mr. Garcia, as well as a few very fair minded Democratic State Reps., there.

It is time. It is time for the able USDC Judge Crenshaw in Nashville to rule that this all is "fruit of a poisonous tree". That this whole matter was cooked up, as a face saving gambit, when the Noemites realized they had zero lawful basis to dump him in an El Salvadoran meat-grinder / hell-hole -- for three months. So do read all 35 pages -- but in a just world, it ought to prevail, later this Fall;

. . .On March 24, Mr. Abrego challenged his unlawful removal to El Salvador, filing a lawsuit against various government officials in the District of Maryland, alleging that his removal violated the Immigration and Nationality Act, 8 U.S.C. § 1231(b)(3)(A), the Due Process Clause of the Fifth Amendment, and the Administrative Procedure Act. (D. Md. Dkt. 1 ¶¶ 72-95). Mr. Abrego also sought a temporary restraining order requiring the government to return him to the United States. (D. Md. Dkt. 2). Even though the government confessed, relatively promptly, that its removal of Mr. Abrego was in error, the government did not take steps to fix its mistake. Instead, in response to his lawsuit -- and to the substantial publicity it received -- the government undertook a wide-ranging and unprecedented retribution campaign against Mr. Abrego. This [Nashville] criminal case is part of that campaign. . . .

Even as some parts of the [federal] government were recognizing that Mr. Abrego’s removal was wrongful, others were beginning to take steps seemingly calculated to deter Mr. Abrego from pursuing his case and calling attention to the government’s errors. On April 1, Vice President J.D. Vance falsely proclaimed that Mr. Abrego “was a convicted MS-13 gang member with no legal right to be here.” [Ed. Note: He's never been charged as MS-13 (let alone "convicted"), and the traffic stop ended without even a warning or a ticket -- and J.D. Vance well knew this. J.D. Vance, the sitting Veep, malignantly lied in public about this man -- a wrongly accused human.] That kicked off the government’s public campaign to get back at Mr. Abrego. . . .

In a word -- deplorable. This is all solely a "retributive" sham-indictment. And, J.D. Vance has disqualified himself from ever seeking any future public office. These lies were willful, they were wanton and were calculated to destroy the reputation of an innocent family man, here lawfully (with papers to prove it!) -- in Maryland, for many years. Onward.
