(15,366 posts)Is there anything there or just made-up bull crap?

(6,975 posts).... it isn't made up crap. They have about six "Coconspirators" who seem to have ratted him out.
But that's OK. He gets his day in court, and, whatever the result, due process and the rule of law stand.

Sounds to me that this was a side gig. Probably pays well. He put in the work and time. It is illegal.
Not an excuse.

Don't like the "smuggling charges" bullshit they came up with AFTER THE FACT, but at least he is getting his due process.

(141,005 posts)With all the power of the presidency and department of Justice, they're going to crucify Mr. Garcia.
These are evil, wicked people.

TomSlick
(12,879 posts)With all the notoriety that Bondi and other Taco minions have created, a good argument can be made that Garcia cannot receive a fair trial.
I am also skeptical about the indictment itself. I wouldn't believe Bondi if she said grass is green.
There is also a reason that a career Deputy US Attorney resigned when the indictment came down.
Judges and juries don't like criminal cases that smell like rancid tuna.

mucholderthandirt
(1,753 posts)This can happen to anyone, if you speak out against the government, and just gets "disappeared", with no recourse. What would happen to many of us then? Gone, never to be seen or heard of again, subjected to who knows what abuse. All because a crazy man doesn't like you. Or your race. Or your ethnic background. Or your political beliefs. Or your religion. Or your gender. Or sexual preference. Or your age.
Where does it stop, if we don't stop this now? It's not just for the immigrants, legal or otherwise, it's for us all. It's not just for America, it's for democracies everywhere. Make sure people can't just do whatever they want, and call it their right because they have a "mandate" that doesn't exist.

Abrego Garciaâs lawyers argue Maryland case is not over until government is âheld accountableâ
— IL Valley Connected (@ilvalleyconnected.bsky.social) 2025-06-09T16:35:08.882Z
https://abcnews.go.com/US/abrego-garcias-lawyers-argue-maryland-case-government-held/story?id=122652258&cid=social_twitter_abcnp
The filing, on Sunday, came two days after Abrego Garcia was brought back to the U.S. from his native El Salvador to face criminal charges in Tennessee, following a series of court battles in which the Trump administration repeatedly said it was unable to bring him back.
In April, U.S. District Judge Paula Xinis in Maryland ordered the Trump administration to facilitate Abrego Garcia's return to the United States after he was deported in March to El Salvador's CECOT mega-prison -- despite a 2019 court order barring his deportation to that country due to fear of persecution -- based on the Trump administration's claimed that he was a member of the criminal gang MS-13, which his wife and attorneys deny......
In Sunday's filing, Abrego Garcia's attorneys said Maryland case it not over until the government is "held accountable" for "its blatant, willful, and persistent violations of court orders at excruciating cost to Abrego Garcia and his family." They argued that, despite his return, the case is "not moot" because the court continues to have a role "to ensure that [Abrego Garcia's] case is handled as it would have been had he not been improperly sent to El Salvador."
The lawyers said the Trump administration "has acted not just in contempt of multiple court orders but with open defiance towards its coequal branch of government, the judiciary."
