Kilmar Abrego Garcia - Say His Name.

⚖️ 1. Violation of "Withholding of Removal" Protection (Immigration Law)

What it is: Withholding of removal under 8 U.S.C. § 1231(b)(3) prevents deportation to a country where the individual’s life or freedom would be threatened.

Violation: Abrego Garcia was granted this status in 2019, and yet ICE deported him to El Salvador in 2025, in direct violation of a legally binding protection. This alone constitutes an unlawful removal under immigration law.

📜 2. Violation of the Administrative Procedure Act (APA)

What it is: The APA prohibits arbitrary and capricious government actions and requires procedural due process before agency decisions are altered.

Violation: If the government changed or revoked Abrego’s protected status without proper notice or hearing, it would be a violation of the APA. The government would also have to show the action wasn’t arbitrary, which it seems unable to do convincingly.

🏛️ 3. Violation of the Fifth Amendment Due Process Clause

What it is: The Fifth Amendment guarantees that the government will not deprive anyone of life, liberty, or property without due process of law.

Violation: Deporting someone without a hearing or notice, especially when they have a legal right to remain (as Abrego did), likely constitutes a denial of due process. This is especially egregious because it involved physical removal from U.S. territory and separation from his U.S. citizen family.

🧑‍⚖️ 4. Ignoring a Federal Court Order

What it is: The Constitution vests the judiciary with the power to interpret the law, and federal court rulings are binding on the executive.

Violation: A federal judge ruled the deportation illegal and ordered efforts to return Abrego to the U.S. Ignoring or circumventing this order could be seen as defiance of judicial authority and a breach of the separation of powers.

🕵️ 5. Misuse of the State Secrets Privilege

What it is: The state secrets privilege can be used to withhold information from legal proceedings only when national security is genuinely at risk.

Violation: Courts have strongly suggested that invoking state secrets in this case was not justified, potentially abusing executive privilege to shield an illegal deportation. This undermines transparency and judicial oversight.

👨‍👩‍👧 6. Violation of Family Integrity Rights (Substantive Due Process)

What it is: U.S. law recognizes the right of U.S. citizens to family unity, especially between parents and children.

Violation: Abrego Garcia’s deportation separated him from his U.S. citizen wife and children. Courts have found that such separations, when not justified by legal process or national interest, can violate the constitutional right to family integrity.

🧷 7. Failure to Follow Proper Deportation Procedures

What it is: Deportations require:

A valid removal order,

No legal bar (e.g. asylum or withholding),

Notification and appeal rights.

Violation: Reports suggest Abrego was deported without being told why, possibly without proper paperwork, and possibly without exhausting his legal appeals. That is a procedural violation of immigration rules and due process standards.

📜 8. Equal Protection Concerns

What it is: Though not explicitly in the Fifth Amendment, courts interpret the Due Process Clause to contain equal protection guarantees for immigrants.

Violation: If Abrego was singled out for removal due to nationality or perceived gang affiliation without evidence or process, that could constitute discriminatory enforcement.

🪧 9. Violation of International Obligations

What it is: The U.S. is party to the UN Convention Against Torture (CAT) and other treaties requiring non-refoulement (not sending someone to a country where they face danger).

Violation: By deporting Abrego to a country where he has a credible fear of persecution and where he is now imprisoned in a maximum-security gang facility, the U.S. may have violated international law.

🔁 10. Irreparable Harm Doctrine (Equitable Relief)

What it is: U.S. courts often use the doctrine of irreparable harm to halt deportations while a case is pending.

Violation: ICE’s actions disregarded this principle, deporting him while litigation was ongoing, possibly mooting or undermining the case entirely—a tactic courts frown upon.

This document discusses the opinion of the U.S. Court of Appeals in Abrego-Garcia v. United States, focusing on the issue of whether Miranda warnings were properly administered and whether the defendant’s Fifth Amendment rights were violated. The court explores the legal boundaries of custodial interrogation, the necessity of clearly informing suspects of their rights, and the implications of voluntary versus involuntary confessions. The decision sets an important precedent in understanding how constitutional protections apply during police interrogations and reinforces the standard that confessions obtained without proper Miranda warnings cannot be used against defendants in court.

If any person in this country does not have due process, then no one has due process.

You’re a citizen? Oh yeah? Prove it. Sorry but you’ll need due process for that. Welcome to CECOT.

Hello there Abrego fans.

[polliantics]

Tom Homan tried to say that Kilmar Abrego Garcia got more due process than Laken Riley.

First of all, Laken Riley did not require any due process, she was a victim of a murderer, and she died.

Second of all, this implies we should hold our federal government to the same standard of a murderer.

Third of all, this is trying to use the death of Laken Riley to justify multiple violations of the law.

Fourth of all, Kilmar Abrego Garcia is innocent and the government is spreading constant lies about him being a gang member, and saying that this innocent man spend the rest of his life in a slave labor concentration camp death camp.

Just saying, if you're looking for a line at which to accept our "checks and balances" system is not checking nor balancing anything,

"Government admits to trafficking an innocent man to foreign prison camp, then refuses to get him back" is about as clear cut a line as it gets.

Soooo, just the mere presence of tattoos is grounds for no due process and immediate kidnapping to foreign jail for prison sentence administered by a dictator?

Paging Pete Hegseth!
