The White House has dug in on its refusal to return a man who US officials have acknowledged was wrongly deported last month from Maryland to an El Salvador mega-prison.
Press secretary Karoline Leavitt doubled down on accusations that Salvadoran national Kilmar Ábrego García was a member of the MS-13 gang, which his lawyer denies.
Leavitt also accused the 29-year-old of domestic violence, citing records showing his US citizen wife once filed a protective order against him.
A Maryland judge has ordered President Donald Trump’s administration to bring Mr Ábrego García back to the US. But El Salvador President Nayib Bukele said on a visit to the White House this week that he did not “have the power” to return him.
Not a billionaire, that’s for sure. Him being so sensitive about it and never wanting to appear less than that, proves it, and it’s been the case for decades.
He definitely wasn’t in term 1, but all the grifts and that stupid meme coin likely put him over the threshold.
That assumes he didn’t need all that to pay back Russian debts immediately.
I wouldn’t be surprised if 20 years from now we find out that Trump money directly funded the continued Russian invasion of Ukraine.
