An innocently deported man sits in El Salvador’s notorious terrorist prison, while the Trump government openly ignores the decision of the Supreme US Court. The case is developing into a constitutional crisis.
It basically started that even the Trump government itself spoke of an “administrative error”: In March 2025, Kilmar Armando Ábrego García was arrested in the USA without arrest warrant and shipped to El Salvador by plane. As an illegal immigrant, the police officer had fled the United States from violent gangs from violent gangs from violent gangs. The 29-year-old García is now a father of three children he has with an American.
He lived legally with a work permit for around 14 years and without criminal records in Maryland, the neighboring state of Washington, DC García even received judicial deportation because he is at risk in his home country. That was simply ignored.
After his arrest, the man landed as a supposed terrorist in El Salvador in the “Centro de Confinamiento del Terrorismo”, that notorious mass-security prison of President Nayib Bukele. Since then, García has had to persevere there, together with alleged gang members and criminals. His deportation should never have taken place. Not only the Trump government spoke of an error. The Supreme Court, the highest US court, also described the process illegally and asked the government to “enable” the return of García.
Nothing has happened since then. On the contrary: Trump and his team not only let a set deadline spread. Although the supposed mistake has already been admitted, the White House has been spreading again since then that deportation is lawful and García is a terrorist. It quickly ignores the Supreme Court’s decision. The administrative error grows out every further day for a clear constitutional crisis-and the US government does not even try to disguise this. Rather, the impression arises that the error is actually planned arbitrariness.
This became clear on Monday when Donald Trump received the President of El Salvador, Nayib Bukele, in the White House. Surrounded by his own government team and numerous reporters, Trump had his view of García’s case spread.
Trump’s deputy Chief of Staff, right -wing radical Stephen Miller, and his Minister of Justice Pam Bondi lodges over many minutes. They described the García, who was innocent in the mass prison in the mass prison. Miller accused the journalists present that they would like to keep dangerous people in the United States. Trump complained that the reporters asked so much and described them as “sick people”. At the same time, Pam Bondi claimed that it was ultimately the decision El Salvador’s decision to send the man back to the United States.
President Nayib Bukele then gently mocked the reporters’ inquiries whether he was willing to relieve García from prison and bring back to the USA. “The question is absurd,” said Bukele and compared the possible return of the innocent man to the “smuggling of a terrorist” to the United States. “How should I do that?” Asked Bukele ironically. Trump sat next to his compliant counterpart from El Salvador, nodded and grinned. “We are a small country, but if we can help, we will do it,” said Bukele. As is well known, the United States has a problem with crime and terrorism. The man from El Salvador, who describes himself as the “coolest dictator in the world”, senses a business model. The US government pays EL Salvador six million dollars to make the country hundreds of migrants classified as criminically classified in prison.
