Kilmar Ábrego García – who has been thrust into the middle of an acrimonious deportation saga by the second Trump administration – has been detained after reporting to Immigration and Customs Enforcement (Ice) agents in Baltimore on Monday.
“The only reason he was taken into detention was to punish him,” Simon Sandoval-Moshenberg, an attorney representing Ábrego, told a crowd of supporters outside a Baltimore Ice field office on Monday.
The attorney also said his client filed a new lawsuit on Monday morning challenging his potential deportation to Uganda and his current confinement.
i hope this poor guy can hold out the onslaught that’s coming his way.
He’s held on this long, and he’s a household name now. They can’t DO ANYTHING to him without it being international news. Won’t stop them from trying to kill him, though.
when’s the last time you heard from julian assange or luigi?
