Deportation

Abrego Garcia had been living in the US in Maryland since 2019 legally, note, legally, after fleeing gang violence in El Salvador. The current administration mistakenly (or so they said) deported him recently and sent him to a prison in El Salvador. A Federal Judge ordered he be returned to the US by 11:59 p.m. Monday, April 7.

In court, the Trump administration admitted his deportation was a mistake. Now, they say they cannot get him back and instead, appealed the Federal Judge’s decision.

Small piece by small piece, the legal system is being purposefully attacked and destroyed by the current Administration and a small segment of American society. Ultimately, all Americans will lose their freedoms as the law will become arbitrary based upon the whims of this Administration and their supporters.

Now, you may currently be one of those supporters somehow seeking vengeance of some sort over the rule of law and applaud this. However, mark my words, it will come back to bite you, even if you are white. When the law is arbitrary, rendered by just a few, no one, and I mean no one, is immune to its effects.

You might be laughing now, but, in a country without real rule of law, the laughter will not last forever. And, your freedom will be gone. History has proven this over and over and over. We humans are not nearly as smart as we think we are.
