The Bravery of Kilmar Ábrego García vs. the Barbarism of Donald Trump

Baltimore– Monday at 6:30 am amHundreds of people gathered outside the ice field in Baltimore to be there with Kilmar Ábrego García and his family when he entered the building to deal with almost certain federal detention. The titles say that Ábrego García will probably be “expelled”, but that is not what it should be called. The Trump administration is trying to remove Ábrego García as part of a human traffic operation in which it pays countries with atrocious human rights registers to incarcerate people who had been American immigrants. He wants to send Ábrego García – born in Salvador, living in Temple Hills, Maryland –in Uganda, where he could be imprisoned indefinitely, tortured, and God knows what else.

The “crime” of ábrego García, we must remember, was not at all a crime. The Ministry of Justice Trump admitted to the court that he had imprisoned him and sent him to a prison in El Salvadoran-Labor due to an “administrative error”. The judge was dismayed, in particular that Ábrego García – a union worker legally in the United States – was sent to be brutalized in Salvador without regular procedure, and the judge insisted that he was brought back to his family. It was Mars, and Ábrego García has been in hell since. Ábrego García does not suffer because of everything he has done. He suffers because the autocratic prospects of Trump’s regime are defined by the idea that it cannot make any mistakes. The great chief, and by extension his hacks servilely faithful, must be infallible. Consequently, in the affair of Ábrego García, the person dismissed by the Ministry of Justice was not the one who committed “administrative error”, but the lawyer, Erez Reuveni, who admitted it to the court. Think about it: Trump administration dismissed a lawyer for the Ministry of Justice for not having lied to a judge.

Trump’s prosecutor general, Pam Bondi, the Christian of the law and the cross -order which authorizes agreements with children’s predators to protect his boss, simply rejects the regular procedure as an invited constitutional right. After all, if people always have a regular procedure, he draws up the mass trafficking plan of the administration. If Ábrego García was to be released, this would legitimize the concerns of the judge and The former Bondi / Trump immigration lawyerRebeni, this regular procedure had been refused.

The case of the regime is a marriage between lazy incompetence and legalized barbarism. First of all, he said that Ábrego García was in the MS-13 gang because he was a fan of Chicago Bulls. When this argument collapsed, he said that Ábrego García was a trafficker of human beings. (Accusing other people of what she does have become so tired at this stage.) Then Trump officials said he was a women’s attacker – a charge of rejecting by his wife – and we were supposed to take seriously that an administration stacked with alleged rapists really cares about the safety of women, but this statement has also collapsed. Then, the accusation led undocumented people through the state lines. This is what wins you in Uganda. Normalizing cruelties – and white nativist nationalism – is interest. If they can normalize speech like that of Balding, a 31 -year -old “youth leader” Charlie Kirk, who called blacks and browns living in cities “cockroaches” to support a military occupation of Chicago, then the battle is mainly won. (Having Kirk as a special guest of Chicago Cubs last week – as it is only another celebrity – so that this row nativist bigotist seems ordinary and endangers a lot of their own players. Clearly, the owner of the Cubs, Tomricketts – A boss of the Gop of Dark Money – does not care.)

Faced with this army of cowards is Kilmar Ábrego García. The Trump administration offered an agreement to Ábrego García where he could be expelled to Costa Rica with the promise not to serve any prison sentence. He said no and risks any – indefinite incarceration in Uganda! – to defend those who cannot defend themselves. This is particularly poignant because a judge released him only four days ago to wait for the ice conviction. After months to be in a prison in El Salvadoran Slave-Labor and a Tennessee detention center, Ábrego García had four days with his wife and children before being kidnapped. This judge had in fact held it in Tennessee prison to prevent the ice from catching it. It was a legal protection guard against our own illegal government.

Before entering the courthouse, flanked by his family, his union, local politicians and hundreds of community members, Ábrego García addressed the crowd: “Thank you to my wife, Jennifer, my family, my union, casa, my house away from home and all of you. You have filled me with gratitude and you filled me with hope. Happiness is to be with my family. When I was detained, I thought of going to the park with my family or on a trampoline with my children. These moments give me hope in this fight. For all families who have been separated or are threatened with separation, this administration has given us sorrow. But God is with us, will never leave us and bring justice. With our community by our side, love will triumph. Never lose hope. We are all family. Regardless of what is happening during my ice recording, please promise that you will take, resist, resist, fight, love and continue to demand freedom.“”

Then ábrego García entered the building, flanked by his lawyer and his family. Meanwhile, ice agents looked down with sufficiency from the top of the stairs to the crowd of people. It did not take long before the word came out that the expected had taken place: an authoritarian and weak administration petrified of the weak air had put Ábrego García in the chains.

They want to send the Kilmar Ábrego García to Uganda for no other reason that it endangers their nativist project to treat it as a human being and not “a cockroach”. Let the last word go to the wife of ábrégo García, Jennifer Vasquez Sura, who accompanied her in the establishment. The ice brigade that rines around her husband was clearly chosen for cameras. They were all white, tattooed and so bulky that their muscles had swallowed their neck. Vasquez Sura looked at these men twice its size and said, “Tonight, when you look at your family or look at your children, think of the fact that today you have kidnapped my husband and keep him away from us.”

These shameful tracks did not meet his eyes, showing no heart and without spine to go with their lack of neck. Vasquez Sura showed us real courage. Now it’s our turn. We have to fight Trump’s human traffic diagram for her, for Ábrego García, and for all the people of our communities who could be forcibly put in a plane and sent to a non -disclosed place.
