While preparing for the case, Reuveni sought guidance from his superiors on what claims he could make based on DOJ evidence. He was instructed to tell the judge that Abrego Garcia was a “verified member” of the gang MS-13, and that he wasn’t in any immediate danger while detained at the Salvadoran mega-prison, CECOT, although the DOJ had no evidence to support either claim. Reuveni was also warned not to verbally mention that the deportation was a mistake, as the admission was buried at the bottom of a previous court filing.
“Text messages, email exchanges, and documents show that the Department of Justice misled a federal court and disregarded a court order. Mr. Bove spearheaded this effort, which demanded attorneys violate their ethical duty of candor to the court,” US Sen. Dick Durbin (D-IL) said in a statement. “This is a declaration of defiance of our courts at the highest level of our government.”
Yup, just like they “found” all that evidence on Luigi… after the cop left with the bag and came back
If Luigi didn’t do it, why do people like him so much?
Whether he did it or not doesn’t really matter. He’s the face of it now so people are going to rally behind him. Plus, his treatment has been horrific regardless of his guilt
The apparent abuse of the governments power and how he handled the whole show so far makes him a hero, regardless of whether he did anything or not.
What is sad about it though is that most people think that making memes and sharing them is enough to honor that. The US should have had mass protests demanding the oligarchs to hand over all the money they have robbed off the people unless they want the people to take it back.
Because the real assassin didn’t want the attention, and real heroes tend to have mysteriously short lifespans.
Letting a fall guy enjoy the fame and either prison time or exoneration gives our real hero a lot of headstart on disappearing and becoming someone else.
Halloween’s gonna be lit this year.
That sounds a lot like a lot crimes.
It’s not crimes if the Trump regime commits them.
just sparkling treason
Sounds like more MAGA lawyers need to be disbarred.
More like the DOJ needs to be turned upside down and all the criminals in it put behind bars for a long time.
Who cares if the DOJ is LITERALLY Lying to the Court?
-Law and Order Republicans who claim ALL IMMIGRANTS SHOULD BE DEPORTED because they Probably Committed a Crime or something!
Here’s a question for American Lemmy folks.
For those of you without a passport - where is your birth certificate? Does it list your parents’ names? That piece of paper is all that proves you’re a citizen. Lost it? Welcome to being undocumented.
It’s not like these people give a shit about the courts or reality. You can be “undocumented” and time they decide so. Maybe you can prove otherwise in court, maybe you can’t. Either way you’re already gulaged.
America is rotten to its core.
Always has been, they just stopped polishing the turd.
I just did a quick google and couldn’t find a second source from a known organization.
Not saying it didn’t happen, just saying some of all of this may be misleading or might be inaccurate.
The links in the article are directly to a Senate Judiciary Committee report. Presumably links to the primary source of information are more accurate than secondary reporting from an alternate source, especially considering that the GQP is running the show.
It has links to primary sources from the Senate itself, but there are other sources talking about it.

I hope you’re not in charge of anything important at your job
