2. The Trump administration has acknowledged in court filings that Abrego Garcia was deported by mistake. Abrego Garcia was sent to El Salvador's so-called Terrorism Confinement Center on March 15 despite an order protecting him from deportation. Do you think the U.S. government should be responsible for correcting deportation errors, even after someone has left the country?
3. The Trump administration has deported hundreds of Venezuelans to El Salvador under the 1798 Alien Enemies Act. The act allows the U.S. government to detain or deport non-citizens from countries it is at war with, without a trial. How do you feel about the U.S. using a centuries-old wartime law to justify deportations today?
4. Trump hosted Bukele at the White House, encouraging him to build more prisons to house criminals deported from the U.S. "Homegrown criminals are next. Homegrowns are next. The homegrowns," Trump told Bukele, confirming that he wants to deport American citizens, a move that would violate the Constitution. Does hearing Trump say this concern you?
5. While the Supreme Court confirmed his deportation was illegal and said his case should proceed as if he'd never left, the Trump administration claims "facilitate" only means removing U.S. barriers, not ensuring his actual return—arguing they've done their part since El Salvador refuses to release him. Do you think the U.S. government should be doing more to bring García back?
