Judge rebukes Trump officials for not securing return of wrongly deported man

Administration will have to share under oath how it's trying to get Kilmar Abrego Garcia back to US, says district judge

A federal judge sharply rebuked the Trump administration and scolded officials on Tuesday for taking no steps to secure the return of a man wrongly deported to a notorious prison in El Salvador, as the US supreme court had ordered in a contentious ruling last week.

The US district judge Paula Xinis said that Donald Trump's news conference with El Salvador's president, Nayib Bukele, where the leaders joked that Kilmar Abrego Garcia would not be released, did not count as compliance.
