Judge Gives Trump Administration 3 Days To Return Her From El Salvador Prison

GREENBELT, MD-Decrying the deportation as wholly lawless," U.S. District Judge Paula Xinis ruled Monday that the Trump administration had three days to return her to the United States from a Salvadoran prison or face contempt of court charges. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents had no legal basis upon which to send me, a U.S. citizen and federal official, to one of the most notorious prisons in the Western Hemisphere," said Xinis, banging on the walls of her cell in a controversial holding facility in Tecoluca, El Salvador, where she was sent on the basis of an administrative error" that classified the Yale Law School graduate and sitting judge as a suspected member of the MS-13 gang. Therefore, I am calling on the Department of Justice to return me to my home in Maryland at once. Using my finger as a gavel, I hereby decree that you must undo your grave error and send a plane or whatever to help me out. Anyone hear me? Please? I said three days, but I admit I'm having trouble keeping track of time in here. Hello? I said I decree it." At press time, Attorney General Pam Bondi publicly defended ICE's decision to shut Xinis up.
