Trump administration is still resisting the judge's orders in Abrego Garcia deportation case

LOCK THIS FUCKER UP.

The Trump administration on Wednesday continued to resist a federal judge’s orders to produce information about the steps it has taken, if any, to return a Maryland man who was mistakenly deported to El Salvador.

Drew Ensign, a deputy assistant attorney general, filed a sealed motion asking for a stay of the judge’s order to provide sworn testimony and documents about the U.S. government’s efforts to retrieve Kilmar Abrego Garcia.

The request comes just hours after U.S. District Judge Paula Xinis in Maryland had castigated the Trump administration in a written filing on Tuesday for ignoring her orders, obstructing the legal process and acting in “bad faith” by refusing to provide information.
Xinis gave the administration until 6 p.m. Wednesday to produce information.

The White House has instead filed a sealed motion for a stay of seven days of her order. The administration is also requesting relief from providing daily status updates on Abrego Garcia’s status and efforts to return him.
