Stephen Miller Defends Wrongful Deportation, Trump Considers Sending US Criminals Abroad

White House Stance on Wrongful Deportation

• 📌 Stephen Miller stated the White House will not make new efforts to bring Kilmar Abrego Garcia back to the U.S. after his mistaken deportation.
• 💡 Miller interpreted the Supreme Court order as only requiring assistance if Abrego Garcia were returned, not actively seeking his return.
• ⚠️ Miller further suggested that even if returned, Abrego Garcia would be deported again, rendering further pursuit pointless.

Miller's Views on Immigration and Responsibility

• 🗣️ Miller asserted that once individuals are outside the U.S., their return becomes the responsibility of their host country.
• 🚢 He referred to immigrants as "invaders" and stated it is the U.S.'s responsibility to return them to their origin or another willing country.
• ❓ The administration claims Abrego Garcia is an MS-13 gang member and human trafficker, but has not provided evidence.

Trump's Proposal for Deporting US Criminals

• 🏛️ President Trump is considering sending American criminals to El Salvador, inspired by his success in sending migrants to a prison there.
• 🤝 Trump suggested to President Boule that El Salvador should build more prisons to accommodate U.S. criminals.
• ⚖️ Legal scholars believe this proposal is likely illegal and may violate the Eighth Amendment's prohibition against cruel and unusual punishments.
• 🔒 U.S. prisoners have certain rights that might not be afforded if they were imprisoned overseas.
