Trump’s deportation schedule occupies the lead center
President Donald Trump and the Republican Party face renewed pressure from the courts, democrats and members of the public on the US government deporting Maryland’s man by prison in El Salvador.
Below are the latest developments:
In the courts: The judge, who heads the Kilmar Abrago Garcia case, suggested that she was weighing contempt for the Trump administration, Gary Grombash and Dar Gregory.
The American boycott judge, Paula Xinis, ordered the administration to provide evidence about the steps she took to facilitate the return of Abu Garcia, as she ordered, saying that the government has shown her “nothing” yet.
Democratic action plan: Democratic lawmakers say they are ready to go to El Salvador to search for the release of Abu Garcia, a plan that gained a jacket after the country’s president said during a visit to the White House on Monday that he would not return the man to the United States, Megan Leibitz and Frank Thorp.
Senator Chris Van Holin, DMD, sent a message on Monday to the Ambassador of El Salvador in the United States asking for a meeting with the president of the country, Nayeb Bokil, who said in his meeting with Trump later in the day that he “of course” will not return Abigo Garcia to the United States
“He will travel to El Salvador this week to verify his condition and discuss his launch.”
The idea obtained support from many Democratic lawmakers, including actors Maxwell Frost of Florida and Yasamin Ansari from Arizona, who said they were ready to join Van Holin on the trip.
Senator Dick Dorbin from Illinois, the largest Democrat in the Judicial Committee, also sought to request pressure on Republicans.
“It is time for my Republican colleagues to advance,” he said in a statement. “You can no longer stay silent in the face of a constitutional crisis. You must join the Democrats in responding to this madness and calling for the return of Mr. Austro Garcia to the United States immediately.”
City Hall heat: The Senator faced the Republican Party, Chuck Grasli, a decline in a municipal hall in southeast of Iowa due to the deportation of Abu Garcia, according to Kate Santalez reports.
The attendees began to scream “legal procedures!” In Grasley after he said he would not return Aberigo Garcia because this is “not a power of Congress.” After more screaming, Grassley blamed the President of El Salvador, saying that he was “not subject to the Supreme Court.”
Zoom: Trump administration officials are pushing migrants to leave the United States under their will, or “self -deportation”, and the number of people who deport the internal part of the country remains stagnant, less than the mass deportation vision promised by President Julia Ainsley.
More than 1,2300 immigrants and customs immigrants were deported from March 1 to March 28, which is slightly less than 12,700 people who were deported during the same period last year, according to ICE data obtained by NBC News. About 11,000 people were deported in February.

The obstacles face Kamala Harris in an attempt to return
Written by Steve Cornki
The possibility that Kamala Harris will seek a quick return in the California Governor’s race next year.
Since leaving the position, Harris camp indicated its interest in potential nomination. Two weeks ago, the former vice president a A letter in its original state For advertising, “I don’t go anywhere.” and recently Opinion polls Suggest Democratic voters in the country maintain positive feelings towards it.
Harris’s final decision is a major variable for national Democrats, because she will also be a logical candidate for the presidential nomination of the year 2028. In “Meet the Press” on Sunday, Senator Corrie Baker, a possible presidential candidate himself, gathered questions about Harris’s White House offer.
Between the two options, the governor of California seems to be the most powerful goal of Harris, given her familiarity with voters and overwhelming democracy in the state. Among the Democratic voters, opinion polls show that it will be the best choice at the present time, but the field is still formed and recognition of names is a major factor.
Another open statute of the state adds another variable. All candidates are running in the same vote regardless of partisan affiliation, as the best votes advance to the general elections. This raises the possibility that if Harris advances to a general elections for the California ruler, she may have to confront a democratic colleague.
In theory, this may be a source of concern against a candidate like Rick Carroso, a wealthy businessman who seeks Los Angeles Mayor in 2022 through a campaign that confirmed crime, displacement and quality of cases. Former Republic, Caroso Be In the wake of the destroyed fires for this winter and can like the voters on both sides of the corridor – if it will run and reach the general elections.
There is also some uncomfortable date here for Harris, who will not be the first former vice president to lose a presidential race to circumvent and search for the best job in California. Richard Nixon was a member of the Senate and a member of the California Congress before it became No. 2.
After losing a slight difference to John F. Kennedy in the race to succeed Ike, Nixon threw himself in the 1962 California Ruler Race. July 1961 his poll found 16 points in the future From the current Democrat, Becun is. Nixon saw it as an opportunity to win the board of directors before running for the presidency again in 1964, but those early feelings of voters launched the way to the return of Brown, who defeated Nixon with 6 points.
Since then, two other deputies have sought to revive their career after losing the White House bids. Humbert Humphrey, who was lost by Vice President Lindon Johnson in front of Nixon in 1968, won the American Senate seat in Minnesota in 1970. Like Nixon in California, Humphrey was still dreaming of the presidency, but he was an exciting figure in Minnesota and the result was not in doubt.
Minnesota was also the right place for Walter Mondel’s short -short efforts in 2002. The former Vice President, Ronald Reagan, was crushed in the 1984 presidential elections, as an emergency candidate after the death of Senator Paul Wilston in a plane crash. Mondel entered the race a week before the election day and lost tight to Republican Coleman.
