President Trump's meeting with El Salvador's Nayib Bukele revolved around the deportation of Kilmar Armando Abrego Garcia, who was mistakenly sent back to a Salvadoran prison despite having protections. The Justice Department labeled the deportation as an 'oversight.' Both Bukele and Trump officials misrepresented facts about Garcia's legal situation. Arrested in 2019 based on dubious allegations of gang affiliation, Garcia faced challenges in immigration court. Experts noted that bond denial does not equate to proven gang membership, underscoring systemic issues in handling such cases.
During his Oval Office meeting with El Salvador President Nayib Bukele, President Trump misled on the case of Kilmar Armando Abrego Garcia, an erroneously deported immigrant.

Abrego Garcia was deported to a mega-prison despite having protections against such deportation, showcasing significant flaws in the immigration process.
