"COATES: Tonight, Kilmar Abrego Garcia is out of ICE custody, and New York Attorney General Letitia James remains unindicted. Two headlines that will infuriate the president because of just how significant those losses or setbacks really are. Remember, Abrego Garcia was the Maryland migrant that was wrongfully deported to that notorious prison in El Salvador. The administration was forced to bring him back, then they detained him here in the United States. But today, a judge ordered him to be released after three months in custody because she says his detainment is illegal. The administration vows to appeal."
"KAROLINE LEAVITT, WHITE HOUSE PRESS SECRETARY: The White House, the administration, opposed this activism from a judge who is really acting as a judicial activist, which we've unfortunately seen in many cases across the country. Abrego Garcia is present in our country illegally. He is a proven human trafficker. He is a proven gang member. The administration has evidence of that."
"COATES: And then there's the case where the evidence really just does not seem to be sticking, where embarrassment might be turning into humiliation, because for the second time, a grand jury has declined to indict the New York AG, Letitia James, on the allegations of mortgage fraud."
A second grand jury declined to indict New York Attorney General Letitia James on mortgage fraud allegations, marking consecutive setbacks in related pursuit efforts. Kilmar Abrego Garcia, a Maryland migrant wrongfully deported to El Salvador and subsequently detained upon return, was ordered released by a judge who found his detainment illegal after three months. The administration has said it will appeal the release and has characterized the judge’s action as judicial activism, asserting allegations of criminality against Abrego Garcia. The accumulation of these outcomes is portrayed as significant losses that could provoke a strong reaction from President Trump.
