“The only good Tory is a dead Tory."
THE US Supreme Court has ordered the Trump administration to bring home a man who was mistakenly deported to El Salvador, rejecting the administration’s emergency appeal.
The court acted on Thursday in the case of Maryland resident Kilmar Abrego Garcia, a Salvadoran citizen who had an immigration court order preventing his deportation to his native country over fears that he would face persecution by local gangs.
US District Judge Paula Xinis had ordered Mr Abrego Garcia, now being held in a notorious Salvadoran prison, to be returned to the United States by midnight on Monday. He was deported last month.
