President Donald Trump’s deputies say they don’t have the authority to make the National Government of El Salvador return an illegal migrant deported to the United States.
“Federal courts have no authority to direct the executive branch that performs foreign relations in a particular way, or interact with a foreign sovereign in a certain way,” Trump agents said to a federal court in Maryland on Sunday.
The presentation is part of the legal battle between Trump’s immigration officials and elite lawyers who are using the case of a citizen of El Salvador Deported, Kilmar Abrego García.
Lawyers in favor of migration argue that Abrego García was illegally deported and should be returned to the United States. Demand is part of the legal campaign of pro -migration groups backed by elite that seek to delay and interrupt the promise of Trump’s campaign to deport millions of illegal migrants.
The lawyers are now asking the judge to keep the lawyers of the Department of Justice in contempt of the Court if they do not return Abrego García to the United States.
But Trump’s lawyers say that the judge does not have the authority to penalize federal officials.
They cited the April 10 ruling of the United States Supreme Court that he told the judge to supervise the case to respect the president’s only control over the foreign policy of the nation. “The relief requested by the plaintiffs is inconsistent with the instruction of the Supreme Court that requires that this court respect the authority of article II of the President to administer foreign policy,” government lawyers wrote.
“That is the ‘exclusive power of the president as the only body of the federal government in the field of international relations,” they added.
Immigration deputies of the White House are working closely with the Government of El Salvador. The president of the country Nayib Bukele has a group to accept MS -13 migrants, as well as migrants from other countries, such as Venezuela and China.
Bukele is expected to visit Trump in the White House on April 14 and he is likely that heavy questions from the pro -immigrant media.
However, the Administration confirmed on Saturday that Abbrega Garcia is arrested in El Salvador:
I have understood based on official reports of our Embassy in San Salvador that Abrego García is currently being held at the Terrorism Confinement Center in El Salvador. He is alive and sure in that installation. He is arrested in accordance with the sovereign domestic authority of El Salvador.
The defense of the administration of his authority in the application of the Immigration Law is apparently angry the judge. The hill Reported:
The United States District Judge, Paula Xinis, ventured into the Department of Justice at a Friday hearing for refusing to fulfill his order to obtain more information about a man deported by mistake to El Salvador, and how the government seeks its return.
“Have you done something?” The American district judge Paula Xinis, who appears frustrated, attached deputy attorney general, Drew Design.
“His honor, I have no personal knowledge,” Reign replied.
“Ok, then they have not done anything,” Xinis replied.
