Do you consider a further 4-day delay as requested by the DOJ to be "reasonable" given the prior events in this case?
For example, in the Supreme Court ruling Justic Sotomayor included the following statement:
"The United States Government arrested Kilmar Ar-mando Abrego Garcia in Maryland and flew him to a “terrorism confinement center” in El Salvador, where he has been detained for 26 days and counting. To this day, the Government has cited no basis in law for Abrego Garcia’s warrantless arrest, his removal to El Salvador, or his confinement in a Salvadoran prison. "
So:
* Warrant-less arrest
* Government admitted it was in error
* 4 weeks in a foreign jail
And it's OK for the DOJ to say "we want 4 more days" to develop a plan that you asked us to start developing more than a week ago?
- ty6853 2y agoIt's not just 4 days for a plan. They want 4 more days to even say where he is. They refused last session to disclose it and said they need more time to figure it out. They don't know where his (living?) body is.
- s1artibartfast 2y agoI don't know enough details about to say how long is reasonable to collect facts and develop a plan. If I had to guess, it would be possible. It is an extraordinary and unprecedented situation, and I'm not sure what the SCOTUS decision requires because the situation is such a mix of diplomacy and DOJ actions. Does the head of ICE just call the president of el salvador? Does the order require DJT to do it? What if Bukele says "no"? Either way, from a constitutional perspective there is a big difference between the executive saying they can't do something and flat out refusing.
