did that State Dept official hear President Trump say yesterday that he was perfectly able to bring Abrego Garcia back to the US?

NEW: A US State Department official tells Judge Xinis that Kilmar Abrego Garcia is alive and being held in the CECOT prison, "detained pursuant to the sovereign, domestic authority of El Salvador" storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

DECLARATION OF MICHAEL G. KOZAK I, Michael G. Kozak, pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1746, declare under penalty of perjury as follows: I am Senior Bureau Official in the Bureau of Western Hemisphere Affairs, United States Department of State. As Senior Bureau Official, I am a member of the Senior Executive Service responsible for, among other things, coordination of the conduct of our diplomatic activities in the countries of the Western Hemisphere. Before that, I was Senior Coordinator for Afghan Refugees in the Bureau of Population, Refugees and Migration of the United States Department of State and have held various other roles in the Department of State since 1971. I am aware that the instant lawsuit has been filed seeking the return of Kilmar Armando Abrego Garcia to the United States from El Salvador. I provide this declaration based on my personal knowledge, reasonable inquiry, and information obtained from other State Department employees.
It is my understanding based on official reporting from our Embassy in San Salvador that Abrego Garcia is currently being held in the Terrorism Confinement Center in El Salvador. He is alive and secure in that facility. He is detained pursuant to the sovereign, domestic authority of El Salvador. I declare under penalty of perjury that the foregoing is true and correct. Executed this 12th day of April 2025. 442- Michael G. Kozak Senior Bureau Official

"The Trump Administration is lying about Abrego Garcia"

Speaking now from El Salvador, Sen. Chris Van Hollen (D-MD) says he was denied access to Kilmar Abrego Garcia by El Salvador leaders. And was denied a phone call to him Van Hollen: "The Trump Administration is lying about Abrego Garcia"

The Trump regime again defies Judge Xinis’ order in the Abrego Garcia case. How long will the federal courts tolerate Trump’s lawless behavior? The courts’ permissiveness endangers the freedom of all of us.

NEW: DOJ doubles down on refusing to follow Judge Xinis's orders. Today's status report contains nothing new. It again fails to provide information about steps they're taking to bring Mr. Abrego back), and arguably violates her command that a declaration be made by someone with personal knowledge.

UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE DISTRICT OF MARYLAND (Greenbelt Division) KILMAR ARMANDO ABREGO GARCIA, et al., Plaintiffs, v. KRISTI NOEM, Secretary of Homeland Security, et al., Defendants No. 8:25-cv-00951-PX Declaration Of Assistant Director Evan C. Katz DECLARATION OF EVAN C. KATZ I, Evan C. Katz, pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1746, declare under penalty of perjury as follows: 1. I am Assistant Director for the Removal Division, within the Department of Homeland Security, U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) Enforcement and Removal Operations (ERO). 2. In this capacity, I am responsible for leading the division, which is composed of ICE Air Operations, International Operations, and Removal Management. I coordinate with the 25 ERO Field Offices to support case management and facilitate the removal of aliens from the United States. I have held this position since December 2023. Before this assignment, I served as the Acting Assistant Director for the Removal Division from January 2023 to November 2023 and Deputy Assistant Director for the Removal Division from January 2015 to December 2022. I have been in service with ICE since 2003 and prior to that, the Legacy Immigration and Naturalization Service since November 1997.
3. I provide this declaration based on my personal knowledge, reasonable inquiry, and information obtained from various records, systems, databases, other Department of Homeland Security (DHS) employees, and information portals maintained and relied upon by DHS in the regular course of business. 4. I am aware that the instant lawsuit has been filed regarding the removal of Kilmer Armando Abrego-Garcia (Abrego-Garcia) to El Salvador. 5. I am aware that after this Court’s preliminary injunction issued, that the Government sought a stay pending appeal from the Fourth Circuit on the same day and ultimately the Supreme Court. On March 7, Chief Justice Roberts issued an administrative stay of that preliminary injunction order. On March 10, the Supreme Court held that “the deadline in the challenged order is no longer effective” and that aspects of this Court’s injunction needed to be clarified before they could become effective. 6. During proceedings in 2019, an immigration judge upheld DHS’s decision not to grant bond, finding that DHS’s determination that he was a member of MS-13 was “trustworthy” and “supported by other evidence,” and noted that Abrego-Garcia “failed to present evidence to rebut that assertion.” The Board of Immigration Appeals upheld the finding when Abrego-Garcia appealed. 7. On March 15, 2025, Abrego-Garcia, a native and citizen of El Salvador, was removed to El Salvador, pursuant to Title 8 of the United States Code. Although Abrego-Garcia has an order of removal issued by an immigration judge, I understand that he should not have been removed to El Salvador because the immigration judge had also granted Abrego-Garcia withholding of removal to El Salvador. However, I also understand that Abrego Garcia is no longer
eligible for withholding of removal because of his membership in MS-13 which is now a designated foreign terrorist organization. 8. I have reviewed the declaration of Mr. Michael Kozak, which was filed in this case yesterday, April 12, 2025. It is my understanding that Defendants have no updates for the Court beyond what was provided yesterday. I declare under penalty of perjury that the foregoing is true and correct. Executed this 13th day of April 2025. ____________________________ Evan C.

My first reaction was one of relief that Abrego Garcia was alive. The second reaction: My government is a terrorist regime that just kidnaps people it doesn't like.

This satisfies part (1) of the order, but does not even take a shot at parts (2) and (3). The order:

Accordingly, it is hereby ORDERED that beginning April 12, 2025, and continuing each day thereafter until further order of the Court, Defendants shall file daily, on or before 5:00 PM ET, a declaration made by an individual with personal knowledge as to any information regarding: (1) the current physical location and custodial status of Abrego Garcia; (2) what steps, if any, Defendants have taken to facilitate his immediate return to the United States; (3) what additional steps Defendants will take, and when, to facilitate his return.

“the Trump administration is paying the government of El Salvador to keep [Abrego Garcia] at CECOT” El Salvador VP

Van Hollen says that he asked the VP of El Salvador why his government continues to hold Abrego Garcia even though he’s not charged with any crime and there’s no evidence that he’s MS-13. “His answer was that the Trump administration is paying the government of El Salvador to keep him at CECOT”

This. The judge basically ordered wellness updates on Abrego Garcia, and we will likely get none. If/When he’s returned home to his family, the Trump administration and Tom “inhuman” Homan won’t want him to talk.

Glenn here This has become very serious, crazy. Trump says he is now the law in USA. He cares nothing of the American constitution, lawyers or the Supreme Court. Trump claims to be the new world order. I feel sorry for Abrego Garcia, his family, the American people,the Ukrainian people. My thoughts

The Vice President of El Salvador admitted the only reason they’re still keeping Abrego Garcia in CECOT is because the Trump administration is paying El Salvador to keep him there

I just met with the Vice President of El Salvador as we fight for the return of Kilmar Abrego Garcia. I’m speaking to the press now with the latest on our efforts. Tune in here:

Trump and his henchmen have no intention of returning Abrego Garcia to the US. They’re even lying about the SCOTUS decision re this matter. At this point, I would have no moral qualms were a benevolent billionaire to finance a covert paramilitary mission to rescue Mr. Garcia from incarceration.

The govt could end all of this by just asking for (and getting) Abrego Garcia back. They want to revisit his 2019 status, that's another judge's job.

Judge Xinis is set to haul the government in front of her bench over the next two weeks and make them explain under oath what they're doing. I know the timeline seems awful given that Kilmar remains locked up. But this is not a case where she can just order him brought back tomorrow, given Bukele.

Glenn here Ttrump refuses to bring back Abrego Garcia from El Salvador against the Supreme Court's order. El Salvador President Bukele said in the oval office he would not return him to America. Trump said he will also deport American citizens who criticize him to Ei Salvador. We have a dictator!
