Part of reality now... constantly hitting refresh on @annabower.bsky.social feed from Judge Xinis' courtroom regarding Kilmar Abrego Garcia, hoping the rule of law will somehow survive in the United States.

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.
Anna Bower@annabower.bsky.social
And that's it. Hearing over. There will be an expedited discovery period, with depositions set to be completed by 4/23.

👉 Judge Xinis seems inclined to hold the Trump administration in contempt of court. 👈
She ordered them to reveal all plans to return Mr. Garcia from El Salvador ASAP.
"Cancel vacation, cancel other appointments" she said to Trump's lawyers. (NYT)

Short hearing, and Xinis was all business. She dismissed. The DOJ objections is already dealt with and said it’s time to move to discovery, which will be very very rapid. DOJ proffered the oval office meeting yesterday; she wants evidence gathered under the evidence rules.

Informative thread on hearings before USDC Judge Xinis in the Abrego Garcia case.
Having made insulting & moronic legal arguments, the Trump Administration will next engage in all manner of evasions in the discovery (including depositions) that the Court has ordered take place during next 2 weeks.

Takeaways from this. Judge Xinis is a saint, Counsel Ensign is a ginormous bag of dicks, and the government is taking the position of Gaslight gaslight gaslight keep gaslighting until people believe what we say is reality.

Anybody betting that Kilmar won't have passed from "an unfortunate medical emergency" before the depositions in judge Xinis' court have been completed?

One common thread in the Abrego Garcia and the JJG cases is DOJ's attorney, Drew Ensign. He was the "grillee" in CJ Boasberg's rule to show cause hearing (JJG). He was before Judge Xinis Tuesday and last Friday (Abrego Garcia).
Will we see work by any caving pro bono'ers?

DOJ's Ensign giving away store in Abrego Garcia hearing.⤵️
He seems to be admitting here diplomatic efforts with El Salvador are within four corners of Judge Xinis's order (per Supreme Court ruling) and fair for court to ask about them.
Removes barriers to compliance and, if no compliance, contempt

Judge Xinis is holding up the Constitution on her shoulders. Thank you!

A federal judge just ordered intensive expedited discovery into Trump’s illegal deportation of Abrego Garcia. The latest:

Xinis' approach has the virtue of staying within SCOTUS' lines, and not turning this into a contest over presidential powers.
Anna Bower@annabower.bsky.social
Xinis: But I'm not there yet. I keep going back to what SCOTUS said was "squarely" in my power and my view that you have not fulfilled the mandate I've issued. Discovery will bear that out, bc the affidavits are insufficient

Judge Xinis should start with Reichminister Stephen Miller b/c from that Oval Office gathering yesterday it's obvious that he's dictating all immigration policy--Not Trump, not Rubio, not Bondi, not Bukele, not Vance, not Elon, & not Noem.

Xinis says she's going to force multiple Trump administration officials to sit for depositions over the next 7 days to confirm whether they're complying with the Supreme Court.

Judge Paula Xinis said at the start of a hearing for Kilmer Abrego Garcia. "We have to give process to both sides, but we're going to move… there will be no tolerance for gamesmanship or grandstanding,"
Xinis ordered the depositions to be completed by April 23.
I pray this man is still alive. 🙏🏾

This. All sorts of this. Judge Xinis ain't having it and is going to get to the bottom of it or collect heads in place of it.
FINALLY a moment where we're not throwing up our hands...

For those who don't speak lawyer, Judge Xinis has just put the US Administration on notice that they have two weeks, and no more, to provide evidence that they have complied in good faith with the court orders. This is the start of the process in bringing contempt of court charges.
Anna Bower@annabower.bsky.social
Xinis: I'll remind everyone here that there are no business hours. It'll be two weeks of "intense" discovery. Once we have record, take it from there. Ensign: Transcript of oval office meeting sets forth evidence consistent w/ federal rules of civil procedure..

🧵 that i think is right on what Xinis is doing
Evan Bernick, a finite mode with a smol hooman and a lorg floof@evanbernick.bsky.social
What Judge Xinis is banking on is that the government does not want to spend two weeks in discovery. Two big things can happen: (1) They just make the call and get him back (2) They spend two weeks creating a public record of their own fuck ups and then get sanctioned

Judge Xinis to DOJ lawyer:
“Cancel vacation. Cancel other appointments. I’m usually pretty good about this in my courtroom, but not this time.”
She also agreed to allow the plaintiffs to depose up to 6 administration officials.
Good first step, but need accountability.
