A US judge ruled on April 4 that the Trump administration must return a Maryland man deported to El Salvador back to the United States within three days. The administration has maintained that the Salvadorian migrant was "a member of the MS-13 gang" responsible for heinous crimes in the country.

00:00And mercy more than life, America, America, God shed his grace on thee.
00:29I want to say thank you to everyone that has helped us, that has supported us in fighting
00:44this and we will continue fighting for Kilmar, for my husband.
00:49Judge Zinnes granted the preliminary injunction and ordered that Kilmar Albrego Garcia be
00:54brought back to the United States by 1159 p.m. on Monday.
01:03She found that the government did not dispute that there was no legal basis whatsoever for
01:06his deportation.
01:09She found that the government's arguments that she was powerless to order him brought
01:13back to the United States were without legal merit.
01:17And she found that he was suffering irreparable harm with every day that goes by while he's
01:22separated from his family and while he's detained under such harsh conditions in the
01:26infamous Seacott prison.
01:28Plenty of tweets, plenty of White House press conferences, but no actual steps with the
01:34government of El Salvador to take it right, no actual steps to bring him back, and no
01:39actual steps to even communicate or provide documents to the lawyer who they sent into
01:42court to defend their actions.
01:45Hello everybody.
01:50Good afternoon.
01:51How are we?
01:52Good.
01:53Good to see you all.
01:54First of all, the error that you are referring to was a clerical error.
01:57It was an administrative error.
01:58The administration maintains the position that this individual who was deported to El
02:02Salvador and will not be returning to our country was a member of the brutal and vicious
02:08MS-13 gang.
02:10That is fact number one.
02:11Fact number two, we also have credible intelligence proving that this individual was involved
02:16in human trafficking.
02:17And fact number three, this individual was a member, actually a leader of the brutal
02:22MS-13 gang, which this president has designated as a foreign terrorist organization.
02:27Fact number four is that foreign terrorists do not have legal protections in the United
02:31States of America anymore, and it is within the president's executive authority and power
02:35to deport these heinous individuals from American communities.
02:39It is a promise he campaigned on.
02:40It is a promise he is keeping.
02:41The vice president said he was a convicted member of MS-13.
02:45What evidence is there to back that up?
02:48There's a lot of evidence.
02:49And the Department of Homeland Security and ICE have that evidence, and I saw it this
02:52morning.
02:53What do we want?
02:54Justice for Gilmore!
02:55When do we want it?
02:56Now!
02:57Please.
