Kilmar Abrego Garcia, the Salvadoran national at the center of a high-stakes immigration scandal, is back in the U.S. to face federal charges. After his "mistaken" deportation under the Trump administration, Garcia's return was forced by a Supreme Court order, triggering political shockwaves. Trump calls him a "horrible man" and defends his immigration hardline, while critics accuse the administration of lawless stonewalling and civil rights violations. Attorney General Pam Bondi reveals explosive new details about Garcia’s alleged migrant smuggling empire, linked to deaths, weapons trafficking, and MS-13.

JD Vance’s old campaign plane, famously dubbed “Trump Force Two,” has taken a new route—now serving as a deportation aircraft for ICE. The Boeing 737, once used to court donors during the 2024 campaign, has since April flown at least 16 deportation missions to Mexico and Central America, confirmed by immigrant advocates and media. Registered to a Missouri company, the plane previously moved over 500 migrants on ICE flights in 2018. DHS declined to comment on operational details citing security concerns.
