“Properly, he’s within the custody of El Salvador; he’s an El Salvadoran nationwide,” Homan replied. “El Salvador has him in custody…The El Salvadoran president has made it clear he’s not going to launch him.”
“The DOJ goes to battle this out…The courts will resolve what the following steps shall be,” he continued.
Undeterred, Collins introduced up the 2019 immigration decide’s ruling, conveniently ‘forgetting’ a number of information have modified, together with El Salvador’s crime fee and the truth that Abrego Garcia has since been designated a terrorist.
“Although it was an immigration decide that mentioned the one place he can’t go is El Salvador, he might have been deported anyplace else…” Collins protested earlier than Homan rapidly interjected.
He proceeded to close the CNN hack down utterly.
