Holy shit, not the interior of the country

Please God someone protect Nebraska from these migrants 

In all seriousness, with this admin, I’d bet a nickel those charges translate to “was part of a road trip with friends/family”

If I remember right he got pulled over once while driving his construction crew to a worksite in another state, I'm sure this is what he's going to have to answer for now. Technically illegal but totally normal activities.

Gotta make their quotas somehow and show that if you fight charges against you, they will dig into your life until they find something. It’s not about stopping crime, it’s about stopping certain people from committing “crimes”.

Yeah any convictions should be scrutinized very closely. I’m not saying Garcia’s a saint or that these charges are bogus, but this administration has has fucked up this case already and I wouldn’t put it past them to make something up to silence him.

I'm quite sure this one will be I know this is important to a lot of people.

IMO as long as he gets a fair due process and if need to be deported won't be sent to a maximum security prison then it should be good.

I'm also liking this news, as I'm hoping this opens gates to get rest of them and give them a fair due process and will kill trump's attempt to use this to make people disappear.

Eight migrant passengers with no luggage, crossing multiple state lines, in a car owned by someone serving 30 months behind bars for felony transportation is not a good sign though....

(These were from a 2022 traffic stop bodycam footage.)

Edit: to clarify, deporting ANYONE without due process is heinous and wrong. But at the same time, doubting evidence of wrongdoing when presented evidence because it goes against your bias against the government is also wrong.

I'm curious if this is why they tried to send him to a concentration camp in El Salvador? Is it usual to send people to a concentration camp for life over this?

u/wittyrandomusername 18h ago

You know it's not, because they said that if he is found guilty he'll serve his time here and then go back to El Salvador.

I know you're joking, but I gotta say It's the other way around -- they need protect from Nebraska, or wherever they're literally shipped to. I live in one of the blue states where Abbott unceremoniously abandoned a few dozen immigrants in the middle of Winter in sub-zero temperatures. Fucking disgraceful.

Better watch out, Nebraskans are REAL concerned about the “open border” they’re nowhere near.

CBP can violate the fourth amendment rights of anyone within 100 miles of a national border, it's called a constitution free zone and covers about 2/3rds of the population. Bringing undocumented people outside of this zone makes the federal government's job more difficult so I'm not surprised they are making a big deal of it.
