Kilmar Abrego Garcia said he suffered severe beatings, severe sleep deprivation and psychological torture in the notorious El Salvador prison the Trump administration had deported him to in March, according to court documents filed Wednesday.
He said he was kicked and hit so often after arrival that by the following day, he had visible bruises and lumps all over his body. He said he and 20 others were forced to kneel all night long and guards hit anyone who fell.
So many people will hopefully sue and get settlements down the line, i just wish the global community could punish the US for all this bullshit
Can’t sue. They were “official acts”. So, everyone in the federal government who is a Reich Winger has qualified immunity for anything they do.
The supreme court’s ruling about official acts only applies to the president. (The president does have pardon powers for others, but pardon powers aren’t new.)
So, we all know that the entire administration can get away with whatever they like, and only Donald as the arbitrator of what is legal then, right?
They can point to their made-up laws and/or their made-up following of the laws and say that they can get away with whatever they like, but that doesn’t mean we have to let them.
