U.S. Will Try to Deport Abrego Garcia Before He Faces Trial, Justice Dept. Says

THE NEW YORK TIMES: The plan directly contradicted the White House, which last month described as “fake news” reports of plans to re-deport Kilmar Armando Abrego Garcia.

The Justice Department said on Monday that Trump officials would immediately begin the process of expelling Kilmar Armando Abrego Garcia from the country again if he is released from custody next week on charges filed after his wrongful deportation to El Salvador in March.

That plan, laid out by a Justice Department lawyer at a hearing in Federal District Court in Maryland, directly contradicted a statement by the White House last month describing the possibility that the administration might re-deport Mr. Abrego Garcia as “fake news.” » | Alan Feuer and Minho Kim | Alan Feuer reported from New York, and Minho Kim from Greenbelt, Md. | Monday, July 7, 2025

Trump Deportation Threat Puts US on Collision Course with Vatican

THE GUARDIAN: Pope’s appointment of progressive Robert McElroy comes as rightwing Catholics wield notable influence in US capital

When the Texas attorney general, Ken Paxton, sought to shut down a Catholic charity that was was providing shelter and aid to undocumented migrants at the border, the San Diego cardinal, Robert McElroy, took a robust public stand against the attempt.

“The state of Texas is using governmental pressure to curtail the work of the church in one of its most fundamental obligations: to feed the hungry, to shelter the homeless, and to provide drink to the thirsty,” McElroy said in a statement at the time. “No government can morally tell us to abandon or limit this mission.”

Last week, as billionaires like Mark Zuckerberg adopted policies that seemed designed to ingratiate themselves with the incoming Trump administration, Pope Francis took a different tack when he tapped the Harvard and Stanford-educated McElroy to the role of archbishop of Washington DC – one of the most high-profile positions in the US Catholic church. » | Stephanie Kirchgaessner in Washington | Monday, January 13, 2025

Trump Admits He's Going to Deport Legal US Citizens

Dec 10, 2024 | During his interview on Meet The Press on Sunday, Donald Trump made it clear that his administration is planning on deporting LEGAL US citizens because he says he wants to "deport families together."

This is a direct attack on ‘birthright citizenship’, which Trump also says he wants to do away with in spite of it being enshrined into our Constitution.

This is just the first step in his administration's plans to get rid of other legal citizens, as Farron Cousins explains.

Bulgaria Regrets Failing to Save Thousands of Jews in WWII


BBC: Bulgaria has expressed regret that more than 11,000 Jews were deported to Nazi concentration camps from areas under Bulgarian control during World War II.

A Bulgarian parliament declaration did however praise Bulgarians for having blocked the deportation of more than 48,000 Jews during the war.

It said it could "not be disputed that 11,343 Jews were deported from northern Greece and the Kingdom of Yugoslavia".

Most Jews sent to the Nazi German death camps in Poland died.

Referring to the 11,343 deported, the MPs' declaration said "we denounce this criminal act, undertaken by Hitler's command, and express our regrets for the fact that the local Bulgarian administration had not been in a position to stop this act".

Only a few hundred of those deportees survived, Israel's Yad Vashem Holocaust Centre says.

Yad Vashem lists 20 Bulgarians among its "Righteous Among the Nations" - individuals who acted to protect Jews from the Holocaust.

Bulgaria was an ally of Nazi Germany during the war, when Jews were deported en masse from the Nazi-occupied Balkans to death camps such as Auschwitz. » | Friday, March 08, 2013
