Trump administration tells Abrego Garcia he now faces deportation to African country of Eswatini
The Trump administration told Kilmar Abrego Garcia on Friday it is now seeking to deport him to the tiny African kingdom of Eswatini, formerly known as Swaziland, according to an Immigration and Customs Enforcement email obtained by CBS News.

The email from a top ICE official noted that Abrego Garcia's attorneys have warned he fears being persecuted or tortured in Uganda, where federal authorities threatened to deport him last month after he was detained once again by immigration officials following his release from criminal custody.

It isn't legal. Deportation is a civil process. Kinda like, 'We have the right to refuse anyone". Or like eviction. LeftInTX Sep 2025 #26
