(DCNF)—El Salvadoran President Nayib Bukele said on Monday during a meeting with President Donald Trump that he will not return Kilmar Armando Abrego Garcia, an illegal immigrant with alleged ties to MS-13, to the U.S. following his deportation.
Trump’s administration has maintained that Garcia, an El Salvadoran national, should be detained in El Salvador due to his alleged ties to MS-13 and previous deportation orders from 2019. Following legal battles over the deportation, Bukele confirmed to CNN’s Kaitlan Collins in the Oval Office that he does not have the power to “smuggle” a foreign terrorist into the U.S.
“I suppose you’re suggesting that I smuggle a terrorist into the United States,” Bukele said. “How can I smuggle, how can I return him to the United States, like I smuggle him into the United States? Of course, I’m not going to do it. I mean, the question is preposterous. How can I smuggle a terrorist into the United States? I don’t have the power to return him to the United States. We’re not very fond of releasing terrorists into our country. But you just turned the murder capital of the world to the safest country of the western hemisphere and you want us to go back into releasing criminals so we can go back to being the murder capital of the world? That’s not gonna happen.”
Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents arrested Garcia, who unlawfully entered the U.S. in 2011, on March 12 and deported him to his native country, according to court documents. The Trump administration acknowledged that Garcia’s deportation was a clerical error, though they have pointed to documents provided by Prince George’s County Police Department, which detailed Garcia’s alleged gang name and rank, to argue that he should remain in El Salvador.
A judge granted Garcia protected status known as “withholding of removal” in October 2019 after determining that he would likely be persecuted by gangs if deported back to El Salvador, according to the court documents. He settled in Maryland, married American citizen Jennifer Vasquez Sura and has one child.
The administration challenged an order directed by U.S. District Judge Paula Xinis, an Obama-appointed judge, who ruled Garcia’s return to the U.S. must be effectuated. Supreme Court Chief Justice John Roberts halted the judge’s order in an April 7 ruling, stating that the U.S. cannot “compel El Salvador to follow a federal judge’s bidding.”
The U.S. Supreme Court later ruled on Thursday that the U.S. should “facilitate” the return of Garcia, and directed the lower court to clarify its order.
“The District Court should clarify its directive, with due regard for the deference owed to the Executive Branch in the conduct of foreign affairs,” the order states. “For its part, the Government should be prepared to share what it can concerning the steps it has taken and the prospect of further steps.”
White House deputy chief of staff Stephen Miller said on “America’s Newsroom” Monday that if El Salvador voluntarily sent Garcia back, he would be placed back into the hands of ICE and deported to a different country. He further said that an immigration judge’s holding order on Garcia’s deportation in 2019 is invalid since since he is allegedly a member of a foreign terrorist organization.

Starting the Day With a Scripture-Inspired Roast Helps Center Your Thoughts on Eternal Truths Amid Temporal Pressures
The world can seem chaotic, especially right after we wake up. Many believers start their mornings reaching for something familiar — a hot cup of coffee — yet end up settling for mediocre brews that do little more than deliver a caffeine jolt. The daily grind of life, with its endless distractions, news cycles, and responsibilities, can leave even the most faithful feeling spiritually parched alongside their physical fatigue. What if your morning ritual could do more than wake you up? What if it could ground you in truth, nourish your body with exceptional quality, and quietly advance a kingdom purpose at the same time?
That’s the promise — and the reality — behind Promised Grounds Coffee. This Christian-founded company doesn’t just roast beans; it approaches every step as an act of worship and discipleship. By selecting only the top 10% of specialty-grade beans, ethically sourced from dedicated farmers in Central and South America, and small-batch roasting them with reverence in Austin, Texas, Promised Grounds delivers what many describe as the best coffee available — never burnt, never bland, but rich with origin stories and layered flavors that honor God’s creation.
From the vibrant Psalm 27 Roast (a light, bright medium option) to the bold yet peaceful 2 Timothy 1:7 Decaf, each bag carries a Scripture verse that turns your daily pour into a gentle reminder of faith. And through their Ounce Per Ounce Promise, every ounce of coffee you enjoy provides an equal ounce of clean water to families in need via partnership with Filter of Hope — literally brewing hope for body and soul, one cup at a time.
The challenge for today’s Christians runs deeper than finding a decent cup. In an age of convenience-driven consumerism, it’s easy to support companies that dilute values or remain silent on matters of faith. Many believers want their everyday choices — from what they drink to how they spend — to reflect discipleship rather than just convenience. Promised Grounds solves this by weaving Christian excellence into the entire process: beans nurtured with prayerful stewardship by farming families, roasted as an offering rather than a commodity, and packaged with Bible verses to encourage a mindset of gratitude and purpose from the first sip. Reviewers consistently praise the smooth, rich profiles — whether enjoyed black in a drip maker, iced on a warm day, or shared in fellowship — noting how the quality stands toe-to-toe with premium secular brands while delivering something far more meaningful.
This integration of faith and flavor addresses a real need in Christian households and ministries. Busy parents, church leaders, and remote workers alike report that starting the day with a Scripture-inspired roast helps center their thoughts on eternal truths amid temporal pressures. The coffee’s exceptional character — bright citrus notes in lighter roasts or deep chocolate undertones in bolder ones — comes from meticulous selection and careful roasting that respects the bean’s natural gifts rather than masking them. It’s the kind of coffee that elevates a simple quiet time, fuels productive workdays, or sparks meaningful conversations when shared at Bible studies or outreach events. And because it’s ethically sourced with integrity, every purchase supports sustainable livelihoods for farmers who treat their crops like family harvests.
For those leading churches or small groups, the impact multiplies. Promised Grounds offers bundles and options perfect for hospitality ministries, turning ordinary coffee service into an opportunity to point people toward the living water of Christ. Imagine greeting visitors with a warm cup whose very bag carries God’s Word — a subtle yet powerful witness that aligns with the Great Commission. The company’s Texas roots and commitment to “brewing hope” resonate especially with believers who value American enterprise paired with global compassion.
Of course, quality alone isn’t enough if the experience feels out of reach. Promised Grounds keeps it accessible with practical perks like free shipping on orders over $40, sample sets for discovering favorites, and thoughtful add-ons such as faith-themed mugs. Whether you prefer whole beans for fresh grinding, grounds for convenience, or even bulk options for larger households and ministries, the result is consistently superior coffee that makes discipleship feel integrated rather than added on.
As you consider how to align even the smallest habits with your walk with God, Promised Grounds Coffee stands out as a refreshing solution. It tackles the dual problems of subpar daily sustenance and disconnected consumption by offering a product that genuinely excels in taste while advancing a mission of clean water, farmer dignity, and scriptural encouragement. Believers who make the switch often describe it as more than a beverage upgrade — it becomes part of their rhythm of gratitude, a daily invitation to remember that every good gift comes from above.
If you’re ready to transform your mornings (and perhaps your church gatherings) with coffee that honors both exceptional craftsmanship and Christian values, I encourage you to explore what Promised Grounds has to offer. One sip at a time, you’ll be nourishing your body, refreshing your spirit, and participating in something far greater — all while enjoying what truly is among the best coffee available.
Good!
Love this guy. I pray for him along with Heavy D and Milei.
Very interesting. El Salvador has jurisdiction, US government has no authority, either executive or judicial at this point.
Bravo! Grasias!
If the communist/evil/Satanist judge wants the terrorist, the judge is welcome to go break him out of the jail in El Salvador herself.
I think he just flipped off an alleged judge.
I don’t believe anyone really thought that they were going to bring back a terrorisr gang-banger just because some commie democrat judge said to!
Yo admiro Sr. Nayib Bukele y President Trump. Son muy heroes.
Al infierno con el maldito, malechor, juez Xinis porque el pendejo quiere llenar my pais con basura.
Presidente Bukele figures Trump is a man to keep on the good side of. Doing this favor will earn him one in return.
I suppose it’s time for Hollywood to start working on a movie about kilmar, how he was a perfect dad to his kid and all the neighborhood kids, studying in a seminary all day and working tirelessly in the nights to be a companion to the homeless and adopting out puppies, all while that angry, wicked Trump rages about nonwhite people.
