Legal expert Steve Vladeck highlights a discrepancy between President Trump's public statements and the actions of government lawyers in court regarding the detention of individuals in El Salvador. While courts demand action from the government to secure the release of detainees, Trump claims no such requests have been made. This involves at least two individuals, Abrego Garcia and another, and potentially up to 175 individuals deported under the Alien Enemy Act, which lower courts have deemed unlawful. Vladeck anticipates the case will reach the Supreme Court, where the justices will determine whether the government's efforts have been sufficient.
