Hi, welcome back to Maine Justice. It is Tuesday morning, June 10. I am Andrew Wiseman. I'm here with my co-host, Mary McCord. Hi, Mary. Let's get started. Yeah, that's right. No beating around

the bush today. There's just a lot and it just keeps becoming more. We're going to talk about

L.A., but I want to make sure everyone understands that this is something that a lot of people have

thought about because of things that the president had said when he was first in office and

he has since been saying. And so a lot of people have thought about this. But first among equals

is Mary McCord and her colleagues at ICAP have really thought a lot about this. So we're

really lucky because this is in many ways the topic that people have really thought a lot about this. So we're really lucky because this is in many ways the topic that people have really worried about,

which is the use of the military domestically.

Mary, you'll be happy to know I have done a ton of reading.

I'm sure you have.

I never doubt that ever.

I'm so looking forward to this.

So we're obviously going to talk about what is happening in L.A.

It is top of mind, but there's so much else we're going to talk about as well.

There's a lot, right?

Then we will talk about there's been also huge developments involving not only Abrago Garcia,

who has been brought back to the United States.

So this idea that the U.S. was unable to bring someone back is obviously been shown to be not true

because he is back in the United States.

Now he was back in the United States to face criminal charges that were brought against him while he was in El Salvador.

So we'll talk a little bit about that whole situation and what's happening in both his

civil case, right, his case to try to facilitate his return and the criminal case.
