| 0:00.0 | Hey, Bullwork fam. Welcome to the Bullwork. Thanks so much for joining us. It's my pleasure today to be |
| 0:05.7 | joined by Chris Newman. He is the lawyer for the family of Kilmar Abrago Garcia, the Maryland man |
| 0:11.7 | who the U.S. government admits was wrongly sent to El Salvador. Kilmar is a father of U.S. |
| 0:18.3 | citizens. He is a spouse, a U.S. citizen wife. Chris, we've known each other a long time. |
| 0:25.4 | When you were making trouble in the immigration advocacy space, you know, then when I joined in |
| 0:31.2 | and started covering immigration, I think you helped me, you know, piss off the Obama administration |
| 0:35.5 | and some other folks. So we've known each other a long time. And it was, I was, you know, heart off the Obama administration and some other folks. So we've known each other a long |
| 0:37.8 | time and it was, I was, you know, heartened to see that you were on this case and doing this work. |

| 1:10.9 | I've been listening with interest and I'm very, very grateful to the spotlight |
| 1:16.9 | that you all have been showing because, you know, I mean, this case is about a lot of things, |
| 1:21.3 | constitutional crisis, a man wrongfully detained, sent to a black site in a foreign country, |
| 1:26.5 | but it's also a case fundamentally about |
| 1:28.5 | truth versus lies, and we're getting a lot of lies from, you know, the highest, most powerful |
| 1:33.4 | office in the world, and we're doing our best to swat them away like whackamol, and I know that |
| 1:39.2 | your website has been on the case. To your question, I was actually in New York City and turned on my computer |
| 1:47.1 | and read it when Nick Miroff broke the story originally. I always read Nick stuff formally. |
| 1:54.5 | I think he was at the Washington Post. He's now at the Atlantic. But Nick is famous for breaking |
