0:00.0 | Breaking news tonight, Donald Trump accedes to a court order. Fifty-seven days after the Supreme |
0:06.4 | Court unanimously ordered Donald Trump's administration to facilitate the return of Kilmar |
0:11.7 | Abrago-Garcia after he was sent to a Salvadoran prison by mistake, Trump's administration |
0:17.0 | brought him back to the United States, thus ending Trump's game of chicken with the Supreme Court. |
0:22.1 | In the last 57 days, Donald Trump has claimed that returning Abrago Garcia is not what the |
