Democratic senator from Maryland, Chris Van Hollen, grilled the Trump administration on Monday (August 25), saying that they continue to "spread lies about the facts” of Kilmar Ábrego García’s case. He said, Instead of spewing unproven allegations in the press and social media, the Trump Administration needs to put up or shut up in court and allow Mr. Ábrego García the opportunity to defend himself."
This came after a federal judge said that she will order federal officials to keep García in the US only till she weighs a new legal challenge from him to the Trump administration’s plans to quickly deport him to Uganda.
US District Judge Paula Xinis said during a brief hearing this afternoon that she’s planning to stretch out an existing hold on Abrego García’s removal so she can more fully consider whether officials are violating his due process rights.
Trump signs order for ‘specialised units’ of National Guard
Trump signed multiple executive orders on Monday (August 25), including the one under which the Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth will establish “specialised units” in the National Guard. The guards will be trained and equipped "specifically" to deal with public order issues.” This came after Hegseth issued a directive last week that authorized members of the National Guard to carry weapons. Those guards were deployed as part of Trump’s anti-crime agenda in Washington, DC.
