Van Hollen in El Salvador: 'Open the door of CECOT and let this innocent man walk out'

bring Garcia homeSen. Chris Van Hollen demanded Wednesday that Salvadoran President Nayib Bukele open the doors of a notorious Central American prison and free a Maryland father who was wrongly deported by the Trump administration.

“I’m not asking him to smuggle Mr. (Kilmar) Abrego Garcia into the United States,” the Maryland senator said, standing at the side of a busy road not far from the U.S. Embassy in El Salvador. “I’m simply asking him to open the door of CECOT and let this innocent man walk out.”

Van Hollen, who traveled to El Salvador to discuss Abrego Garcia's case with Salvadoran officials, described the union sheet metal worker and father of three as “a man who was illegally abducted from the United States and charged with no crime.”

Opening of all humanitarian crossings in Gaza 'vital necessity' for civilians: Macron

Macron on opening Gaza crossing
French President, Emmanuel Macron, on Tuesday stressed the urgent need to open all humanitarian aid crossings into Gaza, calling it a “vital necessity” for the civilian population, as the humanitarian crisis in the enclave continues to worsen, Anadolu Agency reports.

“I have just spoken with (Israeli) Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu,” Macron said on X.

“I reiterated France’s support for Israel’s security and its people. The release of all hostages has always been an absolute priority,” he said.

However, he stressed that a ceasefire is the only path to ensuring the release of the remaining hostages and alleviating suffering in Gaza.

“The opening of all humanitarian aid crossings is a vital necessity for the civilian population of Gaza,” he said.

Democratic senator heads to El Salvador to try to visit Kilmar Ábrego García

Van Hollen

Democratic senator Chris Van Hollen of Maryland will travel to El Salvador on Wednesday and attempt to visit Kilmar Ábrego García, a constituent whose deportation and incarceration in the Central American country, he warns, has tipped the United States into a constitutional crisis.

In an interview with the Guardian on Tuesday, Van Hollen said he hopes to learn of Ábrego García’s condition and convey it to his family, who also live in the state he represents.

The state department has confirmed that Ábrego García is held in El Salvador’s notorious Terrorism Confinement Center (Cecot), and despite the US supreme court last week saying the Trump administration must “facilitate” his return to the United States, the president refuses to do so.

'New Kind of Antisemitism': Jewish Students Slam Trump's Detention of Mohsen Mahdawi

New kind of anti-semitism

“It’s infuriating. I think it's the new kind of antisemitism. It's just using Jews in a very cynical way.”

This is what Israeli Columbia PhD student Sahar Bostock told Zeteo regarding the Trump administration’s arrest of Palestinian Columbia undergraduate Mohsen Mahdawi on Monday. And she’s not alone in feeling this way. Students and professors spoke fondly of Mahdawi, a green card holder who was detained at his scheduled citizenship interview.

Mahdawi was born and raised in a Palestinian refugee camp, in the occupied West Bank. As a child, he watched an Israeli soldier shoot and kill his best friend. After arriving in the US 10 years ago, he went to Lehigh University to study computer science, before transferring to Columbia to study philosophy. While there, he organized with Palestinian and Jewish students towards peace, served as Columbia’s Buddhist Association president, and co-founded the Palestinian Student Union, alongside now-fellow-detained classmate Mahmoud Khalil.

U.S.-Born Attorney Says She Was Told To 'Immediately' Self-Deport In DHS Email

MicheroniA Massachusetts-born immigration attorney is questioning how many people are being wrongly instructed by the federal government to self-deport after she says she received an email from the Department of Homeland Security telling her to leave the U.S. “immediately” because her “parole” was terminated.

Nicole Micheroni shared the email to her Bluesky account Friday, stating that she knew it was sent to her in error and so wasn’t worried, “but what about the people the emails were actually aimed at?”

“It is time for you to leave the United States,” reads the email attributed to DHS, which has sent out similar versions to non-U.S. citizens who entered the U.S. using the CBP One mobile app. That app was set up during the Biden administration to facilitate border crossings before it was canceled by President Donald Trump.

I never took DHS's scary-sounding notice that I had 7 days to leave the country too seriously, because it was obviously some kind of mistake. But what about the people the emails were actually aimed at? Let's talk a bit about immigration "parole" and what Trump is doing here.

Columbia student Mohsen Mahdawi arrested by DHS agents during naturalization interview

Columbia studentColumbia University student Mohsen Mahdawi was arrested by federal agents Monday while he was in a naturalization interview at an immigration office in Vermont.

Mahdawi, a Palestinian student and green-card holder, was arrested by agents with the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) in Colchester, Vt., according to a court filing.

Mahdawi was a leader in the pro-Palestinian protests last spring, making him the latest such activist targeted by the Trump administration. The first and most prominent foreign-born student demonstrator now in immigration custody, Mahmoud Khalil, also attended Columbia.

“The Trump administration detained Mohsen Mahdawi in direct retaliation for his advocacy on behalf of Palestinians and because of his identity as a Palestinian. His detention is an attempt to silence those who speak out against the atrocities in Gaza. It is also unconstitutional,” attorney Luna Droubi said.

The court filing said Mahdawi was targeted by a pro-Israel organization called Betar US, which said on social media that “visa holder Mohsen Mahdawi is on our deport list.”
