'We Are in a Constitutional Crisis': A Mega Prison and What's at Stake
Apr 27, 2025•50 min
Episode description
What began as an ordinary traffic stop for Kilmar Abrego Garcia escalated into a nightmare at the center of a Supreme Court decision. The immigrant Maryland father was deported to El Salvador’s mega prison because of an “administrative error.” But even at the Supreme Court’s direction, the Trump administration has still not brought Kilmar back.
This case has tipped the scales: “We are in a moment of constitutional crisis.”
We break down what this case means and also bring you exclusive reporting about a Venezuelan man with no criminal record who was taken simply because of his tattoos.
