Just to bring us to an end here, to an end point of reflection, I mean, we've talked about there being these two competing narratives of what happened this week. I think we're going to be hearing about this for a long time. The Trump administration is touting this week as a victory, as this was our plan all along. Others are calling it a capitulation, a real walk back after so much backlash.

How would you advise people who are listening to think about these dual narratives and decide which one is closest to true?

Before we let you go, a few other stories we're following. The Supreme Court ruled Thursday the Trump administration must facilitate the return of a Maryland man mistakenly deported to El Salvador back to the United States. A lower court judge ordered the administration to return Kilmar Abrego-Garcia by Monday night.

The Supreme Court ruled Thursday the Trump administration must facilitate the return of a Maryland man mistakenly deported to El Salvador back to the United States. A lower court judge ordered the administration to return Kilmar Abrego-Garcia by Monday night.

But Chief Justice John Roberts paused that order so the court could have time to review the case. The administration accused Abrego Garcia of being a gang member, but so far has not publicly provided any evidence of that. They admitted he was erroneously deported, but said there was nothing they could do to return him. And they argued the judge who ordered his return had no power to do so.

In addition to saying the government should help him return, the justices also ordered his case to be handled as it would have if he had not been deported. There were two aviation incidents on Thursday. First, in New York, a helicopter carrying six people went down into the Hudson River. ABC News reports all six people on board, including a pilot, two adults, and three children, were killed.

Meanwhile, in Washington, a plane carrying a number of members of the House from New York and New Jersey was clipped by another plane while on the ground at Reagan National Airport. Both were American Airlines aircraft. Reagan Airport has been in the public eye ever since an American Airlines jet collided with an Army helicopter in January, killing 67 people.
