The Maryland man wrongly deported to El Salvador and held in a notoriously violent prison told a senator that he's been traumatized by the experience. During their meeting in Central America, Kilmar Abrego-Garcia reported to Senator Chris Van Hollen that he was moved over a week ago from that country's Terrorism Confinement Center, or SECOT, to another facility with better conditions.
but that he had been traumatized by his time in Secod and that he had been taunted by other prisoners. Abrego Garcia's meeting with Van Hollen this week was the first time he had been seen publicly since he was detained in March by U.S. immigration officials near his home in Beltsville, Maryland.
Even though the Supreme Court told Trump administration officials to facilitate the return of Abrego Garcia, the case could soon be back at the Supreme Court's doorstep. The Trump administration says it does not need to even request his release from El Salvador because of how the court worded its decision. As of this morning, Abrego Garcia remains in custody in El Salvador.
You can read more with a link in today's show notes. The Supreme Court earlier today paused the Trump administration from deporting Venezuelan men in immigration custody after their lawyers said they were at imminent risk of removal without the judicial review previously mandated by the court.
Lawyers for the American Civil Liberties Union filed urgent requests yesterday in multiple courts, including the Supreme Court, urging immediate action after reporting that some of the men were told they would be deported. Trump has invoked the 1798 Alien Enemies Act in an attempt to deport accused members of the trained Aragua gang that his administration labels a terrorist organization.
The federal government's sex crimes case against Sean Diddy Combs will soon be underway. I spoke with USA Today Entertainment reporter Patrick Ryan, who joined me from outside the courthouse in New York following a hearing yesterday. Patrick, thanks for carving out some time on this.
So Patrick, what has Diddy been accused of or charged with? I guess let's start there.
All right, so you're joining us from outside the courthouse. Set the scene for us, if you would, Patrick. What was the atmosphere like in and out of court yesterday, Patrick?
Interesting. And the big news out of yesterday, Patrick, of course, this decision from the judge not to grant a trial delay. Can you talk through why the judge made this decision and why did Diddy and his legal team want the trial delayed?
I know there were also decisions made about which testimony may be included in the trial and also how the alleged victims will be involved.
All right, well, the trial is now just right around the corner, Patrick. When will it functionally begin and just how big a case, I guess, do you expect this to be? I'd imagine it'll be pretty closely followed considering who's involved.
Folks can stick to Patrick and USA Today's coverage of the trial here coming up in a few weeks. Patrick Ryan covers entertainment for USA Today. Thank you, Patrick. Thank you.
The suspected gunman in an attack at Florida State University this week had a troubling fascination with Adolf Hitler and Nazi Germany, according to screenshots of his online history captured by the Anti-Defamation League and shared with USA Today yesterday. The suspect used a drawing of Hitler with the word nine in a thought bubble next to him as a profile photo for an online gaming account.
according to analysts at the anti-hate group. The new revelations come after the shooting that began when a gunman opened fire near the university's student union, killing two and injuring six. Today marks 30 years since a former Army soldier committed the worst act of domestic terrorism in the country's history.
And decades after the Oklahoma City bombing, military service remains the single strongest predictor of involvement in violent extremism. So what's being done? I spoke with USA Today national correspondent Will Carlos for more. And a note, Will joined me before boarding a flight back from reporting in El Salvador, so you may hear some airport sounds. Will, thank you for making some time.
Thanks, as always, for having me. So just resetting this, Will, I think especially for some of our younger listeners who don't have any recollection of this day and this tragedy, what happened 30 years ago in Oklahoma City and how does this tragedy, I guess, resonate with Americans today?
The attacker back in the 90s was a military veteran, Will, a former Army soldier, and military service remains the single strongest predictor of involvement in violent extremism, according to terrorism researchers. Can you talk through exactly what that research tells us?
OK, so what efforts have we seen, Will, in recent years to tackle this problem? And I guess what's now changing over the past few months under new Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth?
Well, it really does seem like in this moment, Will, some even supporters of Trump within the military also feel abandoned and cheated. Can you talk through some of those tensions and issues?
You know, researchers in Veterans Group warn the risk of another attack like Oklahoma City, potentially from a disgruntled veteran, is higher than it's been in a while, Will. I guess considering some of what we've been talking about, what are some of their specific fears?
