And Will, what do we hear from the Hegseth or Trump perspectives on all this?
Great piece, Will. Folks can find the full version with a link in today's show notes. Will Carlos covers extremism and emerging issues for USA Today. Thank you, Will. Thanks, man. What role does humor play in making the world make sense? My colleague Dana Taylor spoke with author Christine Wentz about her new book, Funny Because It's True, How the Onion Created Modern American News Satire.
You can find their conversation tomorrow morning, beginning at 5 a.m. Eastern Time, right here on this feed. And thanks for listening to The Excerpt.

The Excerpt · Judge demands daily updates on return plan for man wrongly deported · 12 Apr 2025
podcast
Good morning, I'm Taylor Wilson and today is Saturday, April 12th, 2025. This is The Exit. Today, what's next for the Maryland man wrongly deported to Central America? Plus we look into some other late week immigration rulings and Elon Musk lowers Doge's projected savings.
A federal judge yesterday ordered the Trump administration to provide immediate information on the whereabouts of a Maryland man who the Supreme Court this week said must be returned after being wrongfully deported to El Salvador. I spoke with Gabrielle Banks, an editor on USA Today's politics team, for more. Gabrielle, thank you so much for hopping on the show today. You're welcome.
Gabby, you attended this hearing yesterday, Friday. Paint the picture for us. Where were you and what was the scene or the mood like around the courthouse?
Wow. So in terms of Abrego Garcia and just his current situation at the time that we're talking, Gabby, where do things stand and what did a judge demand yesterday after the Supreme Court earlier in the week instructed government attorneys to begin the process of bringing him back home?
OK, so considering some of that strong language, really demanding language from the judge, what are we hearing from the Trump administration afterwards? And how are Abrego Garcia's lawyers or family responding to all this?
You know, curiously, the White House is prepared to host Salvador and President Nayib Bukele on Monday. I'd imagine, Gabby, this and the general use of El Salvador's SICOT prison may come up during this meeting. Is that a fair expectation? And just put this meeting in context for us, if you would.
You know, this case we've been talking a lot about here on the show. Why has this particular case grabbed so much of the public's attention, Gabby?
Lots still to come on this crucial story. Gabrielle Banks is an editor on USA Today's politics team. Thanks, Gabby.
A federal judge yesterday refused to limit the Trump administration's immigration enforcement activities in places of worship. The move rules against a group of 27 religious organizations that had sued the administration over its decision to drop a previous policy against enforcement in sensitive locations.
A judge appointed by President Trump during his first term found that the organizations likely did not have standing to bring the case because their claims that they faced harm were speculative.
The group sued the Department of Homeland Security and other immigration enforcement agencies in February, arguing that the administration's policy change violated their right to religious freedom under federal law and the First Amendment.
Meanwhile, 19 Democratic state attorneys general are asking a federal judge to stop the Trump administration from canceling hundreds of international student visas, a move that sent shockwaves through the collegiate community. though there's been no comprehensive accounting of how many students have seen their visas revoked.
In some cases, weeks before graduation, Trump officials say they have been in part targeting students they accuse of harboring ill will toward the United States. And in a high-profile case, a U.S.
immigration judge ruled yesterday that Palestinian activist Mahmoud Khalil can be deported, allowing Trump's administration to proceed with its effort to remove the Columbia University student from the country. Elon Musk this week seemed to give dramatically lower estimated savings for the Department of Government Efficiency, or DOGE, than he had previously touted.
I spoke with USA Today White House correspondent Joey Garrison to learn more. Hi, Joey. Always a pleasure. Hey, thanks for having me on. So Joey, what's this new savings projection from Elon Musk? And I guess how does it differ from previous numbers we've heard him toss out there?
Has anything tangible, I guess, Joey, happened in recent weeks for him to alter this outlook, alter this number so significantly?
How is Trump viewing Musk and Doge efforts at this point? And are there any signs of that alliance splitting, I guess, or not so much? Are they as close as they've been?
