The government has said Mr Garcia was deported on 15 March due to an "administrative error", although they also maintain he is a member of the MS-13 gang, which his family denies.

In their emergency appeal to America's highest court, the administration argued the Maryland judge lacked authority to issue the order and that US officials cannot compel El Salvador to return Mr Garcia.

If they win this argument in the Supreme Court they can ship whoever they want outside the borders of the US and that's it, you have no recourse.

No legal recourse, but we still have options that may or may not hypothetically involve the use of the 2nd amendment.

This is going to be the test of Trump and Co's power. We will be in some crazy dictatorship with judicial backing. At that point i doubt Congress will do anything to stop this.

No official recourse. Let's see if anyone gets creative.
