Wife of wrongly deported Maryland man Kilmar Abrego Garcia forced into safe house after government posts address online

The wife of a wrongly deported Salvadoran father living in Maryland was moved to a safe house after Donald Trump’s administration posted a court document that included her address on social media.
In an interview with The Washington Post, Kilmar Abrego Garcia’s wife Jennifer Vasquez Sura said she began fearing for her safety and the safety of her three children after the Department of Homeland Security shared a protective order from 2021 that prominently featured her address to the department’s 2.4 million followers on X.

“I don’t feel safe when the government posts my address, the house where my family lives, for everyone to see, especially when this case has gone viral and people have all sorts of opinions,” she told The Washington Post. “So, this is definitely a bit terrifying. I’m scared for my kids.”

A statement from DHS to The Independent said “these are public documents that anyone could get access to.”

After a series of court rulings criticized the administration for failing to “facilitate” Abrego Garcia’s return to the United States from prisons in El Salvador, the White House and administration officials have sought to justify his detention by publicly introducing allegations of criminality against him, none of which have been submitted in court.

It's not enough that they deported and imprisoned a man in a foreign hell hole FOR NO REASON.

Now they're going after his family.

Did Jesus encourage Christians to hate and be cruel? G.O.P. makes it seem that way.

But you know what else it says?

Their ongoing campaign to make this man look like a criminal shows how truly they are feeling the heat.

The DemocraticRepresentatives who traveled to El Salvador on their own dime must be quite a problem for him.

I have no doubt whatsoever that this posting idea came straight from the mafia don himself. It meets all of his criteria: Petty, small minded, revengeful.

It is no small thing to have to leave your home. It is extremely stressful for the children. I think she did the wise thing, however, having seen what we have by some of his supporters.

schedule a sentencing appearance?

Trump would have either lost 2024 from a jail cell, or he could have played a Presidential version of "Hitler moves phantom armies around a map" from a jail cell. But somehow, here we are.

It’s a simple matter to get an anonymous online presence.

I know three ICE agents. I’ll post their names and addresses on an anonymous but highly visible platform and let the chips fall where they may.

Be a real shame if the same thing happened to ICE agents, DOGE assholes, and . . . .

were posted of those in the administration, musk's doge incels and right wing press but mostly the asses in ICE carrying out illegal orders with glee. Sure hope they and their families don't get death threats as the Democrats, Judges and Democratic Politicians have had to endure since 2017! Be a damn shame. Yep!

and each time he has been acquitted by a corrupt Republican majority in the Senate, and he has gained confidence and political capital from the process, claiming he has been totally exonerated.

I know there are individuals in Congress working on drafting articles of impeachment. But with this House they are not likely to get a vote, and if they did, this Senate would also acquit.

I think the heel-dragging is a matter of twice bit, thrice shy.
