Trump Admin Threatens to Send Kilmar Abrego Garcia to Eswatini
--------------------------------------------------------------

In other immigration news, the Trump administration is threatening to
send Maryland father Kilmar Abrego Garcia to the small African nation of
Eswatini, formerly Swaziland, after he expressed fear of being deported
to Uganda. Abrego Garcia, who is seeking asylum in the United States,
first made headlines in March when he was wrongfully deported to El
Salvador, where he was held in the notorious CECOT mega-prison.
