NPR is left wing news?

I truly wish Trump would shut the fuck up about how NPR is a left-wing
news outlet and don't deserve the tiny public subsidy they receive,
directly and indirectly, from the federal government. If they are, they
are horrid at promoting left-wing causes and Trump should just be
thankful that their reporting can be pathetic at times.

Interviewing a spokesflak for Department of Homeland Security, there was
discussion of the case of Kilmar Abrego Garcia, whom Trump claims was
deported to the contract prison in El Salvador through "administrative
error" but continues to insist is an MS-13 gang member, based on an
accusation a confidential informant about his activities in New York,
where he was not resident.

The interviewer kept asking if he received due process, which allowed
the spokesflak to repeat over and over that various federal judges (I
guess administrative law judges in immigration proceedings but it wasn't
clear) had found him to be a gang member.

The interviewer (female) was clueless about due process. The correct
constitutional standard to ask about was probable cause. The man
received protected status from an immigration judge back in 2013 and was
not to be deported back to El Salvador, where he would be killed by
gangs. He was living in the United States legally. He had not been
arrested for crimes either in El Salvador nor the US.

The recent court that ordered the Trump administration to return him
from El Salvador said that the man's constitutional rights were violated
the moment he was picked up.

One cannot be arrested, arraigned, and charged for a felony lacking
probable cause. Evidence in support of probable cause is presented at
the arraignment, at least in summary. The judge then finds probable
cause and the defendant is arrested and charged with the felony. If not,
then the initial arrest was uncomstitional.

This evidence is presented publicly. The spokesflak kept insisting
evidence existed but it was developed through intelligence and she
couldn't discuss it due to police confidentiality.

If the evidence truly existed, then the prosecution was required to
present it in court in a public proceeding, unless for some reason this
was under FISA which this wasn't.

Remember, this was not a man accused of violating the conditions of his
humanitarian parole by committing crimes or for any other reason. He
wasn't subject to removal,

But because the NPR reporter doing the interview lacked the kind of
legal training I've had (by watching tv), she let the Trump
administration repeat misleading statements again and again.

Dumb leftist reporters are good for Trump. He should increase NPR's
funding.
