AP correspondent Ed Donahue reports on the first court appearance for a man mistakenly deported.

Kilmar Abrego Garcia, the Maryland man mistakenly deported to El Salvador in March, has been returned to the United States to face federal criminal charges. For months, the Trump administration has been locked in an intense standoff with the federal judiciary over court orders for the government to “facilitate” Abrego Garcia's return from El Salvador, where he was mistakenly deported in mid-March.  Learn more about your ad choices.

In spite of claims from Trump Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem that there was no scenario in which wrongfully deported man Kilmar Abrego García would be returned to the United States, in breaking news this morning that is exactly what has happened. Facing charges of human smuggling over a 2022 incident that police formerly declined to pursue, however, is this a win for due process or the Trump administration trying to retroactively justify its glaring error? We take a look at this developing story as well as the very public breakup of Donald Trump and billionaire backer Elon Musk.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Robbery, kidnapping, extortion, rape and murder— that's what migrants face on their journey north. Jason De León spent years interviewing human smugglers in Mexico and Central America. De León argues it's far more complicated than what American politicians and the media portrays. His book Soldiers and Kings: Survival and Hope in the World of Human Smuggling won the National Book Award.

Marc is joined by Brian Cattell, Senior Partner at CLP Strategies, to discuss the case of an illegal immigrant, previously referred to as the "Maryland man," who was recently deported after being caught driving a car belonging to a human smuggler. Despite being an illegal immigrant and a gang member, Democrats continue to champion this individual, even though he is not a U.S. citizen. Cattell argues that it's wrong for the left to push for the rights of someone who is breaking the law and isn't even entitled to the same protections as citizens, challenging their claims of due process.

For our final episode of Season 8, we are thrilled to welcome Jason De Leon, anthropologist, researcher and professor at UCLA, and award-winning author. Jason's recent book, “Soldiers and Kings: Survival and Hope in the World of Human Smuggling” won the 2024 National Book Award for Nonfiction. Jason talks about how conversations with migrants at archaeological digs in central Mexico led to his interest in immigration. He shares stories of people that have stuck with him over the years, including a young man from Ecuador who went missing in the desert along the US-Mexico border. He describes the history of “prevention through deterrence,” a US border policy that weaponizes the desert to inflict harm on migrants in order to try to deter entry. Jason shares how his latest book, “Soldiers and Kings,” came about by just being present to smugglers in Mexico and listening to them as they shared their stories. Brian and Joe also share stories of being present to people in moments of need. Joe shares the story of Joana, who was stuck in the shelter after legal entry to the US was shut off to vulnerable migrants. As she walked off from the Mass in tears one day, Joe shares the frustration of being unable to help, but the gift that comes from just being present and holding someone as they cry. Brian shares the story of Laura, a young woman from Honduras who has been separated from her mom who has been living in the US for over twenty years. Unable to legally enter, Laura continues to live at the local shelter in northern Mexico, and loves preparing desserts to share. Her mom is undocumented in the US, and lives in fear of deportation after decades of establishing her life here. The situation of Laura and her mom reflects the reality we encounter as Season 8 comes to a close. Many vulnerable migrants remain stuck at the border, unable to return home and with no legal pathway of entry. And millions of migrants across the US live in fear of imprisonment and deportation, and continue to be criminalized, often just for being migrants.Thanks for joining us for this season, and blessings on your Holy Week. We'll be back with a new season in the Fall of 2025.

In this eye-opening podcast, investigative journalist Abhash Budathoki exposes the harsh reality of human trafficking in Nepal, the growing crisis of illegal immigration to the USA, and how Nepalis are smuggled to Russia to fight in wars. We dive deep into the difference between human smuggling vs trafficking, revealing how Nepalis enter the USA illegally through dangerous routes, often paying 90 lakhs for illegal USA entry. From the story of the first Nepali illegal immigrant to the tragic reality of Nepali migrants in detention, this conversation uncovers shocking truths about the success rate of illegal migration, the ground reality of illegal migrants, and the devastating risks involved. Many teenagers migrating illegally leave school in hopes of a better life, only to face deportation, passport fraud, or even death. With countless Nepali migrants losing their lives and families drowning in debt, this podcast sheds light on the hidden world of illegal migration risks and dangers. Watch till the end to understand the brutal truth behind these journeys and their life-altering consequences.

Human smugglers are oftentimes hired by migrants to help them through inhospitable and dangerous routes on their way to the United States. But how do human smugglers, also known as coyotes or polleros, get into the business in the first place? Are they more hurtful than helpful? What is fueling their industry?Renowned anthropologist and author Jason De León tries to answer these questions in his latest book “Soldiers and Kings: Survival and Hope on the World of Human Smuggling.”Jason sits down with Maria Hinojosa on this episode of Latino USA to discuss the links between the booming business of human smuggling and U.S. immigration policies and much more.Follow us on TikTok and YouTube. Subscribe to our newsletter by going to the top of our homepage. 

As Syria struggles to get on its feet after decades under the tyrannical father-son Assad regime, we're revisiting a story from 2024 when those desperate to leave Syria were preyed upon by a human smuggling ring.

His book Soldiers and Kings: Survival and Hope in the World of Human Smuggling won the National Book Award.

Anthropologist Jason De León has spent a career documenting the stories of migrants making their way across the Sonoran Desert at the Southern US border. But in his new book, “Soldiers And Kings: Survival and Hope in the World of Human Smuggling,” De León turns his gaze towards the smugglers. For nearly seven years, he embedded with a group of smugglers moving migrants across Central America and Mexico, following them as they led people north. We'll talk to him about his book, what he learned from this rare look into this side of the billion-dollar industry and what can be done to address the global migration crisis.

This episode was originally published on Sept 28, 2023 In this episode: Kent talks with US Representative Tony Gonzales of San Antonio, who represents Texas' 23rd Congressional District, which runs from El Paso to San Antonio and Del Rio and encompasses 42% of the southern border.

When we cover a news story on Art of Supply, we stick with it, even when it seems to have gone cold. In late August, we got an update on the case of the 53 migrants who lost their lives as a result of illegal attempted smuggling over the Mexico border back in 2022. On June 27th, 2022, an abandoned tractor trailer was found near Lackland Air Force Base in San Antonio, Texas. The truck had mechanical problems and it had been abandoned by its driver. A local worker heard cries of distress and opened the trailer door. What he found would go on to be declared the deadliest example of migrant smuggling in U.S. history.  In this bonus update episode, Kelly Barner shares the latest on the arrests, indictments, and specific charges associated with those allegedly involved in this crime.

Immigration is a perennial issue in American politics, but the rhetoric we hear from candidates on the campaign trail is often very different than the day-to-day experiences of migrants traveling from central America to the United States and the smugglers who help them make the often dangerous journey to get here. In an effort to better understand this essential yet extralegal billion dollar global industry, anthropologist Jason De León embedded with a group of smugglers moving migrants across Mexico over the course of seven years.

But in his new book, “Soldiers And Kings: Survival and Hope in the World of Human Smuggling,” De León turns his gaze towards the smugglers.
