Markwayne Mullin Supports Deportation of Kilmar Abrego Garcia to Costa Rica

Markwayne Mullin stated the U.S. would be 'happy to send' Kilmar Abrego Garcia to Costa Rica, contradicting previous government positions on his deportation to Liberia.
Abrego Garcia's legal team is using Mullin's remarks in court to challenge his deportation plans, which have faced scrutiny from U.S. District Judge Paula Xinis.
The case highlights ongoing concerns about wrongful deportation and the treatment of Abrego Garcia, who was previously deported to El Salvador despite a court order against it.
