Radical Obama judge Paula Xinis on Sunday denied the Trump Administration’s request to lift her order demanding the return of alleged El Salvadoran MS-13 gang member Kilmar Abrego to the United States.

The judge said the Trump Admin’s “grievous error” to deport the Abrego “shocks the conscience.”

On Friday US District Judge of the US District Court for the District of Maryland, Paula Xinis ordered the Trump Administration to return an alleged MS-13 gang member to the United States after he was deported to El Salvador’s notorious CECOT prison.

Judge Xinis ordered the Salvadoran gang member to be returned by Monday at midnight.

“This was an illegal act,” Judge Paula Xinis told a Justice Department lawyer, according to Politico. “Congress said you can’t do it, and you did it anyway.”

The Trump Administration maintains Kilmar Abrego is a dangerous MS-13 gang member who was involved in human trafficking.

The DOJ immigration lawyer, Erez Reuveni, repeatedly apologized to the judge during Friday’s hearing and apologized for the Trump Administration’s actions.

On Saturday, the DOJ lawyer was put on leave and Pam Bondi made it clear this behavior won’t be tolerated.

“At my direction, every Department of Justice attorney is required to zealously advocate on behalf of the United States. Any attorney who fails to abide by this direction will face consequences,” US Attorney General Pam Bondi said.
