It's Tuesday, April 15th.

On today's show, Republicans look for budget cuts to meet Trump's legislative agenda,
why maternal mortality rates are rising in the U.S., and the WNBA gets its latest star in last night's draft.
But first,
President Trump and Salvadoran President Naib Bukele
say they will not return a Maryland man who was wrongfully deported to a notorious mega-prison in El Salvador.
Bukele met with Trump in the Oval Office on Monday and addressed the situation directly with reporters.
How can I return him to the United States?
It's like I smuggle him into the United States or whatever you look for, so I'm not going to do it.
The question is for postures.
This comes despite a unanimous Supreme Court order directing the administration
to quote facilitate the return of Kilmar Abrego Garcia to the United States.
He's originally from El Salvador,
but he lives in Maryland under legal protected status with his wife and children, who are U.S. citizens.
He has no criminal record in the United States or El Salvador.
The White House has called his deportation an administrative error, but at least one Trump adviser,
Stephen Miller, contradicted that, saying quote, this was the right person sent to the right place.
