A Maryland Democrat senator caused outrage after flying to El Salvador to defend a deportee accused of gang ties. Chris Van Hollen met with Kilmar Abrego Garcia, who was kicked out under President Trump’s crackdown on violent criminals. While liberals cry “mistaken deportation,” the facts tell a different story.
Abrego Garcia isn’t some innocent victim. The Trump administration identified him as an MS-13 affiliate and human trafficker. He’s locked up in El Salvador’s toughest prison for gang members – where he belongs. Yet Van Hollen posed for photos with him like they were old pals at a backyard BBQ.
This isn’t about compassion – it’s about politics. Democrats will always put illegal immigrants before American citizens. While Van Hollen coddles criminals, President Trump is keeping streets safe by deporting violent gang members. Republicans like Rep. Riley Moore visited that prison too – and came back more determined to secure our borders.
The White House admitted a paperwork mix-up but stands by Abrego Garcia’s deportation. Why? Because he’s dangerous. El Salvador’s government accepted hundreds of Trump-deported criminals because they know these thugs terrorize communities. Only liberals think violent gangs deserve hugs instead of handcuffs.
Van Hollen looked weak begging a foreign leader to release a suspected gangbanger. Meanwhile, Trump officials are fighting in court to keep our borders strong. A Reagan-appointed judge blasted the administration’s critics, defending the rule of law against leftist activists in black robes.
Here’s the truth Democrats hate: deportation works. Crime rates dropped when Trump started removing criminal aliens. El Salvador’s max-security prisons are where MS-13 monsters belong – not in American neighborhoods. Every deported gang member is a victory for public safety.
Van Hollen’s stunt proves Democrats care more about open borders than your family’s security. While conservatives fight to keep killers out, liberals jet south to comfort them. November’s election is simple: vote Republican to stop the invasion, or let Democrats turn every town into a gang warzone.
President Trump called Van Hollen’s trip “pathetic” – and he’s right. Americans are sick of weak politicians who side with criminals over cops. The choice is clear: strong borders with Trump, or more dead kids in the streets with Democrats. Patriots know which side they’re on.
