The article centers on Kilmar Abrego Garcia, an illegal immigrant deported from Maryland to El Salvador, and Attorney General Pam Bondi's response to the situation.
Garcia, linked to the MS-13 gang, was deported by the Trump administration. Left-leaning media outlets disputed the deportation, claiming it was wrongful.
El Salvador's President Nayib Bukele stated that he would not return Garcia to the US, referring to him as a "terrorist" and highlighting the absurdity of the request.
Attorney General Bondi strongly contested the portrayal of Garcia as a "Maryland man." She emphasized his MS-13 affiliation and the two judicial rulings confirming this. She rejected claims from Garcia's family and lawyers denying his gang ties.
This month, an illegal alien residing in Maryland made headlines for being deported to El Salvador by the Trump administration.
Kilmar Abrego Garcia, the illegal alien, has ties to the violent gang MS-13. He immigrated to the US illegally years ago when he was a teenager. Several left-wing media outlets, including POLITICO, have claimed that Garcia was wrongly deported despite these facts.
This week, in the Oval Office, El Salvador President Nayib Bukele affirmed that he would not send Garcia back to the US.
"How can I return him to the United States? Like if I smuggle him into the United States?" Bukele said, sitting beside Trump. "Of course I'm not going to do it. The question is preposterous."
Bukele was then asked if Garcia would be released in his own country.
“We’re not very fond of releasing terrorists,” Bukele responded.
In a Fox News segment this week, Attorney General Pam Bondi made her thoughts on the matter known.
“When you’re listening to all these liberal reporters, they keep calling him a Maryland man. He’s not a Maryland man. He’s part of foreign terrorist organization. He’s a member of MS-13, who, as you laid out in your monologue, came to this country and committed just gang acts,” Bondi told Jesse Watters.
Bondi also responded to claims from Garcia’s family and his attorneys that he does not have ties to MS-13.
“Two judges – An immigration judge and an appellate judge – ruled that he was an MS-13 member…yet, his attorneys are saying, ‘He’s not affiliated with a gang.’ They’re wrong…President Bukele does not want to give him back to the United States, nor do we want him back,” she said.
This is not a “Maryland man” this is an illegal alien from El Salvador whom two judges have ruled is part of MS-13, a foreign terrorist organization.
