Democrats infatuated with criminals and gang members — American citizens? Not so much
By Eric Utter
Sen. Chris Van Hollen, D-Md., recently flew to El Salvador "to show solidarity" with MS-13 gang member Kilmar Abrego Garcia -- who was deported after being in the U.S. illegally -- and his family.
Stephen Miller, White House deputy chief of staff for policy and Homeland Security advisor, said during a Monday press conference that once President Trump made MS-13 a foreign terrorist organization, Garcia "was no longer eligible, under federal law … for any form of immigration relief in the United States … and had to be returned because of the foreign terrorist designation."
Fortunately, Nayib Bukele, president of El Salvador, refused to see Van Hollen. (Attorney General Pam Bondi had previously stated that it was "up to El Salvador" if the country wanted to return him.)
House Democrats have been actively discussing plans to send an entire congressional delegation (CODEL) to El Salvador to investigate the conditions faced by criminal deportees at the now famous CECOT prison facility.
