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.”
Since then, Democrats have united to try to get this criminal back in the United States. Some have even flown to El Salvador to do so.
Additionally, Garcia’s wife, Jennifer Vasquez Sura, claimed that she would “stop fighting until I see my husband alive.”

Attorney General Pam Bondi responded directly to Sura this week.
“Maryland is safer because he is gone. And that woman that he is married to and that child he had with her, they are safer tonight because he is out of our country and sitting in El Salvador where he belongs,” Bondi said on Fox News Wednesday night.
“America is safer because he is gone,” she added.
The evidence shows Kilmar Abrego Garcia has repeatedly been identified as a member of MS-13 by:
