Grassley is in his 90s I think?! Thanks goodness he's still with it as it looks like they tried to AstroTurf him here...

[RandFan]

Grassley said it’s not a congressional power in case you wondered how he responded

[kiryandil]

The Leftys can eff off.

The MS-13 gang member was deported to his home country.

“Are you going to bring that guy back from El Salvador?” one man asked Grassley, eliciting applause from others in attendance.

My response would be: "Yes, I'm getting on a plane in 2 hours, I'm going down there and personally take him out of his cage...and them I'm going to bring him to your house where you can provide him with a room and three meals per day until we can put him back on a plane and ship his a$$ right back where he came from."

"Kilmar Abrego Garcia, a Maryland man who was wrongly deported to El Salvador"

If the article contains this phrase, you can discard it.

[Sarah Barracuda]

Soros funded groups pay people to travel from all over the country to these town halls to make it appear like Republicans are facing “backlash” when in reality only far left whack jobs want a country where its overrun with gang banging murderers

Grassley is not in the executive branch.

Guess people there forgot what they learned in elementary school.

Grassley is very accessible to constituents with very frequent public meetings usually with small turnouts. He knows when a group is pulling a stunt.

Stephen Miller said it best...”He’s from El Salvador. So we sent him back home as he was here illegally. It’s up El Salvador as to what to with him. These people chose to invade us. It’s our responsibility to return them back to where they came from”

[sam_whiskey]

The guy asking the questions sounded “special”.

[FlingWingFlyer]

If you’re a Republican, YOU ARE AN IDIOT, if you go to town halls and allow Kamala voters posing as “republicans” to sling crap at your face. Why do you need town halls anyway? They’re really dumb. Just send out flyers stating your positions on the issues.

I think Trump should admit his "mistake" and ask that this gentleman be released from the prison into the streets of El Salvador.

[JoeRender]

Did the administration admit that deporting (Kilmar Abrego Garcia) was in error?

What is this guy’s Story?

[Fledermaus]

More propaganda.

“Wrongly”, “mistakenly”, “erroneously”, etc.

[1Old Pro]

Reminds me when Bush was President and the Dems infiltrated all the town halls screaming about how the GOP was ending Social Security.

[ridesthemiles]

THAT IS THE CORRECT ANSWER.

[17th Miss Regt]

Just add that it was recently discovered that he was in the crowd at the Capitol on Jan 6. That will silence the left immediately!

Astroturfers are a bit unclear on the concept. Iowa is nowhere near Maryland.
