Sen. Van Hollen to Lead Democrat Lawmakers on El Salvador Trip to ‘Discuss’ Return of Deported Alleged MS-13 Gang Member
Breitbart ^ | 15 Apr 2025 | OLIVIA RONDEAU

Sen. Chris Van Hollen (D-MD) has pledged to travel to El Salvador to “discuss” the release of an alleged MS-13 gang member who was deported last month, leading a group of other Democrat lawmakers to demand the man’s return to the U.S.

Kilmar Abrego-Garcia, a 29-year-old Salvadoran national who entered the United States illegally when he was 16, was arrested by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents in Maryland, where he resided, on March 12.

Abrego-Garcia was previously arrested by immigration officials on March 28, 2019, with Judge Elizabeth Kessler finding that he “was arrested in the company of other ranking gang members and was confirmed to be a ranking member of the MS-13 gang by a proven and reliable source.”

Arguing that he “failed to meet his burden of demonstrating that his release from custody would not pose a danger to others, as the evidence shows that he is a verified member of MS-13,” Kessler denied Abrego-Garcia’s bond. He married his pregnant girlfriend, an American citizen, while he was still in a Maryland immigration detention center, the Independent reported.

I don’t mind that a bunch of demonicRATS may be flying to El Salvador. What bothers me is that they’ll just come back.

It would be great if El Salvador denies them visas so they can’t enter.

There’s a National Security issue here. They should be denied entry into the country.

So they’re going to go to El Salvador to tell the government of El Salvador to break US immigration laws? What kind of treachery is that?

Van Hollen never does a damn thing for American citizens but will bend over backwards to aid a foreign terrorist invader.

Know your enemies America. They call themselves democrats.

My request to the Salvadoran immigration officials who are on duty when the gringos arrive: deny them entry into your country and have them on the next plane to Miami.
