I am embarrassed to say I am a Marylander.

[Macho MAGA Man]

(How much money did he bring to buy the freedom for the man? )

Who would he pay the money to? Bukele in the White House said to reporters he wasn’t sending him back.

[Verginius Rufus]

Signs are professionally made, not handmade. Someone is funding this.

They pick Kilmar as their poster boy because he is a light-skinned El Salvadorean, not someone dark-skinned with lots of facial tattoos.

[Organic Panic]

Arrest that bastard if he smuggled a terrorist back in to the country. Is Bukele even home yet?

[liberalh8ter]

His Maryland constituents must be very happy he’s working so hard on their behalf.

[bobbo666]

You, citizens of the other 49 states, paid for this. CaCaLand has been mooching off Fed tax $$ for decades. We generate nothing except hatred and porn from Silicon Valley.

Keep him there. In fact, encourage more politicos to go on junkets. Especially to dangerous areas. Mebbe he (we) will luck out and martyr himself.

[KittyKares]

I hope he didn’t bring a wad of Soros’ money to bribe a jail official to let Garcia out.

[CapandBall]

Yep. What is ridiculous is that this idiot from Congress thinks he can “visit” an inmate at the CECOT facility in El Salvador … he can’t. I doubt they will even let him inside, nor should they.

[Repeat Offender]

Don’t throw me in that briar patch.

[TheDon]

When you’re on the MS-13 payroll, you do what you’re told.

[Betty Jane]

I saw a post on X of the wife getting a restraint order against him in 2021. He was accused of domestic abuse.

[Fledermaus]

More fake news propaganda.

[plain talk]

“Signs are professionally made, not handmade. Someone is funding this.”

Definitely.

[tiki]

Maybe he can do an AOC and stand at the fence of the prison and sob.

[LouAvul]

Can you spell attention whore?

[MissNomer]

I read somewhere that it took a year to get into that place to see someone.

Don't you know who he is?!

[BlackbirdSST]

Arrest Van Hollen for being a foreigner, interfering in El Salvador politics. Then let his case work its way through a maze of El Salvador political judges, trials and appeals - just like in the USA!

Yes. Let him get a good dose of 'due process'.

[DPMD]

The notion of a trade seems awfully enticing...

[Albion Wilde]

Don’t let him back in.

[Vaduz]

Guess who is in the single IQ meetings.
