The Salvadoran government on Wednesday rebuffed Sen. Chris Van Hollen’s (D-Md.) request to meet or speak with a wrongfully deported Maryland man, the senator said, accusing the Trump administration and others of lying about Kilmar Abrego Garcia’s gang ties.
Van Hollen said Salvadoran Vice President Félix Ulloa told him the government had no information connecting Abrego Garcia to MS-13 but could not accommodate a visit to the notorious CECOT prison, known by its acronym in Spanish.
“If the government of El Salvador has no evidence that he was part of MS-13, why is El Salvador continuing to hold him in CECOT?” Van Hollen asked.
“And his answer was that the Trump administration is paying the government of El Salvador to keep him at CECOT.”

Are you retarded Chris? Yeah you probably are, you are a democrat.
Didn’t this case have some previous offenses he faced and was not fully exhonerated of? Seems like he has had a lot of scuffs with the law, and had previous reports of coming into the country without proper documentation. What else do they need>?
Has he called Laken Riley’s mom? President Trump has.
Why was he scared of gangs killing him?
Looks like Merryland is going to have to find another gangleader to be “Father of the Year”.
“wrongfully deported”?
I wonder.
OUTSTANDING
He was granted a hold on deportation because as a member of MS13 he would be killed in El Salvador by a rival gang. He claimed this himself.
Jail Van Hollen, toss him in with his buddy. It’s win win win. Chrissy gets to check on his pet gang member, El Salvador rids itself of a rabble rouser interfering in domestic politics, the GOP margin gets better in the senate. Added bonus if pet gang member turns Van Hollen into a prison wife.
awwwwwwwwww aint that a pity..imagine flying all the way to El Salvador to meet with the illegal alien gang banging domestic wife abuser and being told to pound sand
Heck he never called Rachel Morin’s family and they were his constituents
ALL—ANY OF US HERE ON FR CAN CLAIM ANYTHING AT ANYTIME
At least he is racking up those frequent flyer miles....
So far, El Salvador does not feel the need to play along with this phony ‘rescue mission’ of Van Hollen.
I hope this sentiment continues.
He, Van Hollen, could have asked those exact same questions about gaining access to the prisoner over phone or email.
It would have saved him some time on those long, boring flights, and the taxpayer several thousands of dollars in fuel and personnel.
HA. HA. HA.
He knew he was going to be denied and did not care. It is all a publicity stunt to make himself look good and President Trump look bad.
The rest of the USA does not care one wit for this deported El Salvadorian gang member...
That hold only covered deportation to El Salvador and was predicated upon his allegation that he would be targeted by another gang for retribution. That gang has now been eradicated by the Salvadorian government; so, the allegations upon which the hold was issued no longer exist.
The fact is Abrego-Garcia is an El Salvadorian citizen and should be deported there based upon current conditions.
Note: Two (2) U.S. courts ruled that Abrego-Garcia was likely a Tren de Aragua (TDA) member PRIOR to the issuance of the hold on his deportation.
Traveled there and back on taxpayer money, just to have a photo op, and his name in the news. He should be brought up on ethics charges.
What was wrong about it?
