Sen. Chris Van Hollen on Sunday repeatedly sidestepped questions about whether Kilmar Abrego Garcia was an MS-13 gangbanger as the Trump administration has alleged. Van Hollen (D-Md.), who met with Abrego Garcia in El Salvador on Thursday, accused President Trump of trying to change the subject on due process concerns, while he himself attempted to shift the discussion from MS-13. “What Donald Trump is trying to do here is change the subject,” Van Hollen told CNN’s “State of the Union” Sunday when asked about Abrego Garcia’s alleged MS-13 ties. “The subject at hand is that he and his administration are...

Roberts agreed to hold the deadline until the high court can resolve the Trump administration’s emergency request to lift the judge’s order.

But among his colleagues in the chamber, he has also earned the dubious distinction of being its smelliest member.
