Democrat politicians are sitting outside of the MS-13 illegal immigrants courtroom hearing in Baltimore office
Reports indicate that some Democrat politicians have been following the case of Kilmar Abrego Garcia, who was deported from the US to El Salvador in March 2025 despite a court order barring his removal
The Trump administration claims Mr. Abrego Garcia is a member of the MS-13 gang, according to NBC News, while his lawyers and supporters argue he has been wrongly deported and that his due process rights have been violated.
Specifically:
- Maryland Senator Chris Van Hollen visited Mr. Abrego Garcia in El Salvador and advocated for his release and return to the US.
- Some Democrats in the House have also expressed interest in traveling to El Salvador to visit Mr. Abrego Garcia.
- Democrats generally have argued that the case of Mr. Abrego Garcia highlights concerns about the Trump administration’s immigration policies and the rights of individuals facing deportation.
It’s important to note that the Trump administration has strongly criticized the Democrats’ involvement, accusing them of prioritizing a deported individual with alleged ties to MS-13 over the safety of Americans and arguing that Mr. Abrego Garcia is a dangerous criminal who should not be allowed back into the country.
