Border czar Tom Homan came out swinging Wednesday, unloading on Democrats while Maryland Sen. Chris Van Hollen jetted off to El Salvador, desperate to drag back suspected MS-13 thug Kilmar Abrego Garcia. Van Hollen’s crying foul, claiming the guy was “wrongfully abducted” from the U.S. Homan? He’s not buying that sob story for a second.
“He wasn’t abducted. He’s an MS-13 gang member, classified as a terrorist that was removed from this country, so we got rid of a dangerous person,” Homan told Fox & Friends, probably while sipping coffee strong enough to wake a coma patient. “An El Salvadoran national was returned to the country of El Salvador, so he’s home.”
Homan’s doubling down, channeling the Trump crew’s line that Abrego Garcia’s a “public safety threat.” His deportation? “Exactly what should have happened,” Homan says, ready to throw hands with anyone trying to sneak this guy back into the States.
But what’s got Homan’s blood boiling is Van Hollen playing superhero for an MS-13 suspect while illegal immigrant crime festers back home—yep, even in Maryland. “I’m disgusted,” Homan fumed, pointing to the murder of Rachel Morin. “Listen to the testimony and listen to the mother on ‘Hannity’ last night. If you’re not human... your heart wasn’t broken. It [happened] in his state, but rather than taking care of the constituents in his state, the victims of illegal crime in his state, he’s going to run to El Salvador to protect MS-13 terrorists.”
This drama’s heating up after President Trump’s Oval Office powwow with El Salvador’s Nayib Bukele, and Van Hollen’s begging for his own face-to-face with the Salvadoran prez to spring Abrego Garcia. Meanwhile, the Supreme Court’s stirring the pot, upholding an order last week that’s got the government scrambling to “facilitate” Abrego Garcia’s release from El Salvador’s clutches and treat his case like he never left. Good luck with that.
Democrats and Abrego Garcia’s lawyer are pushing back, swearing up and down he’s not tied to the gang. But Trump’s team and Bukele? They’re on the same page, saying there’s no way this guy’s waltzing back into the U.S. Bukele put it bluntly: “How can I smuggle a terrorist into the U.S.? I don’t have the power to return him to the United States.” Translation: Nice try, but no dice.
