Trump brings up Kilmar Abrego Garcia's tattoos
In a post on Truth Social, President Trump said that the tattoo was affiliated with the street gang MS-13.
“This is the hand of the man that the Democrats feel should be brought back to the United States, because he is such “a fine and innocent person.” They said he is not a member of MS-13, even though he’s got MS-13 tattooed onto his knuckles, and two Highly Respected Courts found that he was a member of MS-13, beat up his wife, etc. I was elected to take bad people out of the United States, among other things. I must be allowed to do my job. MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!” the 78-year-old wrote.
Meanwhile, Senator Chris Van Hollen, who traveled to El Salvador to meet Abrego Garcia, said that the 29-year-old had been ‘traumatized’ in prison.
"This is about safeguarding the constitutional rights of everyone living in the United States," Van Hollen said on Friday.
