The Trump administration faced bipartisan backlash for the deportation of Kilmar Abrego Garcia, a Salvadorian citizen unlawfully returned to El Salvador due to an alleged "administrative error." Senators from both parties criticized the situation, with Sen. John Kennedy labeling it a "screw up" but refraining from calling for Garcia's return. Senator Chris Van Hollen, who visited Garcia in El Salvador, described the events as a "constitutional crisis" and advocated for U.S. pressure on El Salvador to facilitate his return. The Trump administration refused to comply with a court order for Garcia's return, citing the inability to force Salvadoran compliance.
"The case marks a constitutional crisis," said Sen. Chris Van Hollen, urging for pressure on El Salvador's government to return Abrego Garcia to the U.S.
"This is the hand of the man that the Democrats feel should be brought back to the United States," stated Trump, referring to the tattooed knuckles of Abrego Garcia.
