<p>Democrats have made a cause célèbre out of Kilmar Abrego Garcia. He is the illegal migrant who was deported to El Salvador. He has been the point of the spear for the evergreen anti-Trump Resistance Movement – working overtime to stop virtually all deportations.</p>



<p>Contrary to what his supporters claim, Abrego Garcia did have “due process”. He appeared before immigration judges on more than one occasion. He was determined to be involved with the notorious MS-13 gang and eligible for deportation. He appealed and lost the appeal. A different judge accepted Abrego Garcia’s claimed fear of being returned to his home country of El Salvador. The judge ordered that he not be sent to El Salvador. </p>



<p>Due to what they described as an administrative error, Abrego Garcia was sent to a prison in El Salvador. Democrats and the media allies went on a campaign to “bring him home” – as if the United States was his “home”.</p>



<p>They developed a picture of Abrego Garcia as a hard working father who has never been convicted of a crime. In an effort to bring Abrego Garcia back to the United States, Democrat Maryland Senator Chris Van Hollen traveled to El Salvador to have a tête-à-tête with Abrego Garcia. He returned to America and made the rounds of the news media to plead Abrego Garcia’s case in the court-of-public-opinion.</p>



<p>Shortly thereafter, a congressional delegation of Democrat legislators travelled to El Salvador to meet with Abrego Garcia and draw more media attention to his case. They were denied the meeting, but did garner the desired publicity.</p>



<p>The Abrego Garcia fan club continued to cast his image as an innocent fellow who should never have been taken from his loving wife and children. They were doing a pretty good job of gaslighting the American people with their denials of gang involvement &#8230; lies about lack of due process &#8230; and misrepresentation of his family life. </p>



<p>But truth is persistent. ; Since launching the choir boy image of Abrego Garcia, more and more facts have come to light.</p>



<p><strong>MS13 ties</strong></p>



<p>With regard to his membership or association with MS13, there was sufficient evidence for the first judge to order deportation on that basis. ; The FBI had testimony from a confidential witness who said that Abrego Garcia was a member of the Western Clique Chapter of MS13 – with the rank of “Chequeo.” ; His street name was “Chele”.</p>



<p>In addition, Abrego Garcia wore the “uniform” of MS13 – a hoodie and a Chicago Bulls cap. When arrested, Abrego Garcia had American currency with the eyes, ears and mouth of the American Founders scratched off of bills – a gang reminder to maintain secrecy.</p>



<p>In December of 2022, Tennessee Highway Patrol stopped a vehicle being driven by Jose Ramon Hernandez-Reyes – a man previous convicted of human smuggling. There were eight others in the vehicle. They all provided the same home address – which was the same home address as Abrego Garcia. They said they were travelling from Texas to Maryland to find jobs – though there was no luggage in the car for such a long journey. These raised suspicions of human trafficking. Police reported the incident to federal authorities and Homeland Security flagged the incident as potential human trafficking.</p>



<p>Abrego Garcia had been previously detained in 2019 in a Maryland Home Depot parking lot in the company of a known MS13 member.</p>



<p>It is series of events that creates a strong circumstantial case against Abrego Garcia.</p>



<p><strong>Domestic Abuse</strong></p>



<p>The guy Democrats and the media cast as a “father of the year” had some serious domestic issues in his past. ; Abrego Garcia had not one, but TWO, protective orders filed by his wife. ; Vasquez Sura. ; The first was in August 2020, in which she alleged that he had locked her and the children (including the special needs child) in a room and denied them food. She also claimed physical abuse. ; In her court filing, Sura listed examples going back to 2019.</p>



<p>The second Order was issued in May of 2021. ; Sura accused Abrego Garcia of ripping her clothes and scratching and bruising her. ; She said she filed the second order out of caution over previous abuse, but did not pursue the case.</p>



<p>In explaining her emotional appeals for his return, she said that they have been” working through” their issues. She said he is a good husband and father. But that is often what abused wives say when they reunite with their abuser. But even if he is no longer an abuser, Abrego Garcia’s history of domestic violence is still a compelling case for deportation.</p>



<p><strong>Lack of criminal record</strong></p>



<p>Those pleading the case for his return often cite his lack of a criminal record. A criminal record is not a requirement for deportation. Many individuals here illegally &#8212; and subsequently deported – have no criminal record. There is a wide range of behavioral issue that can convince an immigration judge that you are an undesirable person – a threat to the public. The fact that you entered the country illegally is a factor. If you have been arrested or had serious employment issues are factors. Gang membership – even if never arrested or convicted of a crime – gets you booted out of the country.</p>



<p><strong>Asylum eligibility</strong></p>



<p>There is also the issue of eligibility for asylum. ; Most illegal border crossers claim asylum. ; They can remain in America until their immigration hearing – which can take up to six years. ; Under American asylum laws, he vast majority of those seeking asylum are determined to be ineligible.</p>



<p>Those who do not appear at their scheduled hearing are deemed to be deplorable – even if they have broken no laws in the interim period. ; The hundreds of thousands of got-aways are also subject to immediate deportation.</p>



<p>The vast majority of the millions of people who have crossed the American border illegally in recent years are ineligible for asylum &#8230; period. ; That means deportation.</p>



<p><strong>American citizens</strong></p>



<p>American citizens are not deportable – and unless there is a mistake in a case or two – none ever are. ; The cases that Democrats point to are birthright anchor babies who leave with their deported parents. ; Whether to take them or leave them with relatives in the United States is up to the parents. ; Those anchor babies are NOT being deported – as those on the left claim.</p>



<p><strong>Visa holders</strong></p>



<p>Many foreigners hold various visas which allow them to be in the United States for various reasons – visitors, students, diplomats, special workers. Their status is a privilege granted by the Department of State as part of the Executive Branch overseen by the President. Visas are not granted or ordered by any court. Visa holders are here &#8220;at the pleasure” of the United States government. Visas can be withdrawn “at the pleasure” of the government. One can legitimately debate the propriety of issuing or withdrawing a visa, but not the right of the government to do so at any time for any reason. And without a visa, a person becomes deportable.</p>



<p><strong>Democrats eating crow</strong></p>



<p>As more and more is learned about Abrego Garcia – and as more people see through Democrats&#8217; efforts to thwart deportation at every turn – there comes a backlash to their immigration policies and mendacious narratives. Van Hollen is rationalizing his visit to El Salvador faster than David Hogg at a gun show. He now says he was not advocating for Abrego Garcia, the man, but for “due process.” Un huh.</p>



<p>Those members of Congress who also traveled to El Salvador to promote the case for Abrego Garcia have suddenly grown silent. It has left House leaders squirming and the left-wing media reducing the intensity of the spotlight they previously gave to those advocating for Abrego Garcia. </p>



<p>Apparently, the gaslight cannot compete with the bright sunshine of truth. ; Democrats hate Trump so much that it makes them crazy. ; What else could explain their longtime support of illegal immigration that has been so detrimental to the American people?</p>



<p><strong>Summary</strong></p>



<p>It is important to understand that Abrego Garcia has no right to be in America. He came here illegally, and he behaved badly. He has had his due process. Even if he were to be brought back, he would be eligible for deportation – just not to El Salvador. And he would be deported.</p>



<p>Cleaning up the mess created by President Biden and his like-minded Democrat allies is difficult and complicated. Booting hundreds of thousands of people who should not be in America – and especially those who present a clear and present danger to the life, health and welfare of American citizens – is an existential task. </p>



<p>Those who thwart those efforts and take up common cause with the gangbangers, drug cartellians, human traffickers, murders, rapists and the rest of the motely put Democrats on the wrong side of the law. Opposition to the deportation of ANY illegal border crosser who is ineligible for asylum undermines the rule-of-law.</p>



<p>Unfortunately, Trump Derangement Syndrome appears to impose less harm on those who are afflicted – and more harm on those who are not.</p>



<p>So, there ‘tis.</p>

The case of a Abrego Garcia turns against Democrats
