Trump posted today (April 21st) and said: "The radical crazy Democrats and their accomplices in the fake news media are slandering Khyler Armando Abrego Garcia into a very kind innocent person, which is completely a bare-faced, dangerous lie. Garcia has been identified as a member of the violent MS-13 gang by two different courts, illegally entered our country, and has already been deported. It's despicable that liberals and mainstream media hate our country, obsessed with protecting criminals instead of maintaining the security of our borders, streets, and families. Those who lie to the American people for the benefit of violent criminals must be held accountable by institutions and courts. Let America become great again!"
Khyler Armando Abrego Garcia is a Salvadoran. He fled to the United States in 2011 due to gang threats and married an American citizen in 2016. In 2019, he was arrested after being pointed out by a police informant as an MS-13 member, although confirmed to have illegally entered, he was granted a "deferred deportation order" due to family circumstances and case doubts. However, after Trump came to power and cracked down on illegal immigrants, MS-13 was defined as a terrorist organization, and Garcia was arrested under the U.S. Foreign Enemies Act in March 2025 and deported to El Salvador. The U.S. local court ruled that the deportation was an "illegal act," requiring the government to help him return to the U.S., and the Supreme Court also supported this ruling but did not specify the return date.
Supporters of Garcia represented by Democratic senators believe that he has no criminal record and demand the government allow him to return to the U.S., while Trump and other Republican officials emphasize the illegality of his illegal entry. Both sides stick to their own arguments, and it is difficult to reach a consensus. This incident has attracted widespread attention in American society and become a political issue. People are divided due to their respective positions; some support Trump's view of cracking down on illegal immigrants to maintain security, while others believe that the rights of immigrants like Garcia, who have family ties and no clear evidence of crime, should be protected. Public opinion in society has polarized.
