U.S. Senator Chris Van Hollen was denied access to Kilmar Abrego Garcia, a wrongfully deported Salvadoran man held in a notorious prison in El Salvador. Despite a Supreme Court ruling and official acknowledgment of error, El Salvador refuses to release him. The senator accused Trump’s administration of paying to keep Abrego imprisoned. President Bukele remains firm, defying diplomatic pressure. Abrego’s case raises serious concerns over the misuse of the Alien Enemies Act and wrongful deportations under false MS-13 allegations. Lawyers claim no trial, no charges, and no legal access.

00:00I've had back-to-back meetings here in El Salvador with our team from the American
00:21Embassy, with the Vice President of El Salvador, with human rights groups.
00:26And the entire purpose has been to bring Abrego Garcia home because U.S. courts have determined
00:36that he was illegally abducted from the United States and now finds himself in the most notorious
00:42prison in El Salvador.
00:46The Supreme Court, nine to nothing, has told the Trump administration they must facilitate
00:51his return home.
00:53They've refused to do it.
00:55So I called upon the government of El Salvador to do it unless they can provide evidence
01:01that he's been involved in MS-13.
01:03They said they had no evidence.
01:06So this is not about MS-13.
01:10I know President Trump wants to make this about gang violence.
01:15I have been fighting MS-13 probably longer than Donald Trump even knew about MS-13.
01:23I care about every victim of crime.
01:27That's why we have a court system to hold people accountable when they commit crimes, to make
01:34sure that they get the punishment they deserve.
01:38We also have a court system to make sure that people who have not committed crimes or not
01:43been convicted of crimes are not disappeared out of the United States and sent to a notorious
01:52prison in El Salvador, like Abrego Garcia.
01:56This is simply about letting him have his day in court.
02:00We use the courts to make sure that we don't convict people who are not guilty and that we convict
02:07those who are.
02:37So, I'll see you, thank you, don't I'm a man.
02:38Very open source.
02:39Yeah we have golden APIs obviously.
02:40Thank you, thank you, it is dignified and expensive.
02:41Please leave, leave.
02:42And be everyone and take me
