(Letter to the Editor - Photo Illustration - MetroCreativeConnection)

The letter in the Sunday, April 27 newspaper titled “Stand up for our America” contained so much erroneous misinformation I had to respond.

Kilmar Abrego Garcia was never an American or a Maryland resident, but a citizen of El Salvador. Garcia illegally entered the U.S. in 2012. In 2019, he was arrested by the police and put into deportation proceedings. A judge granted him a withholding of removal, meaning he would be deported, but not to El Salvador. Unsurprisingly, the Biden administration didn’t deport him. Under Trump, Garcia was arrested and mistakenly deported to El Salvador.

As for Trump defying the Supreme Court, where was the left’s outrage when Biden twice defied the Supreme Court over student loan forgiveness?

As for Garcia, as an El Salvadoran citizen, the government of El Salvador may imprison him for crimes he committed there and may refuse to extradite him back to the U.S. Short of sending U.S. troops into El Salvador and freeing Garcia by force, Trump’s hands are tied.

Doing so would be an act of war and the Democrats would demand Trump’s impeachment.

Two different U.S. judges ruled Garcia was an MS-13 gang member. He has MS-13 gang tattoos on his knuckles. He was [allegedly] a human trafficker and an [alleged] two-time wife beater. [Brackets inserted by editor]. Fox News aired a photo of his wife’s hand-written complaint to the police.

Garcia is now in prison where he belongs and good riddance to him.

Where was the left’s outrage when Biden’s gestapos rounded up hundreds of peaceful protesters who were at the Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021, who committed no crime, but were put in filthy, unsanitary cells in prison and denied due process?

Trump has no hate based on skin color or toward immigrants. Trump welcomes immigrants coming the U.S. legally.

Trump paying $10 million to El Salvador for imprisoning Garcia there? Trump deporting American citizens to El Salvador? Those are fake news fabrications. The entire letter is a regurgitation of fake news propaganda, from CNN, CBS, MSNBC, etc. Those networks lied to Americans for years, covering up Biden’s cognitive decline and pushing the Trump-Russian collusion hoax. Who would believe anything they broadcast today?

Trump isn’t a dictator, but a liberator freeing us from Biden’s dictatorship (and his gestapo), ridding us of violent illegals. Trump is standing up for our America.
