Homan to Newsmax: Abrego Garcia has Himself to Blame

Border Czar Tom Homan told Newsmax on Friday that Kilmar Abrego Garcia “is to blame” for the complicated predicament he finds himself in after being deported to a prison in El Salvador by the Trump administration.

In March, Garcia was arrested in Maryland and deported from the country following what prosecutors say was an administrative error in associating him with the violent MS-13 gang. On Thursday, the Supreme Court ordered the Trump administration to “facilitate” the return of Garcia, a Salvadoran married to an American citizen. Homan was unsympathetic to Garcia’s situation, saying he shouldn’t have entered the U.S. illegally to begin with.

“The aliens are to blame when they enter this country illegally, which is a crime. He’s an MS-13 gang member, according to our intelligence and even that of the intelligence of El Salvador. He was given withholding and removal from El Salvador because of fear of gang violence,” Homan said during an appearance on “The Chris Salcedo Show.”
