White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt laid out the facts today at a short press briefing about MS-13 gang member Kilmar Abrego Garcia, responding to the lunacy among Democrats and in the media.

She specifically cited Democratic Senator Chris Van Hollen, who traveled to El Salvador and is spewing lies about the Trump administration and Garcia.
