Democrats rushed to defend Kilmar Abrego Garcia, a violent illegal alien gang member deported by President Donald Trump’s administration.
Garcia is accused of being a dangerous MS-13 gang member, a human trafficker, and a domestic abuser.
Sen. Chris Van Hollen (D-MD) was one of those Democrats leading the calls for the return of the so-called “Maryland Man.”
However, he’s now seemingly changing his tune and reportedly distancing himself from the accused MS-13 gang member, according to Breitbart.
U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi recently announced serious charges against Garcia.
Garcia will be extradited back to the United States to face multiple federal charges.
But his fanbase in the liberal media and the Democratic Party ranks is suddenly pretty quiet about him.
Bondi’s Department of Justice (DOJ) released a bombshell, 10-page indictment detailing the serious charges Garcia faces.
The charges expose shocking patterns of sick behavior, including abuse and child trafficking.
Breitbart noted:
“In Bondi’s announcement on Friday, she detailed the charges against Abrego Garcia — accusing him of being part of a massive human smuggling network that runs from Mexico well into the interior of the United States.”
“This is especially disturbing … Garcia, is also alleged with transporting minor children,” the statement read.
“The defendant traded the innocence of minor children for profit.
“There are even more disturbing facts that the grand jury uncovered.”
The indictment papers got even worse, detailing Garcia’s various illegal activities.
“The defendant abused undocumented alien females, according to co-conspirators who were under his control while transporting them throughout our country,” it reads.
“This defendant trafficked firearms and narcotics throughout our country on multiple occasions.”
Van Hollen might try to downplay his involvement, but he was deeply involved in attempting to return Garcia to the United States.
After the charges were announced, Van Hollen released a statement on social media, saying it’s not “about the man,” but rather it’s about the “Constitution.”
After months of ignoring our Constitution, it seems the Trump Admin has relented to our demands for compliance with court orders and due process for Kilmar Abrego Garcia.
This has never been about the man—it’s about his constitutional rights & the rights of all.

Social media users also slammed Van Hollen.
“Great job Chris!” one X user wrote.
“Now your party will be defending in the midterms your choice to advocate tirelessly for the return of a soon-to-be convicted human trafficking wife-beater to the United States. Best of luck!”
