Trump White House Continues To Mock Kilmar Abrego Garcia On Social Media
HuffPost
The White House posted an image of Abrego Garcia reminiscent of the 2008 "Hope" portrait of Barack Obama, insisting the Salvadoran man is in a gang.
Donald Trump’s administration continued to mock Kilmar Abrego Garcia, the Maryland man who was wrongfully deported to a brutal Salvadoran prison, as it now attempts to deport him to Uganda.
The new deportation attempt comes after Abrego Garcia declined a plea deal that would have sent him to Costa Rica if he pleaded guilty to human smuggling charges.
Earlier this month, the 30-year-old Salvadoran immigrant was released from a Tennessee jail where he had been detained since June after he was brought back to the U.S. from El Salvador.
The Trump administration has long attempted to portray Abrego Garcia as a violent gang member, and ICE alleged that he was a member of MS-13 due to his Chicago Bulls attire and the accusation of an informant.
On Monday, the White House’s social media team doubled down on its allegations that Abrego Garcia is in the gang, posting a photo of him reminiscent of artist Shepard Fairey’s 2008 portrait of Barack Obama — except instead of “HOPE,” the image says “MS-13.”
