Meh. She also has a history of violence from her ex. Smart move to tell him the new boyfriend is a scary "gang member". You know, because of the knuckles that spell out MS 13 to the retarded. Twice or more girls I knew asked me to pretend to be their boyfriend to scare off a guy or ex. The simple truth is Garcia has been moved to a low security, vocational training prison that does not allow gang members. This means even El Salvador can't maintain the charade.
Has anyone ever told you your avatar resembles that cat (no pun intended) that comes on before Rachel Maddow on MSNBC? Hold on one sec.... Here ya go....
JFC, he doubled down on the knuckles again today making it clear he believes the photoshopped MS 13 above the tattoos is actually on Garcia's hand. So he either actually believes it or he knows his supporters are the dumbest people on Earth. "Earlier this month, the White House shared a photo of tattoos on his knuckles: a marijuana leaf, a smiley face, a cross and a skull — claiming those symbols stand for "M," "S," "1," "3," and adding the characters as a key to the image with Photoshop. Experts don't think that interpretation of the tattoos is likely — one told CBS News that MS-13 members tend to get tattoos that use devil horns, or the actual letters "MS" or number "13." But in an interview with ABC News' Terry Moran on Tuesday, Trump went even further, arguing over and over that MS-13 is literally on Abrego Garcia's knuckles. "He didn't have the letter 'M,' 'S,' '1,' '3," Moran told Trump. "It says, 'M,' 'S,' '1,' '3,'" Trump insisted. "That was photoshopped? Terry, you can't do that." The president continued to insist the letters were actually on Abrego Garcia's hand, adding that Moran was not being nice by disagreeing with him. "He had 'MS' as clear as you can be, not interpreted," Trump said. "This is why people no longer believe the news, because it's fake news." "
Trump's claim: Kilmar Armando Abrego Garcia “had ‘MS-13’ on his knuckles tattooed. … He had ‘MS’ as clear as you can be. Not 'interpreted.’” President Donald Trump says Kilmar Abrego Garcia has “‘MS-13’ on his knuckles.” Pants on Fire! https://www.politifact.com/factchec...mp/trump-abrego-garcia-hand-tattoos-abc-news/
We have ‘no proof’ Kilmar Abrego Garcia is a gangster, El Salvador minister admits Mistakenly deported illegal immigrant is being held in low security prison where no MS-13 members are jailed https://www.telegraph.co.uk/us/news...-proof-kilmar-abrego-garcia-is-a-gangster-el/ El Salvador has no “proof” that Kilmar Abrego Garcia is a member of the MS-13 gang, the country’s security minister has admitted. The US Supreme Court ordered the Trump administration to “facilitate” Mr Abrego Garcia’s return after he was mistakenly deported to El Salvador in March. The White House initiallyhas refused, insisting Mr Abrego Garcia is a member of the notorious South American gang, allegations his wife and lawyer have denied. In an exclusive interview with The Telegraph, Gustavo Villatoro, El Salvador’s justice and security minister, said Mr Abrego Garcia is currently being held in a low security prison where strictly no gang members are jailed because the US has sent no “evidence” of his criminal history. Mr Villatoro also suggested it was possible El Salvador could facilitate the return of Mr Abrego Garcia “in the future” should Donald Trump request it. His comments are the latest twist in a contentious legal fight that has become a political flashpoint of Mr Trump’s controversial deportation policy, prompting Democrats to fly to El Salvdor to campaign for Mr Abrego Garcia’s release. It comes after Mr Trump said on Tuesday night that he “could” have the El Salvadorian returned to the US but is choosing not to – after previously claiming he had no power to bring the father-of-three back – again insisting he is a member of MS-13. The Trump administration reportedly sent a diplomatic note inquiring about releasing Mr Abrego Garcia, but Nayib Bukele, the president, refused, saying he should remain in El Salvador as he is a Salvadorian citizen, sources told the New York Times. It was not clear whether this was a full-throttled attempt to return Mr Abrego Garcia, or a move to appease Judge Paula Xinis, who is overseeing his case. Mr Abrego Garcia entered the US illegally 14 years ago and was living in Maryland with his wife and children when he was arrested. He was protected under a 2019 court order determining that he could not be deported to El Salvador, but he was sent there around a month ago. Mr Abrego Garcia, 29, was originally imprisoned in El Salvador’s notorious Terrorism Confinement Center, Cecot, a mega prison designed for MS-13 gang members. Mr Villatoro said this is where the “serial killers” of the gangs, who are referred to as “homeboys” are kept, and other gang members are sent to one of the other five prisons designated for gang members. He was then transferred to Centro Industrial prison in Santa Ana, one of the lowest security prisons in the country which is solely for “trusted” inmates who are preparing for release. In this prison inmates can reduce their sentences by rearing dairy cows, making furniture and painting. On Tuesday Mr Villatoro confirmed Mr Abrego Garcia was still being held there. Speaking as he sat at the head of a large wooden table in his government office, he said: “It is a common prison for common criminals.” Asked why Mr Abrego Garcia was being held there, given the White House has claimed he is a member of MS-13 and Nayib Bukele, the president of El Salvador, had called him a “terrorist”, Mr Villatoro said: “We are receiving and asking for information [from the] US, because, remember, he committed [a] crime in [the] US, not in El Salvador.” He added: “But the thing is, he is accused by the US government as a member of MS-13, so if we want to accuse him, we have to receive the whole proof that he is a member of MS.” Pressed on whether this means right now that El Salvador is unsure whether Mr Abrego Garcia is a member of MS-13, Mr Villatoro replied: “Yes, we are waiting for the evidence.” Earlier in the interview, Mr Villatoro said the El Salvadoran government has intelligence on MS-13 gang members living abroad and has sent a list of around 1,000 names to the US of gang members they believe are hiding in the US requesting their deportation. Asked if the El Salvadoran government would facilitate Mr Abrego Garcia’s return should Mr Trump request it, Mr Villatoro, who conducted the interview in English, said: “This is under the possibilities right, we have to cooperate with the US government, with US state and right now, our president has to be clear about the Abrego Garcia status. “We can’t... as El Salvador, we can’t send him to the US, we don’t have the possibility, and of course, we are not trying... to move US terrorists, to move to the US... in the future can pass a lot of things, but all of that has to be according to our agreement and according to the law, of course.” ‘No domestic interest in custody of Garcia’ Simon Sandoval-Moshenberg, Mr Abrego Garcia’s lawyer said: “This confirms what we’ve been saying since the very first hearing in this case, a full month ago, that if the United States made a genuine good faith ask for Kilmar Abrego Garcia’s return, that would happen very quickly. “El Salvador has confirmed that it has no domestic interest in retaining custody of Kilmar Abrego Garcia, and that they’re only doing it pursuant to a contract with the United States of America, under which they’re being paid on a per capita bonus, according to reporting that we’ve seen. “Now we’re at the point where various US government officials are pointing fingers at each other. Everyone’s saying it’s someone else’s fault that this hasn’t happened yet, so it’s time for it to happen now.” On Monday, The Telegraph obtained access to the vast prison where Mr Abrego Garcia is being held with around 8,500 inmates. At the jail, which sits on five acres of land, inmates are given different jobs depending on their skills and interests. In a strictly organised tour in which we were forbidden from speaking with any prisoners who had not been pre-approved by the director, The Telegraph saw inmates bottle-feeding calves, watering flower beds with red roses and painting artwork for public offices. Mr Villatoro said he did not know what sector of work Mr Abrego Garcia had been assigned. On Tuesday Mr Trump told ABC News that Mr Abrego Garcia had “MS-13” tattooed on his knuckles. He previously shared an image which appeared to show tattoos on Mr Abrego Garcia’s hand with “MS-13” digitally added. Photographs from Mr Abrego Garcia’s meeting with Democrat Senator Chris Van Hollen showed tattooed symbols on Mr Abrego Garcia’s hand – including a marijuana leaf, skull, cross and a smiley face with X’s for eyes – but not “MS-13” as Mr Trump alleges. Mr Trump has also referred to Mr Abrego Garcia as a “wife beater”. In 2021 his wife Jennifer Vasquez sought and received a temporary protective order against Mr Abrego Garcia, alleging he had “punched and scratched” her. Ms Vasquez, who is campaigning for Mr Garcia’s return, said she did not move forward with the process because it “did not escalate” and has described her husband as an “excellent father”. Following a wave of gang violence in 2022, Mr Bukele declared a temporary state of emergency in the Central American country and waived key constitutional rights. The government has arrested 84,000 people – more than 1 per cent of the country’s population – the vast majority of whom remain in prison without a court sentence. While the crackdown has fuelled waves of human rights criticisms, it also prompted a sharp decline in crime and homicide rates, causing Mr Bukele’s popularity to soar. Human rights organisations allege there have been over 300 deaths inside prisons since the state of exception was introduced, and inmates are tortured and denied access to food, water, clothing and health care. Asked whether innocent people had been swept up in the mass arrests, Mr Villatoro said “no judicial system is perfect” and families must wait for those who have been imprisoned to appear in court. Many of those already imprisoned for several years have not been given a court date and have had no contact with their families or lawyers. Mr Villatoro also said it would be a “possibility” that El Salvador could build a prison for US citizens, following Mr Trump’s claims he would like to deport “homegrowns”, but it would depend on both country’s legal systems. “Right now is the new era to build new agreements, new relations using our common sense and how to defeat criminal organisations from common sense view, not how the UN and NGO says,” Mr Villatoro said. The minister added that he believes Mr Bukele and El Salvador are being “attacked” because “bad minds” – such as the UN, NGOs and “globalists” want to keep “Latin America poor and violent”. Mr Abrego Garcia was arrested in March 2019 by the Hyattsville City Police Department in Maryland after being found outside a Home Depot store with a known MS-13 gang member and two others suspected of being linked to the gang. He was wearing a Chicago Bulls hat which the police said was “indicative of Hispanic gang culture” and showed he was a member in “good standing” with MS-13, according to the report. According to the document, an officer spoke with a “past and proven reliable source” who advised that Mr Abrego Garcia was an “active member of MS-13”. Mr Abrego Garcia’s lawyers have said their client was not charged with any crimes and insist he is not a member of MS-13. The Telegraph has contacted the Trump administration for comment.

DEA nominee confirms validity of Kilmar Abrego Garcia's alleged MS-13 tattoos WASHINGTON (TNND) — Drug Enforcement Agency (DEA) administrator nominee Terrance Cole on Wednesday confirmed during a Senate confirmation hearing that tattoos on the hand of Kilmar Abrego Garcia indicate his membership in the criminal gang MS-13. President Donald Trump sparked debate this week after sharing a photo of Garcia’s knuckle tattoos showing a marijuana leaf, a smiley face, a cross and a skull. He argued these images literally spelled out “MS-13,” rather than symbolically invoking it, leading to pushback during an interview with ABC News.
