NEVER A 'MARYLAND MAN': Karoline Leavitt Goes Scorched Earth on Democrats, Media Mob in Statement on Indictment of Kilmar Abrego Garcia

posted by Hannity Staff - 6.06.25

Members of the Trump Administration, including White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt, unloaded on Democrats and the fake news media mob after the indictment of suspected MS-13 gang member Kilmar Abrego Garcia on Friday.

Leavitt called Democrats “unhinged” for supporting Abrego Garcia, who has been indicted for more than 100 human smuggling trips. She also blasted the “Fake News Media” for being “played like fools.”

Leavitt’s comments came after AG Pam Bondi announced that Abrego Garcia would be flown back to the U.S. to face justice for his crimes.

Leavitt’s full comments below:

The Justice Department’s Grand Jury Indictment against Abrego Garcia proves the unhinged Democrat Party was wrong, and their stenographers in the Fake News Media were once again played like fools. Abrego Garcia was never an innocent “Maryland Man”– Abrego Garcia is an illegal alien terrorist, gang member, and human trafficker who has spent his entire life abusing innocent people, especially women and the most vulnerable. Abrego Garcia will now return to the United States to answer for his crimes and meet the full force of American justice. The Democrat lawmakers, namely Democrat Senator Chris Van Hollen, and every single so-called ‘journalist’ who defended this illegal criminal abuser must immediately apologize to Garcia’s victims. The Trump Administration will continue to hold criminals accountable to the fullest extent of the law.

Deputy White House Chief of Staff Stephen Miller also reacted to the story, confirming that Abrego Garcia would be deported once more after serving time for his “many grave crimes.”

“The alien terrorist from El Salvador will be jailed, sentenced and incarcerated for the many grave crimes that have been uncovered and then he will be deported back to El Salvador again,” Miller shared on X.

Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem also reacted to the Abrego Garcia news, saying, “Justice awaits this Salvadorian man.”

Noem’s full comments below:

For the past two months, the media and Democrats have burnt to the ground any last shred of credibility they had left by glorifying Kilmar Abrego Garcia— a known MS-13 gang member, human trafficker, and serial domestic abuser. Today, the United States of America confronts Kilmar Abrego Garcia with overwhelming evidence— he is being indicted by a grand jury for human smuggling, including children, and conspiracy. Justice awaits this Salvadoran man.
