Summary
US Senator Chris Van Hollen defended the Constitution and fired back at California Gov. Gavin Newsom, who said that the wrongful deportation of Kilmar Abrego Garcia was “the distraction of the day.”
“Anyone who is not prepared to stand up and fight for the Constitution doesn’t deserve to lead,” Van Hollen said.
He visited El Salvador to meet with Abrego Garcia, whose deportation the Trump administration called an “administrative error.”
“Right now, we have a lawless president… who is ignoring the order of the Supreme Court of the United States to facilitate [Abrego Garcia’s] return.”
Not only tiresome, which he really is, but he’s also just a stereotypical politician who talks in speeches and doublespeak, even in intimate settings, so you never actually know what he believes. Listen to him give an interview to a friendly reporter from a liberal outlet. He can barely answer the simplest questions without sounding like the most cookie-cutter mainstream Democrat. That’s not what people want anymore.
We need a down to earth candidate like AOC who communicates like a human being. Not a greasy rich white guy who talks like the most generic politician with no genuine values.
But I don’t want him to die, I just want him to go away and stop pushing himself on us.
