“Any comment on this, Marco Rubio? How about you, JD Vance? Elon Musk?” Favreau posted on social media. “You just admitted to accidentally sending an innocent father from Maryland to a torture dungeon in El Salvador. And you refuse to do anything about it.”
Vance wasted no time setting the record straight, exposing the left’s selective storytelling.
“My comment is that according to the court document you apparently didn’t read, he was a convicted MS-13 gang member with no legal right to be here,” Vance shot back. “My further comment is that it’s gross to get fired up about gang members getting deported while ignoring citizens they victimize.”
The blunt response immediately rattled liberal journalists, including Kyle Cheney, a Politico legal affairs reporter. Cheney attempted to nitpick Vance’s wording, accusing him of misrepresenting the man’s criminal record.
“Vance here, mocking Jon Favreau for not reading the court filing, says the deported man was a ‘convicted’ gang member,” Cheney claimed. “The court filing does not say that. It says he was denied bond in 2019 over an informant’s claim he was in MS-13. That’s not a conviction.”
Vance, who holds a law degree, was not about to let Cheney’s misleading argument go unchallenged. He responded with a fact-filled takedown, exposing the full context that mainstream media outlets conveniently ignored.
“Kyle Cheney, a ‘legal affairs reporter,’ is apparently unable or unwilling to look at the facts here,” Vance stated. “In 2019, an Immigration Judge (under the first Trump administration) determined that the deported man was, in fact, a member of the MS-13 gang. He also apparently had multiple traffic violations for which he failed to appear in court. A real winner.”
Just Released: Trump White House Collector’s Bobblehead!
Vance continued by dismantling the left’s attempt to turn the criminal illegal alien into a sympathetic figure:
“It is telling that the entire American media is going to run a propaganda operation today making you think an innocent ‘father of 3’ was apprehended by a gulag. Here are the relevant facts:
- The man is an illegal immigrant with no right to be in our country.
- An immigration judge determined he was a member of the MS-13 gang.
- Because he is not a citizen, he does not get a full jury trial by peers. In other words, he received whatever ‘due process’ he was entitled to.”
The left’s repeated attempts to twist the facts on illegal immigration and gang crime are nothing new. While liberal media outlets like The Atlantic push misleading narratives to tug at heartstrings, the reality remains clear: this deported individual was an illegal immigrant with ties to one of the most violent gangs in the world.
Once again, Vance proved that Team Trump refuses to bow to the left’s deceptive attacks. As the administration continues its commitment to securing the border and protecting American citizens, the media’s misinformation campaign only highlights why so many Americans have lost faith in mainstream journalism.
