Watch: CNN Commentator Masterfully Does in Chris Van Hollen and Dems Over Abrego Garcia

As we reported, the guy Democrats have spent so much time over - Kilmar Abrego Garcia - has been returned to the U.S. But he wasn't brought back because of them. He's here to face new charges regarding conspiracy to transport illegal aliens, including members of MS-13, according to the indictment against him.

Despite that Sen. Chris Van Hollen (D-MD) was still trying to take a victory lap on CNN with Anderson Cooper and pretending like the Democrats hadn't embraced the man. He even said that President Donald Trump should apologize to Abrego Garcia, proving that the Democrats just keep wanting to go over that illegal alien cliff.

Poor CNN commentator Scott Jennings had to deal with the wild takes from the liberals on a CNN panel as a result, as our sister site Townhall reported.

First was the take that being in the country illegally isn't a "crime," according to panelist Bakari Sellers.

Yes, it's a crime if you enter the country illegally, under 8 U.S.C. Sec. 1325. And yes, while unlawful presence, such as overstaying a visa, is a civil offense, it can still get you deported. I'm not sure what the Democrats think they're arguing here.

This was a problem that Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D-TX) seemed to have as well. She went even further, claiming illegal entry is not a crime.

Abrego Garcia has not been charged regarding any actions alleged by his wife, but she did file for two protective orders, as we have reported.

But notice how the liberals seem to want to ignore the history and the import of the new charges.

Jennings masterfully did in Sen. Van Hollen over his embrace of "Saint Kilmar" Abrego Garcia.

I suspect that Maryland Senator Chris Van Hollen when he heard that Saint Abrego Garcia was coming back, took a shower, put on his nice suit, got on OpenTable, found out what maybe party of two reservation they could get for tonight — so they could continue the bromance they started when he went back to visit Saint Abrego in El Salvador.

Then Jennings listed what he thinks the possible outcomes will be.

Number one, he gets convicted of this stuff, and goes to prison for a long time."
Number two, he gets acquitted and goes back to El Salvador... Either way, it's what the White House said all along.
There's no future where 'the Maryland man' goes back to Maryland to live quietly in the suburbs. That is over!

Later on, Jennings humorously said on X about what he had to deal with on CNN, "I’m like Bill Murray in 'Groundhog Day.' Someday I’ll find a way out of this conversation about Saint Abrego Garcia. Today isn’t it."
