Democrats Are ‘Detached from Reality,’ Defending Gang Bangers Over Victims [WATCH]

Attorney General of the United States Pam Bondi delivered pointed criticism of Democratic lawmakers during an appearance on Fox News Monday, accusing them of turning a blind eye to the violence caused by international criminal networks like MS-13.

Bondi’s comments came in response to a recent move by Democratic Senator Chris Van Hollen of Maryland, who requested a meeting with El Salvador’s President Nayib Bukele.

Van Hollen is seeking the return of Kilmar Abrego Garcia, a Maryland man he claims was wrongly deported.

Bondi, appearing on Jesse Watters Primetime, rejected that characterization and defended the deportation, citing the Trump administration’s aggressive posture toward violent transnational gangs.

“These people are so detached from reality that they don’t care about the victims of crimes in this country.

There is a reason that Donald Trump declared MS-13 as a foreign terrorist organization,” Bondi told Watters.

“Because they have come to our country, they are highly organized. They are murdering people. They are raping people. They are organized crime at its worst.”

Bondi reiterated her support for President Trump’s decision to classify MS-13 as a foreign terrorist group, a move that expanded federal authorities’ ability to prosecute the gang’s members and affiliates.

The designation, she said, reflects the scale of the group’s criminal activity and its influence across American communities.

She also praised President Bukele for cooperating with U.S. immigration enforcement and accepting the return of convicted gang members, including MS-13 operatives, to El Salvador.

One such individual, reportedly tied to the Garcia case, is currently held in one of the country’s high-security “mega-prisons.”

“They are spread rampant throughout our country, and we are going to rid our country of MS-13 and TdA [Tren de Aragua],” Bondi said, referring to another violent transnational gang.

“We’re just thankful that President Bukele will take them in a prison in El Salvador.”

During the segment, Jesse Watters questioned the legality of transferring individuals who are American citizens or permanent residents to foreign detention centers.

“Well, Jesse, these are Americans who he is saying who have committed the most heinous crimes in our country, and crime is going to decrease dramatically because he [President Trump] has given us a directive to make America safe again,” Bondi replied.

“These people need to be locked up as long as they can, as long as the law allows. We’re not going to let them go anywhere, and if we have to build more prisons in our country, we will do it.”

The remarks come as the Trump administration continues to prioritize aggressive enforcement against transnational criminal organizations.

Bondi’s comments reflect the administration’s stance that gang-related violence must be addressed not only with arrests but also with expanded legal classifications and international cooperation.

El Salvador’s President Bukele has received attention for his controversial but widely supported crackdown on organized crime, including his administration’s construction of large-scale prison complexes designed to house thousands of gang members.

U.S. officials have cited his approach as a model for handling transnational threats that spill over into American communities.

Attorney General Bondi’s statements also signaled continued coordination between U.S. and Central American authorities as part of broader security and immigration reforms.
