Trump, Bukele Confront CNN's Collins Over Deportation Dispute

During a heated press conference in the Oval Office, President Trump mocked CNN correspondent Kaitlan Collins while meeting with El Salvador's President Nayib Bukele. Trump criticized Collins for her questioning about Kilmar Abrego García, an undocumented man deported from the U.S. despite having received legal protection from an immigration judge. He dismissed her inquiries, stating that the U.S. had no obligation to return García to Maryland, emphasizing that he was in the country illegally and was a member of the MS-13 gang. Attorney General Pam Bondi and other officials supported Trump's stance, asserting that the U.S. would facilitate a return only if El Salvador requested it. Bukele praised Trump's border enforcement record and criticized the media for not adequately covering positive developments. This exchange highlighted ongoing tensions between the Trump administration and the media regarding immigration issues.
