Summary

Trump reportedly held up a digitally altered image of the hand of Kilmar Abrego Garcia, a Maryland man who was deported by the Trump administration, in an attempt to prove Garcia is a gang member.

Trump can be seen holding a printed-out photo... demonstrating that "MS-13" is tattooed across his knuckles.

"This is the hand of the man that the Democrats feel should be brought back," Trump posted. However, many have pointed out that the image appears photoshopped.

"MS-13 looks like it was typed on the photo." "Needing to have a photo doctored... is definitely something a psychopath would do."

According to court documents, the only "evidence" they have that he was a gang member, is the testimony of an unidentified informant that was never cross examined in court. He testified on paper that Garcia was a member of a branch of MS-13 that is only active in a part of New York that Garcia had never been to before.
