Border czar Tom Homan appeared on “Hannity” Wednesday night and listed eight questions for Democrats who traveled to El Salvador to visit illegal migrant Kilmar Armando Abrego Garcia, asking where they’ve been the past four years.

Since March, Democrats have rallied behind Abrego Garcia after he was deported to El Salvador’s mega-prison by the Trump administration, with Democrat Maryland Sen. Chris Van Hollen leading the push for lawmakers to meet with him in Central America. When Fox host Sean Hannity asked Homan if he had a message for the lawmakers — some of whom made the trip on taxpayer dollars —the border czar said they turned a blind eye to the issue under the Biden-Harris administration.

“Where were you when thousands of American parents buried their children? They got separated from children forever because they were killed by illegal aliens that entered this country illegally. That’s preventable crimes,” Homan said. “Where were you in the 600% increase in sex trafficking with the Biden administration? Where were you when 10.5 million people came to our borders illegally?”

“Where were you when millions were released in the United States in defiance of federal law? The law says you come to this country, you come to our borders without proper documentation, you shall be detained. Not released, shall be detained,” Homan added. “Where were you when they released the millions of people in the United States? Where were you when a record number of people on terrorist watch lists crossed this border and released the United States with no vetting?”

Under the Biden-Harris administration, more than 8 million migrants were encountered at the southern border over the past four fiscal years. The deaths of 12-year-old Jocelyn Nungaray, 37-year-old RachelMorin and 22-year-old Laken Riley during the previous administration’s border crisis shocked Americans as their murder suspects were illegal migrants.

Homan went on to question where Democrats “were” when the border crisis fueled the drug influx into the U.S., calling out their silence during the last administration.

“Where were you when a quarter million Americans died from fentanyl coming across the border, open border, Biden administration?” Homan asked. “Where were you then? You were silent, which means you’re complicit. You didn’t say a word about the violation of laws that put America at great risk. Not just public safety, national security. So where were you then?”

“It’s pathetic and disgusting. They are elected by the people to represent the taxpayers of this country,” Homan added. “When you don’t care about your constituency, when you don’t care about public safety and national security, you’re an embarrassment to the position you hold. Where were you the last four years?”

During a Fox News interview Sunday, Van Hollen said his April 16 trip to El Salvador was paid for by taxpayer dollars. He defended pushing for Abrego Garcia’s release. Despite the Department of Justice releasing documents showing local law enforcement had evidence of Abrego Garcia’s alleged MS-13 ties dating back to 2019, four more Democrat lawmakers traveled to Central America to try to see Van Hollen.

The Supreme Court ruled on April 10 that the Trump administration should “facilitate” Abrego Garcia’s “release from custody in El Salvador” and “ensure that his case is handled as it would have been” prior to his deportation.
