Donald Trump stated on April 29, 2025 in an interview with ABC News:
Kilmar Armando Abrego Garcia “had ‘MS-13’ on his knuckles tattooed. … He had ‘MS’ as clear as you can be. Not 'interpreted.’”

During the ABC News interview that aired April 29, Trump referred to an image he shared on Truth Social on April 18 showing what he said was Abrego Garcia’s tattoos.

Trump told Moran that Abrego Garcia’s hand says MS13, which Moran said was disputed and that some had said the tattoos were "interpreted that way." Trump said, "Don't do that — M, S, one, three — it says M, S, one, three." Moran countered, "That was Photoshopped."

Moran tried to move on, but Trump continued. "Terry, do you want me to show you the picture?" Trump said. "He had ‘M,’ ‘S’ as clear as you can be. Not ‘interpreted.’"

Trump’s ABC News interview goes far beyond the impression he left when he shared an image on Truth Social of what he said were Abrego Garcia’s finger tattoos. Trump insisted in the ABC News interview that "MS-13" appears on Abrego Garcia’s hand as a clear sign of gang affiliation, which was part of the evidence used to deport him.

1. News writing keeps referring to this as deporting, they sent him to prison, not just deported

Not deported imprisoned. Please get it right journalist for once. We condemned him to prison for life with no due process. That’s the United States that did that.
