Elections Correspondent for The Federalist Brianna Lyman joins Fox Across America With guest host Paul Gleiser to give her take on why certain mainstream media pundits have decided to run with the “Maryland man” narrative when talking about Kilmar Abrego Garcia, the deported illegal alien accused of being an MS-13 gang member.

“It’s because they’re not trying to learn anything right now. Right now what they’re trying to do is they’re trying to continue pushing this globalist agenda and the globalist agenda that they are trying to push is that every illegal alien gets a say here, that there’s no such thing as sovereignty as citizenship and as borders. And so the reason that they’re calling Kilmar Abrego-Garcia a Maryland man is because they want a blur the lines between illegal alien and citizens so they can delegitimize any efforts for mass deportations by saying, oh, but look, you know, someone can get swept up. Not just someone, an alleged MS-13 gang member, right? But they want you to believe that it’s going to be your legitimate average Maryland father, soccer coach gets swept up. That’s why they’re calling him a Maryland man. They’re trying to guilt you into relinquishing your obligation to protect your country.”
