CNN conservative Scott Jennings sparked an on-air clash with Rep. Robert Garcia (D-CA) as the two found themselves on opposite sides of the brewing debate over the deportation of Kilmar Abrego Garcia – and the Democratic efforts to retrieve him.
The heated exchange unfolded Wednesday on CNN’s “The Arena” as Jennings, a longtime GOP strategist, continued to insist that the Maryland father deported to an El Salvadoran mega-prison by President Donald Trump last month did not have a legal right to remain in the United States.
Jennings also jabbed Democrats, whom he claimed are on the losing side of a political battle. He offered the congressman a piece of unsolicited political advice after Sen. Chris Van Hollen (D-MD) led an unsuccessful trip to El Salvador to make contact with Abrego Garcia.
“I think for Republicans, this just confirms what we have believed about the Democratic Party and why it currently has a 21% approval rating in Congress,” Jennings said. “Look at where the energy in the Democratic Party is – it’s around retrieving illegal aliens from El Salvador, it’s around fighting for these college campuses that have been rife with antisemitism, it’s around biological males who want to play in girls’ sports.”
He added: “This is why they are losing to Donald Trump every day, because the energy that Democrats feel comes on all these issues that are fundamentally not where the American people are.”

Garcia immediately pounced on Jennings as the California Democrat argued it was Trump who is “losing the support of the American people” by “deporting people that have legal status to be here…”
“He doesn’t have legal status to be here, Congressman,” Jennings blurted out as he interrupted Garcia mid-sentence. “He has a deportation order.”
The two continued to talk over each other as their exchange grew into a fiery back-and-forth, with Jennings continuing to jab Democrats for their position in the international firestorm.
“You’re going to go to El Salvador? Maybe go to the grocery store,” Jennings said. “Like there’s an issue here where you could possibly win on, but you’re going to El Salvador instead?”
