Original Note:
The senator ordered water and coffee. It's disputed whether the senator also ordered or drank the cherry-garnished "margaritas", or the glasses were planted to sabotage the photo op. Margaritas are garnished with lime and salt, which would dissolve if sipped. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-14626715/Democrat-Chris-Van-Hollen-ridiculed-hilarious-reason-didnt-drink-fake-margaritas-El-Salvador-alleged-MS-13-gangster.html https://nypost.com/2025/04/18/us-news/sen-van-hollen-claims-margaritas-were-planted-by-el-salvadorians-during-meeting-with-alleged-ms-13-gangbanger-kilmar-abrego-garcia/
