  1. They are human beings, not packages, shame on every country siding with Trump’s immigration policies 

  2. I mean, that makes more sense than El Salvador. So I’d have to agree with him

  4. Well that’s where they should’ve been sent to but Maduro is messing around and denying his people

  5. Ah, a novel idea.

    ETA: line from the Monday Morning Podcast somewhere.

  6. That would actually be a deportion, not an indefinite imprisonment

  7. You mean like how deportation is supposed to work? Sending people back to their nations of origin? Why are we sending them to an El Salvadoran prison to begin with? With no trial or conviction of any actual crime? Trump and his lackeys need to be dragged to the Hague.

  8. Deport people to their country and not a concentration camp in a random country?  What a novel idea.

  9. So we basically just paid Bukele to acquire his own political prisoners to achieve his own ends. Why?

  10. Sure. Can we get due process so nobody else gets kidnapped?

  11. Hes the dictator of El Salvador, he could just refuse to run a foreign slave prison… like a sane country. Stop accepting America’s random deported foreign nationals.

  12. I think Van Hollen politely informed Bukele that unless he does an about face, he’ll end up in an American jail cell if the Democrats ever return to power. In the middle of the trip he suddenly reversed his stance on letting van Hollen visit Garcia, and now this.

  13. The Venezuelans that ended their journey in Mexico are probably thinking…. “Good call”

  14. Bukele will face Hell on earth when the next administration is elected after Trump is removed from office for crimes against the state and world. Bukele does not have long for this world

  16. They’re getting scared of what happens when the Trump regime falls. They should be, Raskin has already put it out there clearly he and the rest of the Democrats will remember.

  19. Bukele stepped onto a land mine. Trump has basically asked him to open more prisons and eventually take in American citizens.

    What does he do now? Say no? And if he does any such things he is risking sanctions and isolation should Trump be eventually removed, god willing.

  22. Bukele has some common sense

    $6 million isn’t worth all the negative PR

    Obv it’s evil to put them in a gulag for being deported from ghe US…

  23. So, what you’re saying is…you actually do have the authority to release these people?

  25. The pressure is working. Keep it up! These men never should have been imprisoned, they deserved hearings and either entry or deportation. Not a friggin death camp.

  26. They realized that Trump doesn’t actually pay.
