Donald Trump's Deportation Obsession
Briefly

In El Salvador, President Nayib Bukele declared a 'state of exception' to combat gang violence, leading to the arrest of approximately 85,000 individuals, many without charges. This has resulted in significant human rights violations, including deaths in custody. The U.S. has now begun outsourcing deported immigrants to Bukele's supermax prison, paying six million dollars under the Trump Administration's controversial immigration strategies. Bukele's approach has garnered support from right-wing figures in the U.S., reflecting a troubling trend of authoritarian governance and the erosion of legal protections for immigrants.
The Trump Administration is now paying El Salvador six million dollars to hold deported immigrants ... in a supermax prison that Bukele built for his crackdown.
Bukele proudly advertised his services as 'outsourcing' ... he has also offered to house American citizens convicted of crimes.
