FEATURING FAVIANNA RODRIGUEZ - Donald Trump’s government has sent another contingent of people–Venezuelan and Salvadoran nationals–to El Salvador’s notorious gulag-like prison, this time claiming it’s a counter terrorism operation in order to get around legal challenges against using the Alien Enemies Act.
Meanwhile, the Trump Administration admitted it mistakenly sent a Salvadoran man named Kilmar Abrego Garcia, with protected legal status, into the same prison and claimed it is not possible to arrange for his return back to the United States. Garcia is married to a U.S. citizen, has a 5-year old child and no criminal record.
