    Here we go. The showdown we all knew was coming.

    P…S. they can’t allow him to return and report on what goes on there. I’m willing to bet he is dead or will soon be killed.

      Showdown maybe. They don’t have a deadline or consequences for failing to act or requirement that they actually take steps which result in his being returned to the US.

        The constitutional crisis has been underway since inaguration day, but the wheels of justice grind slowly so there is some delay between getting knocked off track and the inevitable trainwreck.

          There are no wheels of justice on this sinking ship. If justice were to come it’d be from somewhere else.

        The showdown is the answer of the question “Will trump disobey the orders of the supreme court of the land?” If that answer is yes then we are in an interesting timeline

      Looking at the Google Earth pictures, it looks like this isn’t a prison but a death camp.

      Maybe that’s why they are fighting so hard to bring him back, because everyone would learn what they did.

      Edit: if your didn’t see the posts, search CECOT on Google maps. It also looks like there might be mass graves up north.

      They sent them to jail, yet we don’t know what they exactly did (all they told us they were in a vegetable gang), we don’t know how long they supposed to be jailed and how would they finish serving their sentence. Most of those people aren’t even from El Salvador, so where would they go after.

      It looks like they are never meant to leave the place and the payment was one time, so it looks like he just outsourced the killing.

        CECOT Prisoners are not intended to leave, ever, according to Bukele’s justice minister. 156 violent people shoved into 100 square meter cells with no regard for gang affiliation. Steel bunks 3 levels high - no mats, no windows, just a toilet and wash basin shared among everyone in a cell. They’re fed rice without utensils, and provided zero outdoor time or visitation.

        Basically a steel and concrete pit built to make people wish they got the death penalty.

          It looks like a cattle farm from the sky, except that cattle barns have plenty of windows and usually allow the cows some level of movement.

          I assume you mean 100 square feet cells? 100 square meter cells sounds quite luxurious - unless that’s the total area.

            100 m2 cell with 156 people per cell = .6 m2 per person. In reality even less, as it doesn’t account space for bunks.

            They put a lot of people in the cells, not just 2 or 3. So they are quite large and still quite crowded.

              Who? Normally this prison is for Salvadorans.

              I don’t think they expected that guy getting recognized. They called them foreign alien terrorists to make sure the reaction is negative.

              More and more looks like what is really going on is that trump thinks to use this prison/death camp to get rid of his opposition and using foreign country is to skip the US Constitution.

              Those people were sent to test the ground, he just looked for immigrants with tattoos so he could call them gang members.

              One this worked the plan (and he admitted himself) was to send the “worst of the worst” US citizens there.

              The problem is that now he is deciding who is “worst of the worst”.

              The reason he is doing this in stages is to get people to get used that sending people without trial to foreign prison is normal.

              Bloodiest wars in world’s history were religious wars.

              I am Catholic myself and I know a lot of people that call themselves Christians and are for death penalty.

              Also we don’t even know the religion of current dictator/president, so I think that argument is moot.

              There’s a BIG fence around it and I’m certain that none of the “locals” are employed there.

      “Here he is!”

      head shaven, 30lbs lighter, scars on his head, won’t say complete sentences or look anyone in the face.

      “He’s fine!”

      They showed the prison on the news but didn’t show the prisoners from America. That’s suspicious

        Puppy Killer Noem, and a network news journalist have managed to get permission to get into that prison with camera crews, but somehow the entire HitlerPig administration cant seem to reach anyone who can authorize this guy’s release?
