“How can I return him to the United States? I smuggle him into the United States? Of course I’m not going to do it. The question is preposterous,” Bukele said. “I don’t have the power to return him to the United States. We’re not very fond of releasing terrorists into our country.”
"To liberate 350 million people, you have to imprison some. That’s the way it works,” Bukele told Trump. Abrego Garcia has not been charged with terrorism.

Is the rest of the Salvadorian society ok with this? I know the guy is incredibly popular there, but how is the rest of the government (congress, courts) ok with this?

If they make too much trouble for Bukele he will just throw them in there too
Many arrests appear to be based on the appearance or social background of detainees or on anonymous calls, and Salvadoran and international human rights groups have documented detentions of hundreds of people with no connections to gangs. Detainees include union and community leaders as well as environmental human rights defenders.

Imprisoning or killing people who disagree with you will make it appear that way
Shutting down the government now and defunding ICE would be great ideas. Also they’re using planes for these deportations. Certain unions have power over this.
WHY ISN’T THAT MOTHERFUCKER WEARING A SUIT IN THE OVAL OFFICE!? How DARE he disgrace that office!?

If we can first deal with this shit right now in the US with Trump, Bukele is next.
…because they’ve already executed him…
So a man is falsely imprisoned and nobody has the authority to release him?
How are the FMLN working with this? It cannot be a popular move to import several hundred “criminal gangsters” when your country already suffers from major prison overcrowding.
CECOT was always designed to be a Gulag.
No access to legal counsel No rehabilitation No release dates Forced labour No talking
American taxpayers are literally paying for a Gulag in another country that will eventually be housing American citizens (the “home-grown” comment).
“Oopsie… Too late,” Bukele wrote with a crying laughing emoji on X the next day alongside a screenshot of a news report on the judge’s decision."
The innocent is very well dead and I’m confident the reason why El Salvador’s president says, “he can’t send him back” is because he’s getting money for the prisoners to be there from the Trump administration. Facts and evidence is out the window, it’s their way or El Salvador.
What part of “wrongly” are they choking on?
Boycott El Salvador!
Lemme guess tho! The same americans who talk shit about people who live in dictatorships and cheered their bombings of nations like Iraq/Afghanistan etc…. they will sit at home on their iphones and on the couch, while a tv show streams on the tv on the wall in front of them… and they’ll post so many comments and stuff.
Lol but no chance in hell Americans tomorrow actually stand up and kick out this guy. Literally nothing will change at all. Other than the position of the sun in the sky.
“What are you fucking kidding?” bukele asked. "I put the muzzle to his head and pulled the trigger exactly when your video showed you making the finger gun at the camera, just like you told me to "
"Oh yeah, that was a good video I made, lots of people are going to see it "
/S
This destroys their earlier argument that they don’t have jurisdiction and interpret the ruling to only require them to remove US barriers to his return, not actually make it happen. Here’s the guy they claim has jurisdiction saying the only reason he won’t send him home is because he can’t make the US accept him.
The court needs to make a concrete order immediately that they shall accept him back, pay for any travel expenses, and cease payment for his incarceration. And until they demonstrate that they have a method to fix mistakes, bar any further transfers.

I can promise you this quote is going to be in Abrego Garcia’s next court filing.
I actually already have a copy of the DOJs response to that filing:
🖕
Update: I was expecting the plaintiff to use this Bukele quote, because it’s pretty good for him.
But instead it’s the Government that filed it!
At this point I utterly fail to understand their litigation strategy.
I expected terrible but Trump trampling on the Constitution at least 5(?) times within his first 100 days is still pretty shocking.
