U.S. Sen. Chris Van Hollen said Monday morning that he would go to El Salvador himself later this week if the Trump administration continues to stall on a judge’s directive to return a mistak…
Honestly, my money says probably not. It’s quite frankly the best explanation for the solid stubornness of the trump admin. They’ve basically admitted he shouldn’t be there. He’s ignoring court orders, and now supreme court orders. The only 2 explanations I can come up with for why they don’t want him back is.
The conditions of the prison are significantly worse than our imaginations have allowed us to think they are, and they don’t want him to confirm that.
Same as 1, but his corpse rather than his words would be the testament to how bad they are.
Any other scenerio to me seems like the political views here would be so overwhelmingly bad that leaving the confirmed innocent man in prison and defying court orders overwhelms any possible reason not to bring him back.
Yeah I mean the first one is basically a given but still the way they’re handling it seems extra fishy. I really hope we’re wrong but let’s not forget he was granted de facto asylum in the US because his life in El Salvador would have been threatened by gangs. And now he’s locked up with said gangs in a lawless torture camp. It’s not exactly looking good.
Well we can’t even be sure the guy is still alive at this point. Maybe the senator can at least find out more about that.

Sadly I don’t think he will learn much. Bukele knows who is buttering his bread and it ain’t this senator.
Whatever Garcia’s fate, I very much doubt they’d let this senator through border control.
