They’re not deportations because the people being sent there are not from there.
Bukele, the Salvadorian ruler, is a fellow authoritarian, and told Marco Rubio he would disappear whoever they wanted for cash.
Guantanamo Bay is US territory, and our government would be responsible for what happens to these people, but by sending them to a cooperative 3rd party country, Trump and company have declared their hands clean of what happens to anyone sent there after that, and as they are out of US territory, we have no means to ever get any of them back.
They are now talking about sending people born in the US there if they are “bad enough.”
If you’ve ever spoken out against the government in writing/online, are part of a labor union, or any kind of minority or LGBT or care about anyone that is, you should get up to speed on this quickly.

Aw. I did not realize Bukele was also authoritarian. That was the missing part.
Thanks!
Also the people being sent there are innocent, likely by any reasonable definition, but certainly by the definition of our Constitution.
Glad to help!
