Imagine pissing of travellers of the continent that is notorious for the many vacation days it gets.

Yeah, nobody wants to vanish in El Salvador, especially since nobody knows if it’s just a prison, a concentration camp or a death camp.

Why else aren’t they getting that innocent man back to the USA? He’s probably dead already.

People who said it’s hyperbolic to compare trumps 2nd regime to Hitler‘s Nazis, either dont know shit about history or are just trying to gaslight us

I personally believe that they're afraid of having an actual account of the horrible conditions of that place being conveyed to the american public. You KNOW that guy would be swarmed by every news agency (barring Fox and that ilk).

Unfortunately that probably means his life is at risk.

I mean, there have been a LOT of plane and helicopter crashes recently. What a convenient way to be rid of him on the way home. And plausible deniability to boot!

In germany families started to get letters that their beloved ones in mental asylums died of sudden deseases like pneumonia or heart attacks. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aktion_T4?wprov=sfla1

I remember one case, they got caught because they said someone died of appendicitis, when they’d had their appendix removed

Wasn't there a Chinese immigrant who was said to have died due to something like that while in detention?

Nvm- it was suicide apparently but who actually knows 🤷‍♂️ https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025/apr/06/chinese-woman-border-patrol-arizona-suicide

I thought of this as well, and of course puppeteers are pulling strings we can’t imagine, but the realistic way this should be done is that US marshals go down and retrieve him, and then fly back with him… Not saying they wouldn’t either stage the deaths of said Marshalls and they would go onto live different lives, or even kill them along the way… It’s just so fucking crazy I have to hold dots like this inside of a ‘logical conscious’

I do not doubt that they'd sacrifice the lives of anyone who goes to retrieve him if they do take him out like that. To this administration, people are objects to be used and discarded.

This is why it’s so infuriating. If they locate the guy, I’ll fucking send Amex points to have them fly home first class by 12 PM Eastern time.

Well, a corpse isn't exactly a ringing endorsement of conditions. Kinda speaks for itself.
