United States of Hypocrisy

Customs and Border Patrol agents are allowed to have gang tattoos on their own bodies, even though anyone else with a tattoo, even those without any criminal convictions, can be rounded up and shipped off to foreign gulags.

OUT OF CECOT!⚡"WH confirms 250+ Venezuelans detained in SLV have been swapped for 10 US nationals that were being held in VE by the Maduro regime."
-B Debussmann Jr

"Further confirms that: US has repeatedly lied to fed judges about who controlled the custody of the men in #CECOT.

Bukele lies about the criminality of the Venezuelans he's been imprisoning w/o trial, claiming "Many of them": serious records.

75% of those sent there had💔NO CRIMINAL RECORD at all."

Thank you to the journalists who are continuing to investigate the monstrous treatment of the hundreds of human beings who were sent by the US government to El Salvador's #CECOT concentration camp.

404 Media · Flight Manifests Reveal Dozens of Previously Unknown People on Three Deportation Flights to El SalvadorHacked data obtained by 404 Media reveals dozens more people on deportation flights to El Salvador who are unaccounted for. “We have not heard from these people’s families, so I think perhaps even they don’t know," one lawyer said.

"Hernandez Romero, Alvarado, & many other INNOCENT MEN that our govt paid to have imprisoned in SLV may be FREE.

We don't know what Maduro will do with them & the scars of the suffering WE put them through may be lifelong.

Bloomberg/Reuters🚨reporting: the Trump admin is doing a prisoner swap, deporting all or potentially nearly all of the Venezuelans imprisoned in #CECOT to VE in exchange for American pol prisoners.

The admin lied about custody from day one."

"It is one thing to stop tRump’s lawlessness (e.g., ending deportation to #CECOT but it is far more difficult to hold accountable the officials responsible for harm inflicted on their victims."

Though the Trump administration often refers to the AEA removals as deportations, they do not resemble the codified judicial process of deportation.

Rather than deporting the men removed under the AEA back to their country of origin, the Trump administration sent them to a country foreign to them to serve out an indefinite sentence without ever convicting them of a crime or giving them an opportunity to challenge their removal or continued confinement.


...

Multiple investigations have found that a majority of those removed by the Trump administration do not have criminal records in the U.S., Venezuela or El Salvador and never violated U.S. immigration laws.


...

... the U.S. has paid El Salvador around $6 million to imprison the men for at least a year.


...

El Salvador said that the U.S. had exclusive responsibility over the men.

“In this context, the jurisdiction and legal responsibility for these persons lie exclusively with the competent foreign authorities, by virtue of international agreements signed and in accordance with the principles of sovereignty and international cooperation in criminal matters,” it said.
