White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt said Tuesday that President Donald Trump is exploring legal pathways to “deport” U.S. citizens to El Salvador, where the administration has already arranged to house deported immigrants in a prison known for its human rights abuses.
Because once outside the US, the Republican position is that they no longer have recourse to the courts. So you can hustle somebody to El Salvador really fast, and then there is nothing they can do about it.
Whereas if you put people through the usual trial process and keep them in a US prison, they can later be freed as innocent.
So basically, point at person you don’t like (like minorities) and say “You did a crime! To El Salvador with you!” and they’re gone forever regardless of innocence. Great times.
Ah, that makes sense.
But, it sounds like he’s only talking about the worst of the worst. So then I assume it wouldn’t be hard to keep them in prison. Whatever, if those types are going free (which I have heard of happening), then there are other issues that should be dealt with.

Actually no. The worst of the worst stay in the US. The people they are deporting to El Salvador are mostly non-criminals or petty criminals. The actual violent criminals (the ones that are harder to control) do not make for good slaves and are kept in whatever prison they are already in.
