Van Hollen and Booker showing how representatives in government should be working for their constituents. I hope their aim is to be as annoying as possible until something good comes of it, but I worry Bukele will just arrest them and further erode the numbers we have in Congress.
All of them were wrongly deported.
Correct, although I imagine they don’t want to risk the optics of coming to the rescue of everyone only to find out after a court case that at least one of those people were actually guilty, even though you’d have saved hundreds from wrongful imprisonment and stood up for the constitution.
Voters are just too dumb, I guess.
I mean that would be a win. You can show why due process is important and that justice is served with it.
How is it a loss to use the justice system as it was written to convict someone of a crime?
If Democrats are so worried about messaging that they’ll let innocent people rot in prison and only attempt to save one guy for a “win” that just means they actually don’t care about any of them.
I have a feeling this will be the first politician to be arrested.
*By El Salvador and put into an El Salvador prison, for trying to visit a political prisoner.
Many have been arrested in the US and abroad over the years for various reasons.
Why would you think that? Just because he’s not a white m-ohhhhh right.
Yeah, no, you’re probably right. But they’re going to fuck up enough at some point. Hopefully we’ll be here to make them pay for it, and I like Booker. (yeah yeah miss me with the ‘he voted for Israel’ links, I got it, thanks.)
I have a feeling you’re wrong.
Cool.
Absolutely.
Believe it or not, straight to jail.
Chuck Schumer and the DNC must be FURIOUS! This TOTALLY RUINS their ENTIRE Plan of ABSOLUTELY NOTHING! These Representatives NEED to stick to the DNC tactic of LETTING Americans get Deported so they can WIN the Midterms!
A Nazi at a bar I used to frequent would definitely love to see Cortez and Crockett thrown into a male prison/camp.
Look for him in this mound
We can get satellite imagery that has a resolution of 30cm (1 foot? Fucked if I know) I put in a request to get some of the site but they want $500 because I need to buy 25sq km of imagery. So I’m still looking for another vendor
What is that?
Many stated it’s dead bodies-if you use Google Maps satellite. If you use Apple Maps-it’s very clean. But it seems like Google Maps is more updated than Apple…
That’s the question! These are satellite images from the notorious El Salvadorian prison from 2024. The image is viral online with people claiming this is a pile of bodies and blood, but that’s unsubstantiated (and the image is from before Trump took office). Another idea is that it’s a pile of construction materials and clay.
Doesn’t look like anything to me.
He obviously needs to bring armed forces with him and extract the guy and watch El Salvador blink in 1 second
And threaten bukele within an inch of his life. Then end it regardless.
Execute Bukele for crimes against humanity, come back and execute Trump for treason
He’ll get told no and then leave.
He wouldn’t be going if he thought anything would be accomplished, he’s in it for the media attention so there’s no room for the progressives actually trying

Honestly, what is he gonna be able to do?
Try to do the right thing. That’s something.
I hope he is successful
He’s a US senator, the right thing for him to do would be to draft and pass laws to prevent this, form voting coalitions, you know the job we pay him for. Flying to el Salvador to take a picture with a prisoner after a Maryland congressman just did the same thing?
They are milking this for political points and allowing it to happen.
This is so far from the right thing to do, this is just trying to grasp at some headlines to make you think we’re not already to far gone.
Nothing lol he has no power over anything in El Salvador, he can talk to the president but I’m pretty sure the President has prior comittments in this matter. This is a photo op. Like the filibuster, they’re continuing to virtue signal to voters instead of leading and legislating. This does nothign to convince a handful of republicans to join them in reigning in trumps power. Pure optics. No strategy. I’ve seen headless chickens act more decisively.
Assuming this guy is still alive at this point.
Human rights group, prison report.
The bottom line is that man will never be safe in this country again. This fascist regime has made sure of that. He will have a massive target on his back if he ever returns.
American fascism is here.
He’s definitely gonna run for president again and is trying to position himself as relevant. He’ll never win.
“You won’t have to vote ever again”
If I were that man I would not want to return to the US. Send him somewhere safe.
His wife and child are American citizens. His life, job and friends are in the US.
It’s not easy for people to give up the people and places they love.
Where would he go? If he doesn’t have family anywhere else, how do you uproot your life and start 100% fresh elsewhere?
Bukele will crack by the 18th hour of filibustering.
Meanwhile, in Germany 1934
Do a helicopter escape, it will work
