Men were branded as gangsters sent to CECOT, the torture prison in El Salvador.
On 7/19, 252 were released to Venezuela- the Salvadorans still there.
We won't forget the injustice to them and continue to speak out for all that ICE has disappeared in US

Today's 9 mos. since the Salvadoran men were illegally sent to El S. Unlike the VZ men who shared the same, horrible detention, they are still there. We know of the brutal conditions.

Today, I spoke with Kilmar Abrego Garcia and his wife, Jennifer. In April, when I met with him in El Salvador, Trump said he would never set foot in the U.S. again.
This case has never been about one man alone; if the govt can violate the constitutional rights of one, all our rights are threatened.

The AP tracked down details of some of the people killed in President Trump's military strikes on drug smugglers he describes as narco-terrorists.
They were, with one exception, not high-level criminals. One was a fisherman. One was a bus driver; another a taxi driver.

It was always coming to this. We are the “home growns” Trump mentioned sending to CECOT.
In a leaked memo, AG Pam Bondi told the DOJ to compile a “list of groups or entities engaged in acts that may constitute domestic terrorism,” suggesting the department could target Americans based on their political beliefs rather than their actions.
