We are hundreds of miles on the interstate past Nixon's crimes that look like harmless school pranks by comparison. Presidency-ending for anyone else since WWII. At a minimum, an immediate SecState resignation. But we've decided nothing matters for this One Special Boy & his authoritarian playmates.
Probably late to this story, but holy hell!
This is an administration ending story.
For the Secy-o-State to promise something like this is damning.
“He [Rubio] assured Bukele that Bondi would complete that process & Washington would hand over the [informants who are under US protection]

Rubio promised to betray U.S. informants to get Trump’s El Salvador prison deal
To secure U.S. access to President Nayib Bukele’s notorious CECOT prison, Rubio agreed to turn over several MS-13 leaders central to a long-running Justice Department investigation.

Curious how many Democrats are going to claim they support No Kings and then walk back to the Congress and continue sabotaging impeachment efforts.
