Here's another way to look at it: All living organisms have common ancestry. That's the theory of evolution in a nutshell. Members of the same species have a common ancestor that is also in the species.

The first description of autism as a condition, in 1943, is credited to Leo Kanner. But it's clear that John Langdon Down had recognized the same syndrome as early as 1887.

That's called extradition. If you believe in norms and principles, there are legitimate ways of doing these things.

Previously El Salvador was mostly under the radar. Now they have to deal with an image issue. That is on top of the fact that doing away with due process will probably not turn out too well in the long run either way.

These accusations of gang membership, which are obviously consequential, need to be tested in court, if only because it will give everyone a better sense of how reliable or pseudoscientific the process is.
