The White House will host El Salvador's President Nayib Bukele amid controversy over the Trump administration's aggressive deportation tactics targeting alleged gang members. The administration justifies these deportations using the 1798 Alien Enemies Act, asserting that many deported individuals pose security threats. However, this program has become contentious, with civil rights advocates and family members of detainees arguing against the lack of due process and legal challenges. Despite claims of effective hemispheric cooperation, the process raises significant ethical and legal questions.
President Bukele has graciously accepted into his Nation's custody some of the most violent alien enemies of the World. They will never threaten or menace our Citizens again!
US Secretary of State Marco Rubio praised the Trump-Bukele alliance as an example of effective hemispheric cooperation. Last night, another 10 criminals from the MS-13 and Tren de Aragua Foreign Terrorist Organizations arrived in El Salvador.
The administration claims all those deported were vetted and linked to gangs that the US considers terrorist organisations, but many detainees dispute these claims.
Civil rights advocates argue that branding immigrants as gang members without judicial oversight violates due process, despite the administration justifying deportations under the Alien Enemies Act.
