Tourism to El Salvador is mostly Salvadorians visiting family, but many are postponing trips due Trump's policy and return-access fears. Sadly, Salvadorian-American or living in US cult-like support for Bukele persists. He will lose on remittance and tourism. #BoycottElSalvador

The week was dominated by news about the Maryland man illegally deported to El Salvador. But there was also concern over tariffs and Robert F. Kennedy's work as Health and Human Services secretary.

Homan on Morning Joe: "If you're in the country illegally, you should be concerned. It's not okay to enter this country illegally. It's a crime. So make it right. Turn yourself in ... if you're country illegally, you should not be safe and secure and comfortable being in the country illegally."

Sen. Chris Van Hollen (D-MD) met Thursday with Kilmar Abrego Garcia in El Salvador, a man deported by the Trump administration despite a court order blocking his removal.
So paid goons are getting paid federal dollars instead of feeding kids at school?
You saw the video of the ICE agent breaking a car window near the border, right? He wasn’t an ICE agent. He’s the founder of Veterans on Patrol, a FAR-RIGHT MILITIA patrolling the border for migrants. They’re basically deputizing militias to act as federal agents. This is dangerously out of control

The way they are exploiting this woman’s suffering to try to justify sending a random guy to an El Salvadoran gulag is truly sick

Thank you, Sen. Van Hollen, for standing up not just for Kilmar Abrego Garcia and his family but for every American who believes in due process. We can't stop speaking out until he is home and this administration is forced to stop its horrific practice of kidnapping people without charge or trial.
Generating $3.7 billion in tourism revenue. And they are only making $6M for prisoners per year. Doesn’t seem like a good trade. Americans- you know what to do and where not to spend your travel dollars.
In 2024, Americans made up a significant portion of foreign visitors to El Salvador, accounting for approximately 39% of the total number of foreign tourists, which was around 3.2 million. This indicates that El Salvador is a popular destination for U.S. travelers.
Is that what happens to people in an emotionally abusive relationship for the first time? Especially if they have lived a mostly traumatize-free life or entitled life. They experience real fear for the first time and they feel paralyzed. Sure sounds like the republic public officials.
.@timmiller.bsky.social on Sen. Murkowski: "The political environment is so fraught that you as a U.S. senator are scared to speak out...Why are you supporting the people that are creating that environment?"
