President of El Salvador refuses to release man accidentally deported.
Kilmar Abrego Garcia was abducted on March 12th by masked and unidentified government agents and sent to the high-security prison in El Salvador.
Which is problematic on it's own, but what's more is that the government admitted this was due to an "Administrative Error".
In a near-unprecedented 9-0 Supreme Court ruling, the White House was ordered to bring Garcia back.The White House first said they didn't have jurisdiction now that Kilmar was in El Salvador, then said that the SCOTUS ruling doesnt mean anything because the court said the administation must "facilitate" the return and not "effectuate" the return.
Well now when questioned directly by the press, the President of El Salvador has said he will not be returning anyone sent to Centro de Confinamiento del Terrorismo, also known as CECOT.
Now people are questioning how is this facility able to contain so many prisoners that are never released. Lawyers in El Salvador have been denied all requests to meet Kilmar.
What is even more disturbing is the view of CECOT when seen through satillite imagery. Google Maps and Apple Maps have both since blurred the image of the concentration camp, although images still exist across the internet of what is very plausibly a pile of corpses in the yard of the camp. I will not post the link due to the page being marked as NSFW on reddit, but currently you can look up "google maps cecot" to find people talking about the disturbing image. The thread is titled "So the google maps satellite view of CECOT is horrifying".
This has led many to the understanding that the US has shipped this innocent man off to be executed in a kill camp.
According to the State Department,
Abrego is "Alive and Secure", however his family and lawyers have been denied every opportunity to speak with him.
TL;DR The US is very likely partnering with El Salvador to run extermination camps against minorities and political dissidents.

same day edit:
Annoying Orange caught on mic telling Salvadorian President that they need to construct 5 more prisons because "homegrown" prisoners are next basically affirming he isn't stopping with immigrants but any american can now be targeted by his gestapo
Maryland Senator Chris Van Hollen flies to El Salvador to demand release in person of Kilmar.He met with the VP of El Salvador who responded that they cannot let the Senator see the man that ICE kidnapped without a week's notice. Van Hollen then said, alright bet, I'll wait here for a week and see him when you're ready, and the VP says no i wont be able to release him. Van Hollen then demands the ability to talk to Kilmar on the phone, and was denied. When asked why they can't release Kilmar, the VP said its because the US is paying them to keep the maryland resident.
And now the White House is trying to flip the script by randomly claming now that Kilmar was a terrorist, when they previously acknowledged that his previous run-in with the court because he was racially profiled by a corrupt cop, actually proved he wasn't a threat and was granted by that judge the right to stay in america. Now they are saying that this never happened and actually he was supposed to be picked up and everything they said about it being a mistake they didnt actually say, and the mistake was that he was supposed to be sent to a different prison?
After mounting pressure, Van Hollen was allowed to meet with Kilmar to confirm that he is still alive.
This was the first anyone has seen of Kilmar Abrego Garcia since he was kidnapped by ICE agents over a month ago.
Salvadorian president Bukele made it clear, however, that they have no plans to allow the wrongfully abducted man to return to his wife and son in Maryland, despite multiple court orders and a 9-0 ruling by the US Supreme Court, and the Whitehouse Deputy Press Secretary said it was "truly disgusting" that Van Hollen risked his own safety to travel to the supermax prison and ensure that his constituent was still alive.
