Kilmar Abrego García, released from extrajudicial detention [15] in El Salvador, now fights deportation to Uganda [16]. Hundreds of the Venezuelans sent by the US [17] to the Salvadoran prison gulag [18] have now been returned to Venezuela in a prisoner swap [19]. But El Salvador remains on the growing list [20] of human rights offendors cultivated [21] by the Trump regime as surrogate detention states [22]. The Trump State Department's farcical "Human Rights Report" seeks to sanitize [23] dictator Nayib Bukele's anti-crime police state [24]. And adding to the Orwellian nature of the Trump-Bukele axis, the US Justice Department has dropped charges [25] against MS-13 [15] leaders who collaborated [26] in the consolidation [27] of the new Salvadoran dictatorship [28]. In Episode 293 [29] of the CounterVortex podcast [30], Bill Weinberg exposes the perverse charade.
