    I hope I’m wrong, but I don’t think these people are alive. They were never going to let a Senator from the opposition in for a photo-op but giving zero proof of life feels less like a middle finger and more like they can’t. kiryu-pain

      Yeah, I think he’s dead. The US effectively killed him, whether they put a bullet in his head themselves or shuffled him off to El Salvador for prison guards or fellow prisoners to do it. Climbing another rung in the extrajudicial killing power of the US gov

      one day later I would like to publicly admit I was owned

      Very likely. MS-13 accusations are taken very seriously in the Northern Triangle. Many people have horrific stories about them and I’ve had friends I went to school with end up joining them as teenagers. I doubt he was ordered to be killed, but I do believe that the guards fucked him up bad. They’re the only ones who can actually do shit at CECOT because the prisoners are heavily monitored and given nothing that could be seen as a weapon like utensils.

      I don’t think they’ll let him return even if he was alive. They don’t want him to tell him to speak to the press.

        I don’t even think it’s this. They get off on brutality. They’ll just stick with the story that he deserved it because he was a gang member. The Israelis have already demonstrated how far you can go by calling any journalist, paramedic, or child you murder a militant, against overwhelming evidence. This would be deeply shocking to the “it can’t happen here” libs, but it will not fracture the fascist political base. They enjoy it when the libs are pulling their hair out.

        If they fold on Abrego Garcia, their power is checked. If they stand their ground, they solidify their power to use the vast federal “law enforcement” apparatus to arbitrarily issue death sentences without a trial. This is ultimately what they are after.

    Will the bigger international outcry be if he goes home and tells his story about what happened in there or if he dies? I worry they may kill him if it’s the former

      tells his story

      I think the chance of that happening is zero. He’s either already dead or they’ll kill him. They’ll keep lying and say stuff like he’s “in custody”. But Trump is Trump. I bet in a couple years he can’t help bragging that they killed him just because they could.
