Trump to Meet Bukele Amid Controversial Deportation Program

🤔 **Is the US Deportation Program Crossing the Line?**

US President Donald Trump is set to meet El Salvador’s President Nayib Bukele at the White House, amidst growing controversy over a deportation program targeting alleged gang members. This program has seen individuals, including Venezuelans accused of gang affiliations, sent to El Salvador’s maximum-security prisons.

The Trump administration has invoked the rarely used 1798 Alien Enemies Act to justify these deportations, claiming the individuals are linked to gangs like MS-13 and Tren de Aragua. However, critics argue that many deportees were denied due process, raising serious legal and human rights concerns.

One high-profile case involves Kilmar Abrego Garcia, a Maryland man mistakenly deported and now confined in an El Salvador prison. The US Supreme Court has ordered his return, but the administration’s response remains unclear.

As Trump and Bukele discuss this controversial alliance, questions about the program’s legality and morality loom large.
