Since we’re using El Salvador like it’s a new Gitmo. Like yes, it would still suck for the people from El Salvador.
But at least people from other countries would go back to their home country. Presumably to be treated far better than El Salvador.

Laws don’t matter. The government is breaking laws left, right and centre.
Because congress is complicit
I don’t know what the US congress is any more, but in other countries it’s because they really really want to expel someone and the deportee’s home country might say “no thanks, they’re your problem”.
Because then most of the people being deported right now would just be deported to the US, causing a paradox and unfolding reality.
Back in the day, they told Lord Byron that there was a rule against people having dogs at his college.
There wasn’t a rule against having a bear, so he got one of those.
it’s not a law that one country can make. it’s a law that requires agreement between countries via international treaty
We could easily, and should, implement a law saying that people must be deported back to their own country. It just means fewer people would be deported.
Because people facing deportation aren’t billionaire campaign donors, so the law doesn’t work for them
Congress hasn’t passed much of anything lately. They just let Trump do his executive orders. But even if they felt like doing anything at all, the GOP has control and can count on a few Dems to follow along.
Because our laws only protect the wealthy, enforce racism, sexism and are getting worse and more genocidal in real time
Because they havent been paid to do so yet. They dont work for us.
Because the cruelty of it is the entire point. People still like to imagine those in power have some sort of misguided moral compass or reasoning. They do not. They are pure, unadulterated evil.
I bet the general answer from congress would be “Why? It’s not our country’s problem where they end up once out of here”
Because they are sociopaths that have zero empathy for those they deport.
