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.
Because our laws only protect the wealthy, enforce racism, sexism and are getting worse and more genocidal in real time
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 congress is complicit

Because Congress doesn’t care about the well-being of those people. Why else would this nuance be inserted into the law?
Congress recently passed a law that allows people to be deported without due process. They’re not trying to stop him…they’re actively helping him.
Laws don’t matter. The government is breaking laws left, right and centre.
Because people facing deportation aren’t billionaire campaign donors, so the law doesn’t work for them
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”.
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.
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.
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.
