I just landed in San Salvador a little while ago, and I look forward to meeting with the team at the U.S. embassy to discuss the release of Mr. Abrego Garcia.
I also hope to meet with Salvadoran officials and with Kilmar himself. He was illegally abducted and needs to come home.

The life of an introvert really just boils down to working up the energy to act like an extrovert, until you can go home and be comfortably introverted.

An extinction burst causes fading behavior to spike before vanishing. In U.S. politics, outrage surges as losing groups resist change. This reaction reflects a desperate grasp for past influence. The old white male ideal is fading, triggering backlash from those clinging to it.
