When this story broke earlier today Republicans claimed it was probably fake news since it was reported by the NYT. Now multiple media outlets have confirmed it, including Fox. Hegseth and Vance are complete morons for pulling this dumb stunt.

CECOT is a torture/concentration/death camp.
No one in there is ever expected to return to society.
The US has so far sent 238+10 men to this hellscape. Why? Seemingly for existing while brown + having random tattoos. 75 percent have no criminal record.
