Reports say Trump turned down a $50B offer from Ukraine to buy U.S. military gear. That’s a huge deal to just walk away from by someone who is evidently so consumed by making money for the U.S.

When he says “home-growns”, he’s talking about US citizens. He wants Bukeke to build more torture prisons in El Salvador for Americans. Not me saying it, Trump saying it. bsky.app/profile/atru...
Trump to Bukele: "Home-growns are next. The home-growns. You gotta build about five more places. It's not big enough."

Trump wants to build gulags to house his political opponents. It's always where this was going.
Holy shit. Video posted by President Bukele’s team on X shows the moments before his press conference with Trump in which Trump tells him: “We want to do homegrown criminals next. You gotta build about five more places.”
