Trump Says Will Jail US Convicts Abroad In A ‘Heartbeat’ As El Salvador Offers Its Notorious Prison
US President Donald Trump expressed openness to El Salvador’s offer to house convicted criminals, including US citizens, in the country’s mega-prison, the Terrorism Confinement Center (CECOT). Trump called it a cost-effective deterrent. Following a meeting with US Secretary of State Marco Rubio, the proposal gained attention, though concerns about legality remain. Bukele’s offer includes accepting criminals from various nations for a fee. Critics warn of inhumane conditions at CECOT, which holds 40,000 inmates, with allegations of torture and killings among prisoners. trump n18oc_crux
