President Donald Trump thanked El Salvador’s president after he posted a stunning video of hundreds of suspected migrant criminals arriving in Central America after being deported from the United States.
Trump thanked President Nayib Bukele on social media after citing the Alien Enemies Act of 1798, which permits the deportation of citizens and natives of an enemy country without a hearing.
“Thank you to El Salvador and, in particular, President Bukele, for your understanding of this horrible situation, which was allowed to happen to the United States because of incompetent Democrat leadership. We will not forget,” Trump wrote.
Trump also referred to the apprehended migrants as “the monsters sent into our Country by Crooked Joe Biden and the Radical Left Democrats.”
A whopping 261 illegal aliens were deported to El Salvador yesterday, according to a senior Trump administration official who spoke to Fox News. Of these, 137 were deported under the Alien Enemies Act of 1798, 101 were Venezuelans deported under Title 8, 21 were Salvadoran MS-13 gang members, and two were MS-13 ringleaders and “special cases” for El Salvador.
