The screenshot is of a Twitter post by "Nayib Bukele" (President of El Salvador) which shows Kilmar Abrego Garcia with 5 fingers, plus 1 thumb (6 total) in the 1st photo on the left, hand not sharking anyone else's hand, but on his side (would be his left hand).
I can't be the only person who had no idea that #MattGaetz created an official "El Salvador Caucus" in the U.S. Congress last year and it just so happens to be full of most of that body's biggest cranks (#LaurenBoebert, #MikeLee, #NancyMace, #TimBurchett) and most corrupt reps (#AndyOgles, who made some “interesting” campaign finance moves at the crypto industry’s favorite bank that he and George Santos chose to hold their campaign money).
Feels like kind of a lot of congressional time spent nurturing America's relationship with a country whose GDP rivals that of Des Moines, Iowa.
[UPDATE] dear lord the El Salvador Caucus has an (extremely active) Twitter account: https://x.com/SAL_Caucus
Powerful letter to America from Salvadoran journalists who were chased out of their own country by #NayibBukele explaining how we got here and what it is that #ElSalvador is exporting to the US. Contains a good summary of Bukele's rise for those new to the saga of bitcoin fascism.
(El Faro and its journalists were forced to relocate to Costa Rica after facing years of harassment and intimidation for reporting critically on “The World’s Coolest Dictator”)

Fascinating 2021 reporting from El Salvador's exiled opposition newspaper El Faro (they were forced to flee to Costa Rica a few years ago after criticizing the "world's coolest dictator") about a cabal of Venezuelans who are part of the Bukele regime.
Hits different now that the US is using El Salvador's #CECOT prison as a penal colony to house #Venezuelans...

Also while I'm here I'll mention that El Faro is an incredible resource for investigative reporting on Bukele and as a bonus they also publish an English language version (creatively titled "El Faro English"): https://elfaro.net/en?ref=home

El Salvador's President Nayib Bukele said at the White House on Monday he had no plans to return a man mistakenly deported from the United States。 https://www.japantimes.co.jp/news/2025/04/15/world/politics/el-salvador-bukele-us-man-deported/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #worldnews #politics #nayibbukele #elsalvador #us #republicans #donaldtrump #latinamerica #centralamerica
To all the folks who told me "its' not a constitutional crisis yet," "you can't call them nazis," or "it is not yet time to rise up and resist" by grinding the gears of the machine to a halt with our bodies if necessary, my only question is - what now?
Citing the president's absolute power over “foreign relations," the Trump regime has announced that it has no obligation, nor intention to return Kilmar Abrego García, the Maryland man trafficked to a Salvadoran slave labor prison by "mistake," despite multiple court orders and a 9-0 SCOTUS ruling instructing them to do so.
https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025/apr/14/trump-doj-return-man-wrongly-deported-el-salvador
Trump DoJ says not legally bound to return man wrongly deported to El Salvador
"The comments came a day after the Trump administration claimed it is not legally obligated to secure the return of the man, Kilmar Abrego García,, despite the US supreme court ruling that the administration should “facilitate” bringing him back.
Lawyers for the justice department argued in court filings on Sunday that asking El Salvador to return Abrego García from a notorious mega-prison should be considered “foreign relations”, and was therefore outside the scope of the courts.
The filing said “the federal courts have no authority to direct the Executive Branch to conduct foreign relations in a particular way, or engage with a foreign sovereign in a given manner,” adding: “That is the ‘exclusive power of the president as the sole organ of the federal government in the field of international relations.”
Earlier this month, the Trump administration acknowledged that Abrego García, an immigrant from El Salvador who was living in Maryland with protected status, was deported to a prison in El Salvador on 15 March as a result of an “administrative error”. In 2019 an immigration judge had prohibited the federal government from deporting him."
Folks, we are through the looking glass now and if you can't see that it's one and truly fascism, that's because you don't know what the word means. Apologists will claim that we are still not yet in a "constitutional crisis" because of the regime's paper thin excuse that they're interpreting the SCOTUS ruling to mean all they had to do is remove "domestic" barriers to Garcia's return, while claiming they have no authority to effect the return of a man they're literally paying the government of El Salvador to house in a prison famous for torture and forced labor. This is at best, wish-casting and codswallop of course, because the regime is openly broadcasting its intention to flout the Supreme Court's ruling *while* Trump meets with Nayib Bukele, the President of El Salvador at the White House; these fascist mutherfuckers just said "let them enforce it" while trolling the shit out of every judge in America. Just examine some of the comments from Bukele and Trump regime officials for yourself:
“How can I smuggle a terrorist into the United States? I’m not going to do it,” says Bukele. “I don’t have the power to return him to the United States.”
“The foreign policy of the United States is conducted by the president of the United States, not by a court. And no court in the United States has a right to conduct the foreign policy of the United States,” Marco Rubio adds."
“The [supreme court] ruling solely stated that if this individual at El Salvador’s sole discretion was sent back to our country, that we could deport him a second time,” Stephen Miller says.
"No version of this legally ends with him ever living here because he is a citizen of El Salvador."
"In 2019 two courts ruled that he was a member of MS13 and he was illegally in our country. Right now, it was additional paperwork had needed to be done. That’s up to El Salvador if they want to return him – that’s not up to us. The supreme court ruled that if El Salvador wants to return him, we would ‘facilitate’ it, meaning provide a plane." - US Attorney General, Pam Bondi.
During that same meeting with Bukele, Trump once again admitted that he also wants to pay to send American "criminals" to a slave labor prison in El Salvador his regime is simultaneously arguing is that the US government has no requirement, power, or authority to return prisoners from, even under court order. Need I remind you that this is the same administration currently arguing in public that a wide variety of protestors are actually domestic fucking terrorists? Please understand that if the Trump regime can successfully argue that it can keep a man they already admitted should not have been deported, in a Salvadoran prison despite the law, and a direct SCOTUS order, because once they've sent him there its a matter of foreign policy and jurisdictional authority, then there is absolutely nothing stopping them from sending ANYONE to Cecot and claiming it's too late to undo this. The regime is now attempting to legalize disappearing its perceived enemies; full stop.
