Gotta say, detaining a sitting US senator would be a hell of an escalation.

So he visited him and then what…. Back into the cell? They didn’t take him right then and there?

I had the same thought, this is so peak lib.

You’re there with the guy, and you have a court ruling saying facilitate his return. Do that, by cuffing him to yourself, and demanding they let you both walk away. El Salvador don’t want heat from abducting a US statesman.

But no, this is just a photo op it seems.

I do appreciate the idea of the handcuff thing, but they'd just cut it off or pick the lock.

Even if they don't abduct him, they'd probably be more willing to rough him up.

MS-13 member according to which judge and jury? What exactly is he charged with? As long as we're ditching the justice system, we the people might as well make some extrajudicial convictions too.

The New York Times should publish this as its front page tomorrow, with malicious edits and all, and address it below.
