The president of the United States is disappearing people to a Salvadoran prison for terrorists: a prison built for disappearance, a prison where there is no education or remediation or recreation, a prison where the only way out, according to El Salvador’s justice minister, is in a coffin.
The president says he wants to send “homegrown” Americans there next.
This is the emergency. Like it or not, it’s here.
