"I'm all for it. If they can house these horrible criminals for a lot less money than it costs us, I'm all for it," Trump said.
Summary
Trump expressed support for sending American citizens to El Salvador’s CECOT prison, praising President Bukele’s tough-on-crime stance.
The U.S. already deported 238 Venezuelans there under the 1798 Alien Enemies Act, despite federal judges calling the transfers unlawful and ordering returns.
Trump said he’d be “honored” to send repeat U.S. offenders abroad if legal. Critics, including judges and rights advocates, condemned the plan as unconstitutional and authoritarian.
Legal experts warn no U.S. law permits outsourcing American incarceration, raising serious due process and human rights concerns.
America has the highest incarceration rate in the world. The average maximum security prison holds 800-1200 prisoners. The largest, Angola, LA, holds over 8000.
Guantanamo Bay, located in CUBA (WTF?), currently holds about 120. They are now building a facility there, that will hold 30,000 prisoners. That's nearly 4 times our largest prison, which is about 8 times larger than average.
The question is: Who do they intend to put in that new facility, which is far from any oversight by the media or the courts. It's in fucking Cuba, which is controlled by...well, you get it.
I was a victim of the recent Reddit bloodbath, with a 12 year/ 900K+ karma account. Clearly, they reviewed my high-volume posting account, and they know how I feel about them, and the punishments they have earned. I expect that at some point, there is a pretty good chance I'll be getting a free vacation to Cuba.
You mean the same person who spent many thousands out of pocket in an effort to kill 5 minority children, found out they were innocent via DNA, and had no regrets, is a sociopathic piece of shit that no execution method is too extreme for? No way

More importantly, are there any laws banning outsourcing American incarceration? Because they don't need a law to allow it, they just there to not be a law banning it.
More importantly, are there any laws banning outsourcing American incarceration?
Yes. The US Constitution:
Fifth Amendment (prohibits imprisonment without due process and indictment by a grand jury)
Sixth Amendment (enumerates rights entailed in due process for any criminal facing prosecution)
Eighth Amendment ("Excessive bail shall not be required, nor excessive fines imposed, nor cruel and unusual punishments inflicted.")
The Eighth is the most clearly in play, supposing the courts actually follow the US Constitution, which they've been flagrantly ignoring for several decades (ex. there is no good faith interpretation of the Fourth Amendment that allows civil asset forfeiture or compelling anyone in the US to unlock a smartphone or surrender it for cloning, nor for the Fifth and Sixth which allow removing individuals to a military base to be held without trial).
Why are these judges not issuing arrest orders for those involved in denying their edicts? We all know the melting orange isn't personally putting people on planes (he never personally does anything except drive a golf cart and eat hamberders), so surely the people involved in openly defying judges can be arrested, no?
