    Someone else linked it below (https://ia802801.us.archive.org/15/items/insidececot/60minutesCECOTsegment.mp4).

    It’s only a 15 minute watch, so worth checking out. The TLDW is that the US government is sending non-criminals seeking asylum to be tortured in El Salvador. 97% of people sent there have no criminal record. The people there were beaten, sexually assaulted, starved, denied access to medical care and clean water, forced to remain in stress positions, subject to bright light 24 hours a day, and/or thrown in pitch black isolation cells with no light.

      There is nothing surprising about the video if you’ve been keeping up with the news and not making excuses. It’s just confirmation of what I’ve known.

        It’s not a surprise to those of us, still scrolling through this thread of interest. And yet, there’s still more people who weren’t sure if the prior claims were true and yet more that still don’t give a fuck.
