Amy GoodmanHOST
Back in El Salvador, Bukele's so-called state of exception, first declared in 2022, has led to the arbitrary arrest of tens of thousands of people, many wrongfully accused of being gang members and denied due process rights while imprisoned in torturous conditions.
Amy GoodmanHOST
President Bukele spoke from San Salvador Thursday.
Nayib BukeleSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
I told the gangs in Haiti, we wiped out the gangs in El Salvador, and we can do the same to you.
Nayib BukeleSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
In other words, it was a warning, and our mission isn't to wipe out the gangs in Haiti, but our mission is to rescue our four members.

Simon WhistlerHOST
But, within a day after Bukele announced his new operation, Salvadoran officials confirmed that the first 100 Special Forces soldiers had already arrived on the ground.
Simon WhistlerHOST
Fast forward to today, and roughly a thousand Salvadoran troops have deployed to the country after a series of shuttle runs from San Salvador to Haiti on tactical airlifters sent from the United States.
Simon WhistlerHOST
Speaking to Reuters, an anonymous Haitian official indicated that it's not clear how long those troops will remain in Haiti, or who will be in charge, or whether the Salvadoran deployment might continue to grow.
Simon WhistlerHOST
As of the time of writing, however, those Salvadoran troops do not appear to be working under the mandate of the gang suppression force.
Simon WhistlerHOST
End quote.
Simon WhistlerHOST
If that's true, and the gangs aren't even asking a ransom from El Salvador, then the plight of those troops is even more serious than it might otherwise be.
Simon WhistlerHOST
In that scenario, the gangs would have no incentive to ensure that the troops make it back in one piece, that they could be held and hidden indefinitely or even killed without informing San Salvador.
Simon WhistlerHOST
Of course, those gangsters are also going up against Nayib Bukele, a man who is nothing if not committed to gaining compliance or submission from his adversaries once he decides that that's what he wants.
Sebastian SalazarHOST
I think CONCACAF Nations League and generally like we talk about Gold Cup always being in the U.S., we need to see some of these other venues again.
Sebastian SalazarHOST
You know, there was a time for you and I when the visuals of playing in Tegucigalpa or wherever it might be, San Salvador.
Sebastian SalazarHOST
Yes, Costa Rica, those games on the turf.
Sebastian SalazarHOST
You know, you knew what those meant.
Steve EndowHOST
Toy shopping was last Friday.
Steve EndowHOST
So they rented a van and a driver, a micro boost to San Salvador, but for $500 worth of toys for over 150 kids.
Steve EndowHOST
And yeah, we're getting ready for the Christmas festival.
Steve EndowHOST
And Franklin worked for the last two weeks on one of our marketplace apps, we discovered some latent bugs and flaws in there that we're baffled how they stayed in there after numerous reviews.
