In an attempt to strike back at the criminal gangs making life tough for its honest citizens, President Nayib Bukele has been rounding up and arresting gang members that have extorted, mutilated and murdered people for decades. This anti-crime campaign has reduced the number of Salvadorans crossing US borders by 22% and earned the country sanctions from the Biden Administration.
US Secretary of Homeland Security Alejandro Mayorkas defended the sanctions, complaining "who asked Bukele to crack down on so-called crime? The gangs he targeted were aiding migrants to make their way to America. These people are sorely needed to do the work that Americans are unwilling to do. The gangs also facilitate the transport of fentanyl and other drugs, that as Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau points out, are desperately needed by addicts."
Sen. Marco Rubio (R-Fla) called Biden's policy toward El Salvador "as misguided as it possibly could be. Why should the country be punished for making its citizens safer? Aside from the fact that President Bukele's actions are reducing the flow of refugees it is also saving the lives of its citizens as well as drug addicts in Canada and the United States. Is President Biden simply stupid? Or is he evil?"
