I just landed in San Salvador a little while ago, and I look forward to meeting with the team at the U.S. embassy to discuss the release of Mr. Abrego Garcia. I also hope to meet with Salvadoran officials and with Kilmar himself. He was illegally abducted and needs to come home.

For no reason, I am thinking of my grandmother's dad, who died during a shift at the factory 100 years ago. He was emaciated and so sick he couldn't speak, but he still had to go to work. They found him in the bathroom, "lying in an immense pool of blood which was welling from his mouth and nose."

Unreal: the story of an Australian MMA coach sent to a harrowing detention prison upon arriving in the US with a visa to lead a seminar. In case you had any doubt if it’s worth the risk of trying to enter the US unless absolutely necessary. www.instagram.com/p/DIEA_nBpCC...
