Oops! El Salvadoran President Accused Of Cutting Deals With Violent Gangs - The Logical Leftist
What if the tough-on-crime image of El Salvador's President Nayib Bukele is just a facade? In this compelling video, we investigate the recent findings from Pro-Publica that suggest Bukele may have struck a deal with MS-13 gang leaders early in his presidency. We discuss how his administration allegedly blocked the extradition of gang members who could have testified against him and how U.S. aid funds may have been misappropriated to bolster gang power in exchange for political favors. This video sheds light on the murky intersection of crime and politics in El Salvador, raising important questions about the true nature of Bukele's governance. Tune in for an in-depth look at these revelations and their potential impact on the future of El Salvador.
