DEAR EDITOR:

Kilmar Abrego Garcia still sits in El Salvador’s most notorious prison. The other day, on April 14, President Trump, the most powerful man in the world, and El Salvador’s president Bukele, agreed that nothing could be done to free Garcia.

How about this? Since Trump is such a tough guy, he should threaten to invade El Salvador or make it the 51st state. Give them 24 hours to release an American citizen. I keep waiting for our two senators and our congressman Mike Rulli to say something. Bernie Moreno ought to be a bit concerned since he was born in Colombia.

But all three might want to argue in their respective venues, all politics aside, for the rule of law and the sanctity of American citizenship. Our Republican representatives in Congress have surrendered their duties as enumerated in our Constitution to be independent of the executive. Next election vote them out!
