Today, President Donald J. Trump welcomes Salvadoran President Nayib Bukele to the White House, where they will highlight their historic collaboration aimed at creating a safer world.
Thanks to the joint efforts of these two leaders, numerous violent illegal immigrants—including killers, rapists, gang members, and other dangerous criminals—have been quickly removed from our streets.
Below is a brief overview of some of the cold-blooded criminals deported to El Salvador:
