Why dozens of journalists and human rights leaders are fleeing El Salvador Nayib Bukele, emboldened by his alliance with President Trump, has arrested critics, causing many dissident to flee.

An extremely important part of this report from @benzipperer.org @epi.org is calculating the state by state job losses that will result from mass deportations

Inoue Vs MJ is going to be fascinating. I'd like to see Cardenas vs Nery

Just finished watching the fight. Joel Diaz gave Cardenas a great game plan. Inoue is absolutely brilliant.
