Bet heavily on nothing, except a brief publicity tour for Senator Chris Van Hollen. The Maryland Democrat demanded a meeting with Salvadoran president Nayib Bukele during his state visit with Donald Trump, and got snubbed. Not that it would have mattered much; Bukele scoffed at the idea of sending Salvadoran citizen Kilmar Abrego Garcia back to the US after his deportation.
If Bukele won’t meet with Van Hollen in Washington, then Van Hollen says he will fly to San Salvador and demand a meeting wth Bukele there. One way or the other, Van Hollen insists, he will bring back Abrego Garcia:
