El Salvador's President Nayib Bukele has reacted strongly to U.S. President Donald Trump's call for the impeachment of a judge. Bukele stated that "The U.S. is facing a judicial coup" in a post shared on social media platform X. Trump made his remarks about Judge James E. Boasberg after a legal decision involving the deportation of certain illegal migrants. He described the judge as a "Radical Left Lunatic" and criticized him for blocking the deportation process. In response, Bukele and entrepreneur Elon Musk both supported Trump's claims. Trump's concern centers around the deportation of members of the Venezuelan criminal group Tren de Aragua, as well as other violent offenders. Recently, 261 illegal migrants were sent back to El Salvador, among them members of Tren de Aragua and MS-13 gang leaders. In his posts, Trump emphasized that he believes a President should have the authority to remove dangerous criminals from the country. He warned that without such powers, the U.S. faces serious problems. The situation continues to evolve amid ongoing legal and political debates.
