Co-hosts Jared Yates Sexton and Nick Hauselman break down the troubling press conference between Donald Trump and El Salvador’s President Nayib Bukele, exposing the blatant authoritarianism on display — especially as the administration defies a unanimous Supreme Court ruling to return Kilmar Abrego Garcia to the U.S. They also discuss Bill Maher's shocking admission that he visited the White House last week, helping to normalize a figure who should be anything but normalized.
