WOW. The Trump admin is rewriting reality, erasing accountability for any nation with close ties to Trump โ including Russia, El Salvador, and Israel.The El Salvador report changes are egregious, totally erasing well-documented abuses. And the impact will be severe. Quick ๐งต.

By striking out any reference to human rights abuses in El Salvador or persecution of LGBTQ+ individuals in Russia, the Trump admin is firmly placing its finger on the scale and trying to get judges and asylum officers to deny asylum for some countries and for disfavored groups.
