(PJ Media)—Sens. Chris Van Hollen (D-Md.), Alex Padilla (D-Calif.), and Tim Kaine (D-Va.) — or as I like to call them the Three Muskattention Whores — must not have a lot going on in their home states because they seem awfully intent on sticking it to El Salvador at the moment. More specifically, they want Donald Trump, Marco Rubio, and Scott Bessent to impose sanctions on el presidente Nayibe Bukele and his vice president, Felix Ulloa, as well as several of the country’s other ministers and government officials and even unnamed folks who might fit the senators’ criteria.
Last month these three clowns introduced the El Salvador Accountability Act of 2025, legislation that calls for everything from property-blocking sanctions to stripping the officials of their visas due to “gross violations of internationally recognized human rights” because the country is supposedly “colluding with the Trump Administration” to detain United States deportees, according to Van Hollen. The legislation also insists that Rubio provide a report on the Salvadoran use of cryptocurrencies (El Salvador was the first country in the world to adopt Bitcoin as legal tender, and these guys insist that there’s something corrupt about it), and it blocks U.S. assistance to El Salvador until certain standards are met.
“We must hold Bukele and his cronies accountable for these wrongful actions as well as for the gross violations of human rights they are committing in El Salvador,” Van Hollen said last month when he announced the bill.
Long story short, these three are wasting even more taxpayer dollars and time to introduce a bill that will never get passed, in an attempt to tell a sovereign nation how to run itself and ruin our country’s relationship with one of our greatest allies in Latin America.
Where do you even start with something like this? First, let’s go with the obvious. These guys don’t care about what happens in El Salvador. They don’t care about the Salvadoran people. They just want to find any excuse they can to go after Donald Trump, and at the end of the day, they’ll use anyone and anything in their path to do so. Democrats love to preach about “people with brown skin,” but ultimately, they only see them as pawns in their political games. There are days when this makes me sick to my stomach.
