I digress on that because we got the wonderful Oscar Blue Ramirez joining us actually live from El Salvador.

I'm quite envious you got to tour Seacott.

If anyone from El Salvador is listening, I would love to go there.

You had a wonderful tour.

You have wonderful content up on your social media.

I understand you are with the Minister of Defense.

You've been learning all about how it's working with American deportation efforts.

Walk the audience through where you are, what you've seen, and what you're doing.

It seems like a lot of the issues that we're having that are stalling the mass deportations have to do with infrastructure, building capacity.

I think they're now buying up some warehouses.

It's quite expensive.

But what do you think the United States could learn from how El Salvador is dealing with this?

I mean, like you said, just mass incarceration, mass housing of very bad hombres, to use a term.

What do you think are the lessons that the United States can take?

Well, in talking about that alliance, I mean, I think I'm certainly heartened to see, obviously, that in Costa Rica, they had a populist of Laura Fernandez victory there.

But I think that the Seacott story is one that fits very nicely with President Trump's national security strategy, the Donro doctrine, whatever you want to call it.

But, you know, prioritizing the Western hemisphere, ensuring not just that the Chinese Communist Party doesn't take over these countries, but that they actually can be used to sort of

benefit the United States from a national security perspective.

This template where we see these, you know, positive sort of mutually beneficial symbiotic relationships between us and these, you know, Latin Central South American countries, where else do you see that playing out?

I know you're around the region a lot, but do you think you could see this sort of replicate itself in other countries as well?
