"Asked by a reporter if the White House believes it has the power to deport American citizens to Central America prisons or if it has to change the law to do so, Leavitt said: "It's another question that the president has raised." She added, "It's a legal question that the president is looking into." Trump "would only consider this, if legal, for Americans who are the most violent, egregious, repeat offenders of crime who nobody in this room wants living in their communities," Leavitt said. Asked to explain the legal basis for sending U.S. citizens to El Salvador prisons, Leavitt said: "We're looking at it."
