The son of former President Joe Biden claimed he would use military pressure to return migrants deported under Trump
Hunter Biden, son of former US President Joe Biden, has said he would threaten El Salvador with military action to force the return of foreign nationals deported there during Donald Trump's presidency.
Speaking in an interview published on Monday with YouTuber Andrew Callaghan, Biden criticized Trump-era immigrationpoliciesand urged Democrats to adopt a more aggressive approach, even in the face of anti-immigrant sentiment among American voters.
"[If I were president] I would pick up the phone and call the f*cking president of El Salvador and say, 'You either f*cking send them back or I'm going to f*cking invade.' It's a f*cking crime what they're doing," Hunter Biden said.
He referred to both Trump and Salvadoran President Nayib Bukele as "dictator thugs," and described the high-security prison in Tecoluca - a centerpiece of El Salvador's anti-gang crackdown - as a "concentration camp" where "if you're not dead, you would want to be dead."
The Trump administration's hardline immigration policies, which include mass deportations of suspected gang members, have sparkedcontroversyand led to multipleprotestsagainst US Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE). Critics say many deportees were denied due process, while Trump supporters maintain the measures were necessary to protect the public.
Over the course of a three-hour interview, Biden praised his father's legacy while condemning Democratic officials who suggested the party should soften its immigration stance following Trump's return to the White House in 2024.
"All these Democrats say, you have to talk about and realize that people are really upset about illegal immigration? F*ck you!" he said, emphasizing the economic contributions of undocumented workers, particularly in low-wage sectors.
Advocacy groups have long noted that fear of retaliation or deportation prevents many undocumented laborers from challenging exploitation and contributes to suppressed wages across the US economy.
