    Trump Admin Moves Quietly To Drop Charges
    Against MS-13 Leaders
    Jun 26 2025


    President Donald Trump made of law
    and order a key pillar of his
    campaign and administration,
    promising to prosecute and deport
    undocumented migrants, many of whom
    are believed to be violent gang
    members.

    However, as he strengthens his
    relationship with El Salvador's
    Nayib Bukele, Trump is reportedly
    willing to drop charges to leaders
    of one of the most prominent
    international gangs that hails
    from the Central American country
    and has been linked to Bukele.

    According to a new report from El
    Faro, an outlet extremely critical
    of Bukele, the president has
    seemingly convinced Trump to drop
    charges against leaders of the Mara
    Salvatrucha-13 (MS-13) gang who had
    been accused of terrorism and
    ordered to be prosecuted during the
    first Trump term.

    If the charges are dropped, the
    Republican president would also be
    tossing the work of Vulcan, a joint
    task force with great fanfare
    announced in 2019 as a unit
    specially designed to combat MS-13,
    bringing together the Department
    of Homeland Security, several
    federal agencies, and ten
    prosecutors' offices which had
    operated in five countries.
