> These people were rendered to a prison where they're meant to spend the rest of their lives
These men were never intended to spend the rest of their lives at CECOT, nor did they. All were released in July 2025 to their home country of Venezuela, and they were in El Salvador for a total of 125 days.

Kristi Noem indicated publicly that they should stay there "the rest of their lives."
