Justin and Sumi take a closer look into the deepening relationship between Donald Trump and El Salvador’s President Nayib Bukele, as the row over the deportation of migrants to the Central American country escalates.

Could the Trump administration run into further trouble with the law over its handling of the situation? And, what's in it for Bukele?

Plus, what else have we missed in the news cycle? Sumi shares one story at the US-Mexico border that’s flown under the radar this week.

HOSTS:

- Justin Webb, Radio 4 presenter - Sumi Somaskanda, Chief Presenter in Washington
