Trump Team in Backchannel Talks on Deportations

Bloomberg: “Trump doesn’t take office for another month, but his emissaries have already been quietly reaching out to contacts in Mexico and El Salvador about taking in some of those who are expelled.”

“The contacts are aimed at laying the groundwork for plans to both stem illegal border crossings and find a place to accept the people Trump kicks out.”

“Some of the outreach is to government officials and discussions are going through backchannels, like business leaders in those countries.”
