    Extradition treaties have to be negotiated. You can’t just stick 50,000 people on a bunch of airplanes to Caracas and drop them off.

      Maybe not at this scale, but Republicans have already been bussing and flying people for a while now. Martha’s Vineyard ring any bells. This isn’t extradition, it’s deportation. They just just want these people out of their hometowns.

      Extradition is if you commit a crime and flee to a different country, the first country can demand the second country send them back to stand trial. Sorry you have your terms mixed up.
