Secretary of State Marco Rubio met with El Salvador's President Nayib Bukele Monday and said that "in an act of extraordinary friendship" Bukele had agreed not only to take in deported foreign nationals who committed crimes -- but also jailed American citizens and permanent residents.

"He has agreed to accept for deportation any illegal alien in the United States who is a criminal, from any nationality -- be they MS-13 or Tren de Aqua -- and house them in his jails," Rubio said.

"He has offered to house in his jails dangerous American criminals in custody in our country, including those of U.S. citizens and legal residents," he added.

Rubio called the deal the “most unprecedented and extraordinary migratory agreement anywhere in the world” and said, “No country has ever made an offer of friendship such as this."

President Donald Trump has previously mused about sending repeat offenders abroad, even if they are lawfully in the United States.

The president would need to clear several legal hurdles, given the 8th Amendment prohibits "cruel and unusual punishments," broadly considered to include exile.

Federal employees on Monday have started receiving an email from their specific agency's human resources department that contains a PDF contract version of the deferred resignation offer sent around last week from the Office of Personnel Management (OPM), according to multiple federal employees across multiple agencies who shared emails with ABC News.

The contract largely lays out what OPM has previously stated would be offered if an employee accepts the deal with one major addition -- the employee "forever waives" the right to take legal action against their agency.

The guidance attaches new legal strings, including waiving an employee’s right to future claims by themselves or their union. The guidance appears to try to head off potential lawsuits against the government for employment offers.

The Senate confirmed Chris Wright to lead the Department of Energy by a vote of 59-38.

Wright, who has never worked in a government position, founded the publicly traded oilfield services firm Liberty Energy in 2010, which fracks 20% of the onshore wells nationally.

The $3 billion company is involved in nearly 10% of the U.S.'s total energy production, according to Wright.

Wright is an outspoken critic of policies aimed at curbing climate change, including the Department of Energy's goal to reach net-zero carbon emissions by 2050.

One USAID contractor who is currently on official travel for a "high priority emergency response" told ABC News the move to dismantle the agency has "severely impacted" their ability to assist people in need and will have "lasting implications."

The personal services contractor said they are traveling on a "high-priority emergency response."

They are among the contractors who say they are "stuck abroad on official travel with no guidance on how to proceed, where they are able to work, how to get home or whether they are able to work."

Additionally, the contractor said they have been removed from U.S. Embassy safety and security systems.
