Senate Democrats warn that housing migrants at Guantanamo Bay pose threat to military readiness

The senators cited previous reports that alleged abuse and mistreatment of detainees in facilities operated by the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), and expressed concern that those same abuses could happen to migrants at Guantanamo.

A group of Senate Democrats on Friday sent a letter to Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, warning him that housing thousands of illegal migrants at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, will pose a threat to military readiness, and the civil rights of detainees.
 
President Donald Trump signed an executive order last month to have the departments of Defense and Homeland Security expand Guantanamo Bay to temporarily hold thousands of illegal migrants.

The location is intended to be a transitional place for criminal illegal migrants who were in the process of being deported, in order to get them off the U.S. mainland faster.

“We oppose placing U.S. military and DoD civilian personnel in the legally and morally tenuous position of conducting mass migrant detention operations," the group, led by Georgia Democratic Sen. Jon Ossoff, wrote. "Our men and women in uniform are warfighters, not jailers of migrants.

You know what actually poses a threat to military readiness that democrats don’t give a damn about? Taking service members money that is supposed to pay for feeding them nourishing meals, spending it on God knows what and when feeding them anything at all it’s small portions of crap. Also having them live in run down mold infested housing that we wouldn’t allow illegals to live in.
