President Donald Trump will visit the 'Alligator Alcatraz' facility in the Florida Everglades on Tuesday. 
By Rebecca Henrys

US President Donald Trump is expected to visit the new 'Alligator Alcatraz' migrant detention centre in Florida on Tuesday.

Listen to this article

The new facility will formally open today following its rapid construction by the administration of Florida Governor Ron DeSantis.

It has been built on a little used airstrip in the Florida Everglades that was seized by Gov. DeSantis using emergency powers and will be used to house up to 3,000 people.

President Trump is due to visit the site as the first detainees are set to arrive later today.

 
White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt described the facility as an 'efficient and low-cost way' to conduct the 'largest mass-deportation campaign in American history'.

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address

If illegals were housed in 5-star hotels, the left would bitch because they didn't have enough spending money. :nono:

Excerpt:
Before boarding his flight to the Florida Everglades, President Trump couldn’t resist cracking a few jokes about the now-infamous detention facility dubbed “Alligator Alcatraz.” And let’s just say, his off-the-cuff comments about potential inmate escape attempts had everyone laughing—and cheering.



You can run ... But you can't hide 🤣🤣🤣
I love my President!

They can’t beat him, can’t silence him, and definitely can’t lock him up.

The man’s turning political persecution into prime-time comedy gold.
Alligator Alcatraz? 😂🐊

Trump’s running laps around the deep state, again.

2024 was the warm up. 2028 is loading.

Love his sense of humor.

This is an excellent spot for a prison.  The only two-lane road is elevated through a maze of cypress trees, sawgrass prairie, and reptiles.  I'd rather try to swim to shore from Alcatraz to be honest.

3000 bed prison in 8 days?  And what RDS does (almost miracles in Hurricane Response).

I am still hoping he has a good shot at '28.  This guy is masterful administrator.

Trump: We Used FEMA Money Biden Allocated for Luxury Housing for Illegals in NYC to Construct ‘Alligator Alcatraz’

The government used FEMA money allocated by the Biden administration to house illegal migrants in luxury hotels in New York City to construct “Alligator Alcatraz” in the Florida Everglades, President Donald Trump said Tuesday during a roundtable discussion after touring the facility.

Whenever I read about this facility I am reminded of an old Steve McQueen movie. He is escaping prison thru a swamp guided by Suzanne Pleshette. She gets snake bit and dies. Steve gets out...but after all he is the star of the movie. :laugh:

I wonder if any of those illegals can eat 50 eggs?
You don’t become cooler with age but you do care progressively less about being cool, which is the only true way to actually be cool.
