What a bunch of smug nonsense. I bet you also rationalize slavery as “the plantations were so much more luxurious than where they were living before”. There’s no end to the glib, twisted fictions MAGA weirdos invent to justify their cruelty and dehumanizing of others. |
You forgot to add that the unique security feature of the facility is literally the surrounding swampland filled with alligators. How do you think that looks to the rest of the world? |
A Hurricane will blow that tent down in one puff |
That area of Florida is also home to malaria, leprosy, and Burmese pythons. As for it being a “temporary structure”, that talking point is brought to you by the same people who assured us Trump wouldn’t implement Project 2025 or get us into any wars. Why should we believe any of the lies MAGA tells? |
An immigration detention center has been constructed and was expected to open this week on an airfield in the Everglades, about 45 miles west of Miami, Florida, to house as many as 5,000 detainees before deportation. State officials dubbed the facility “Alligator Alcatraz” because the surrounding swampy area is inhabited by alligators, pythons and mosquitoes, and its isolation is reminiscent of the infamous, former federal prison on an island in San Francisco Bay.
We received several emails from readers asking about the facility and whether it was being funded by FEMA. The initial $450 million needed to create and operate the detention center in its first year was provided by the state of Florida, WINK News reported. The state will seek reimbursement through FEMA’s Shelter and Services Program, not the agency’s Disaster Relief Fund, which supports recovery efforts associated with major disasters and emergencies. As we’ve written, the Disaster Relief Fund receives separate funding from Congress. The Shelter and Services Program was approved by Congress and created in 2023 under the Biden administration “to alleviate overcrowding in short-term [Customs and Border Protection] holding facilities and support non-federal entities with shelter and related activities for noncitizens released from [Department of Homeland Security] custody and awaiting their immigration court proceedings,” a 2024 DHS report explained. https://www.factcheck.org/2025/07/a-dedicated-fema-fund-will-pay-for-alligator-alcatraz/ |
I love this so much. Thank God for PDJT!!!! |
Its already flooding. |
PP ia absolutely right. These illegal aliens were incentivized by the Biden admin. to make a treacherous journey at the hands of the cartels. Many died. Others were victimized - women and children raped. There are still tens of thousands of UAM that have not been located that the Biden admin farmed out to "sponsors" that were not vetted. This is actually an improvement. |
So Florida will be reimbursed by FEMA, the agency Trump wants to eliminate. |
You’re only proving the point that MAGA will endlessly justify anything grotesque, including slavery and ethnic cleansing, as somehow being beneficial for its targets. Keep digging. |
Except that they’re also going to be victimized and sexually abused *while imprisoned in a concentration camp*. |
What does MAGA love best of all? 1) hurting brown people and 2) owning the libs. They get to do both with Alligator Alcatraz. It wouldn't be as fun for them if we were just talking about a boring conventional detention center. |
This. It's too bad MAGA didn't like school and pay attention in history class...or maybe they were like Bobert and dropped out. I'm not sure but the lack of education and critical thinking skills of trump voters is sorely lacking. READ MAGA it will help you. You are in a hate filled CULT! |
I'm quite sure that the health and safety of women and children was a paramount consideration for you and the rest of MAGA. Because nothing says "compassion" like MAGA. |
The GOP already voted against a federal wage increase this year. I think the vote was in April…but this year is so crazy that feels like a lifetime ago. In any case, I love the maga who are totally pro the things that maga congress is against, or does silently like hire undocumented immigrants (looking at you felon). |
