24:59Now PlayingThe Texas General Land Office has offered President-elect Donald Trump a massive Starr County ranch on which to build a deportation facility and detention centers. The news comes amid Trump's 2024 election promise of the mass deportation of immigrants.
In a letter, Texas Land Commissioner Dawn Buckingham notified Trump she had purchased a 1,402-acre ranch along the U.S.-Mexico border, about 35 miles west of McAllen. She also assured him that her office would work with federal agencies to construct a detention center.
"My office is fully prepared to enter into an agreement with the Department of Homeland Security, Immigration and Customs Enforcement, or the United States Border Patrol to allow a facility to be built for the processing, detention, and coordination of the largest deportation of violent criminals in the nation’s history," Buckingham wrote.
