YouTube Description
as posted by the channelPresident Donald Trump will head to Florida Tuesday for the official opening of an immigration detention camp in the Everglades that is surrounded by alligators, aptly dubbed "Alligator Alcatraz," the White House confirmed Monday.
Governor Ron DeSantis authorized the construction of an illegal immigrant detention center on a 30-square-mile property in the Everglades' swamplands of Miami–Dade County under an emergency order. The property is a former airport that has been outfitted with sturdy tent structures to house 5,000 illegal immigrants amid the Trump administration's deportation blitz to remove the millions of illegal migrants who flooded the nation during the Biden administration.
The detention center earned its name due to its location in the heart of the Everglades, which is home to massive reptiles such as alligators and pythons.
White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt touted the facility as "an efficient and low-cost way to help carry out the largest mass deportation campaign in American history."
Trump will be joined by DHS Secretary Kristi Noem, DeSantis and other Florida officials.
