YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

Attorney General Pam Bondi and Interior Secretary Doug Burgum visited Alcatraz as part of a controversial proposal to reopen the former prison. President Trump floated the idea of re-opening Alcatraz in May, drawing push back from critics. Rep. Pelosi said in a statement, "The planned announcement to reopen Alcatraz as a federal penitentiary is the Trump Administration’s stupidest initiative yet." Alcatraz formerly held some of the nation’s most notorious criminals, including one of Trump's favorite talking points, Al Capone.
