5:40Now PlayingAccording to Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem, at least 5 states have been begging her agency to build migrant concentration camps in their states, similar to the “Alligator Alcatraz” facility in Florida. This comes on the heels of reports about the disgusting and inhuman conditions under which migrants are being held in Florida. The cruelty is the point, and more Republican governors want to get in on the abuse. Ring of Fire’s Farron Cousins explains what’s happening.

So Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem has obviously not had a good couple of weeks here between everybody hating her for immigration, even Fox News, calling her out to the devastating response to the Texas floods that was delayed by days that caused countless more people to die than probably should have. But don't worry, things are not all bad for Kristi Noem, right? She's got a couple things going for her, specifically, according to Noem herself, all these other red states in the country seem to love the Everglades Auschwitz so much, or Alligator Alcatraz as the administration's merchandise, says that she is currently working with five different red states to build their own versions of alligator Alcatraz in their states. Or to put it more bluntly, she's talking to five other Republican governors who also want a Florida style concentration camp for migrants who have done nothing wrong. Here is what Nome said During a recent pre press conference, we've had several other states that are actually using alligator Alcatraz as a model for how they can partner with us as well. I'm having ongoing conversations with five other governors about facilities that they may have. I would challenge some Democrats to start taking care of your state's partner with us in a way to make your community safer.
In other words, Democrats, why are you not waking up and building your own concentration camps? This is super fun for anybody who may not know this, um, with this so-called alligator Alcatraz, which again, I think the better name for it is the Everglades Auschwitz. Um, there's already big giant road signs on the highway that say alligator Alcatraz. They're literally advertising it. Maga freaks are stopping their cars on the interstate, getting out and taking pictures with the signs Trump has put out, you know, AI generated images of him with alligators and ice hats. They're literally selling merch for it. They love it. They love the cruelty. Multiple Democratic lawmakers, including Maxwell Frost and Debbie Wasserman Schultz went down there this past weekend and left, you know, furious and heartbroken. You got 32 people to a chain link cage. They're drinking water out of toilets. They're being served food with maggots on it. They have had all of their personal belongings confiscated. And of course, some of them have said, I even have my papers showing I'm legally allowed to be here, but I was rounded up and put in this concentration camp. It is hell, it is torture. And according to no Democrats, you need to get in on this action. There's a hell of a lot of fun. We're enjoying it. But that's not nearly as bad as the thought that five other Republican controlled states are telling Homeland
Security. We want concentration camps too. We, we wanna do this. This looks fun. We'll come up with clever names for our torture prisons. This is America in the year 2025, building concentration camps, internment camps, whatever you want to call 'em. This is how it starts here and it has started. It's no longer a Well, what would you do if you were in the situation? No, we're in the situation. We, we, we don't have to go into hypotheticals. We don't have to, you know, think Well, they're not building camps for us. They are, though. They are. And when they run outta migrants, who do you think is gonna be the next group to go to the camps? Because they're paying for 'em, right? Alligator Auschwitz is, uh, already $450 million per year to operate. You think they're just either gonna shut it down and save the money or spend the money for nobody to be there? Hell no. These things are being made and they're going to be permanent.
