For context: Florida is swiftly constructing an immigrant detention middle at an airfield within the Everglades, surrounded by alligators, pythons, and mosquitoes. Officers are calling it “Alligator Alcatraz,” the place the Trump administration plans to accommodate hundreds of immigrants in tents amid the president’s promise to implement the most important mass deportation in US historical past. Set to open in early July, the detention middle was largely funded by the Federal Emergency Administration Company (FEMA).
Officers have made controversial statements about “Alligator Alcatraz,” with Florida Lawyer Basic James Uthmeier saying, “You need not make investments that a lot within the perimeter. If folks get out, there’s not a lot ready for them apart from alligators and pythons.”
