The first group of detainees has arrived at Florida’s new Alligator Alcatraz detention center in the Everglades. This facility will house illegal immigrants who broke our laws. Governor Ron DeSantis says it protects Floridians from criminal aliens.
The center was built in just eight days on a former airstrip deep in the swamps. It holds 3,000 detainees with strong security features. There are hundreds of cameras and miles of barbed wire keeping our communities safe.
Attorney General James Uthmeier called it “the best chance to deport criminal illegals.” He said the next stop for these detainees is back to their home countries. Florida won’t be a sanctuary for lawbreakers.
Liberal media outlets are attacking this necessary facility. They cry about “inhumane conditions” but ignore the real victims: American citizens hurt by illegal immigration. Their fake outrage shows they care more about criminals than our safety.
Alligator Alcatraz holds people arrested under the 287(g) program. This federal partnership lets police detain illegals for deportation. These aren’t innocent families—they’re criminals who violated our borders.
Florida’s leaders understand what liberals don’t: open borders bring crime and chaos. While blue cities collapse under migrant waves, we’re protecting our state. DeSantis put Americans first with this solution.
The facility cost taxpayers nothing extra because Florida runs a surplus. Our state budget remains strong while locking up criminal aliens. This fiscal responsibility contrasts with Democrat-run states drowning in debt.
Americans support Governor DeSantis’ tough stance. Alligator Alcatraz shows real leadership on border security. Florida proves that safety and common sense can still win.
