Drudge Retort: The Other Side of the News
Wednesday, July 02, 2025

President Donald Trump visited the new migrant detention center in the Florida Everglades dubbed "Alligator Alcatraz" and "Gator Gitmo." Video revealed rows upon rows of empty industrial metal bunk beds enclosed in hastily constructed cages made up of chain fences. "[President] Biden wanted me in here, that son of a b"h," Trump said jokingly. "I looked outside, and that's not a place I want to go hiking anytime soon," Trump told reporters after his tour. "We're surrounded by miles of treacherous swampland, and the only way out is really deportation." The complex, located at the Dade Collier Training and Transition Airport, will cost an estimated $450 million a year to operate, and the first victims are set to arrive this week. Alligators, crocodiles, pythons, and a host of pathogen-carrying mosquitos infest the swamps.

Some of the cost of "Alligator Alcatraz," which Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis said was built in just eight days, will be reimbursed from FEMA's Shelter and Services Program. The jungle gulag utilizes at least 200 security cameras, 28,000 feet of barbed wire, and will be staffed with more than 400 security personnel. This is a perfect example of man's inhumanity to man on display, as well as corporate greed. Contractors will be making obscene profits and hiring insiders to man the gulag while feeding these prisoners gruel. There is no limit to the Trumpf junta's cruelty, viciousness, or venality as this multi-million dollar torture chamber, all paid for by the hardworking American taxpayer, reveals.

I can't fathom how anyone with an grain of decency would think that rounding up people and sending them off to countries they've never been to, locking them away in prisons, no trial, is in any way acceptable or ok. It is horrendous. It isn't any different than what Pinochet, or Noriega, or the Argentine "dirty war" junta did.

I am ashamed of what is being done by this morally depraved orange -------- is doing in the name of the United States,

Yav,

This country is littered with detention facilities for illegal aliens. I understand the concern you articulated regarding keeping the Everglades as pristine as possible. Setting that aside, how is this any worse than the other detention facilities scattered throughout the country?

It's being reported that the religious clerics in Iran have issued a Fatwa on Trump. That usually amounts to an assassination . . . for disrespecting the Ayatollah.

If so, that's serious business considering how wide spread their operatives are reported to be, even here in the U.S.

Jus' saying.

I called this place a Concentration Camp.

But, looking at the pictures, I'm not convinced the prisoners will benefit from climate control.

And if not, people imprisoned here will die from heat exhaustion, on purpose, which makes it a Death Camp.

Republicans will say they deserve it, they brought it on themselves.

Trump waddling around in his saggy baggies, sweating like a pig, makeup smeared, silly beanie pulled down over his head to hide the hair/scalp disaster, yammering nonsensical answers to simple questions ...

What an effin wreck.

I really wonder about why the stupid hat all the time now. An oversize red ball hat with a blue suit? Quite the fashion statement.

Does he wear them just to sell more merch, or has his "stylist" just given up?

Yav is worried about the Everglades? LOL If he's so concerned about the Everglades why doesn't he move out of Florida? Its not the "prison" destroying the Everglades its the number of people living there.

There Was No Mention of 853 Migrant Deaths in 2022 in Biden's State of the Union

@#27 ... There Was No Mention of 853 Migrant Deaths in 2022 in Biden's State of the Union ...

Why would that be mentioned in a State of the Union address?

But more from the 2023 article your current alias cites ...

... We need the wholesale immigration reform we were promised and a president that understands that asylum is immutable.

On February 7, President Joe Biden gave his second State of the Union address. A DREAMer was the first lady's date for the evening, but the humanitarian crisis at our borders barely registered as a blip in the 73-minute speech.

That's not by accident. There's no reason that cautious White House staff would encourage the president to highlight the 853 people who died trying to reach our country by crossing the U.S.-Mexico border last year. Why draw attention to the mass deaths suffered by thousands seeking safety? In the president's moment of glory, better not to acknowledge the administration's inhumane, illegal approach to the asylum process.

President Biden's immigration platform is window dressing designed to try to hide the needless suffering his policies are inflicting on desperate people who are being denied critical protections. ...

... I could go on...


But back to your current alias' #27 comment ...

... We need the wholesale immigration reform ...

Pres Biden worked to pass an immigration bill, but then candidate Trump told his cult not to allow the pasage of the bill because he (Trump) wanted to keep immigration as a campaign issue.


So, if I may ask, does Pres Trump really want to resolve the immigration problem, or is he just using it to foster his other goals, e.g., military stationed in cities?


I agree 100%.

So, what's your current alias' solution?

Born and raised here, friends go back generations. This site's development was shut down in the 70's because of the impact to the environment. ~5,000 people expected to be there, sewage, lights, etc. And you think I should move to "fix" things.

You can't hear how stupid you sound, can you?
