      Leave it to DeSantis to screw things up. Next, they will furnish a lifeboat for the „detainees“ to sleep on.

      probably by design. in fact they probably have a viewing box somewhere for president fuckface and friends.

      It’s bad enough this is even being built, it’s even worse that this will be seen as an opportunity to make living quarters worse.

      Isn’t it supposed to flood? I mean, the whole point of building Alligator Auschwitz in the middle of the Everglades is to be cruel.

      And please, stop calling it Alligator Alcatraz. Alcatraz was a prison designed for criminals. Alligator Auschwitz is a concentration camp holding one group of people. Hence Concentration of Latino’s.

      This is part of the plan. Hurricane comes through, blows over all the tents. Everyone in the cages die, alligators eat the corpses, now you’re free to setup more beds in the cages and put more „migrants“ in.

      Where’s the kitchens? With that amount of people living there there’s got to be a place on site to prepare food.

      Alligator Alcatraz sounds like another grift.

      Pay attention to what matters most.

      Focus on who is being hired to construct it and put it together. Follow the money.

      EDIT: And the grift begins. One of the key players is a Texas-based company that appears to be well-connected to GOP operatives:

      >IRG Global, a company formed in February as an offshoot of ARS Global Emergency Management, received a $19.6 million contract from Florida in mid-June to fly a plane load of refugees from Israel to Tampa, public records show. IRG Global also has, so far, accepted a $1.1 million contract for support in setting up the new detention center, a contract with the state said.

      >IRG Global officials could not be reached for comment. **The company’s website shows it has no expertise in designing prisons or detainment facilities. It is a company geared toward disaster response.**

      >[https://www.gulfshorebusiness.com/alligator-alcatraz-taxpayer-funding/](https://www.gulfshorebusiness.com/alligator-alcatraz-taxpayer-funding/)

      The parent company ARSGEM has a less than stellar history:

      >The continuing saga of the Houston-based plaintiffs’ law firm of McClenny Moseley & Associates, suspended and sanctioned for flooding courts with erroneous lawsuits against property insurers in Louisiana, has taken a new political twist in recent days. It also has highlighted an unexpected result of the 2022 law that ended assignments of insurance benefits in Florida.

      >**ARS Global, a 60-year-old restoration and emergency management company** that was once connected to the McClenny law firm, **disputed a report published last week by the Orlando Sentinel newspaper. The article said that ARS has been paid as much as $45 million by the state of Florida after ARS donated more than $99,000 to Gov. Ron DeSantis’ reelection campaign.**

      >The millions of dollars were for some disaster recovery services but also to transport undocumented migrant workers to Democratic-leaning parts of the country, along with evacuation flights for Israelis fleeing the Hamas war, the Sentinel reported. **The article quotes government watchdogs saying the state funding to ARS, despite its link to the McClenny firm and other legal questions, smacks of a “pay to play” scheme.**

      That’s the whole point, build it in a hurrican zone, natural disaster kills everyone, alligators eat the bodies. „Oopsie“

      Even Mother Nature hates this place. Wait until she REALLY gets going with the hurricanes.

    17. AdHopeful3801 on

      Alligator Auschwitz is intended to be an extermination camp. The floods are just cheaper than Zyklon-B.

      Our tax dollars hard at work. It’s so comforting to see these Christian politicians doing the lord’s work, they’re just so prolife, unless you’re alive.

    21. Za_Lords_Guard on

      You would think a real estate mogul and all around stable genius would have considered that when you set up a facility in a swamp in a hurricane prone area that flooding is likely.

      But then this is the same stable genius that repealed laws about doing studies into flood plains and the like before issuing building permits.

      He’s special like that.

      Thank god it’s already getting FEMA funding. That was some good planning right there.

    23. sgettios737 on

      They said it was daft to build a castle in the swamp. But I built it anyway, just to show em!

      It sank into the swamp.

      So I built another one. That burned down, fell over, and then sank into the swamp. But the third one stayed up!

      And contractors lined their pockets every time…I really wish this were a farce

    24. TwoPercentTokes on

      Not that I agree with the reasoning even slightly, but it’s one thing to claim/believe that illegal migrants are endangering people and livelihoods, while it’s another level of perverse to wear a “Make America Great Again” hat to gleefully tour a facility for incarcerating migrants. The shit some Americans cheer for really is dumbfounding

    25. CriticalEngineering on

      The people sent to Alcatraz had trials and due process.

      This is no Alcatraz.

    26. azaRaza3185 on

      Who got the contract to build this floating piece of shit? Like everything else related to trump, this has fraud and cronyism slathered all over it

    27. JuliusErrrrrring on

      So we are using taxpayer $ to pay people to arrest taxpayers then using taxpayer $ to pay for transporting the taxpayers to a place built with taxpayer $ so we can pay guards with taxpayer $ to ensure the taxpayers can’t work and pay taxes and feed them with food bought with taxpayer $ and fly taxpayer funded politicians with taxpayer funded security and taxpayer funded pilots and planes and cars for political propaganda photoshoots? And DOGE couldn’t find any waste?

    28. OtherBluesBrother on

      When I first came here, this was all swamp. Everyone said I was daft to build a prison in a swamp, but I built in all the same, just to show them. It sank into the swamp. So I built a second one. That sank into the swamp. So I built a third. That burned down, fell over, then sank into the swamp. But the fourth one stayed up. And that’s what you’re going to get, Lad, the strongest prison in all of Trumpland.

      Cost: 450M per year to run the facility, 3000 inhabitants -> 150k per inhabitant per year.
