„Dies ist ein Internierungslager“: Gesetzgeber, die von unmenschlichen Bedingungen in „Alligator Alcatraz“ entsetzt sind „Ich habe 32 Menschen pro Käfig gesehen – etwa 6 Käfige in einem Zelt. Die Leute schrien, ‚Hilf mir, hilf mir'“, sagte der Abgeordnete von Florida, Maxwell Frost.

Did he see any ovens?
Jerod Moskowitz was wrong when he said, „It is definitely not a concentration camp.“ People need to stop thinking of the German death camps as the meaning of „concentration camp.“ So-called ‚Alligator Alcatraz‘ definitely IS one..
Per *Britannica,* „**concentration camp**, an [internment](https://www.britannica.com/dictionary/internment) center for [political prisoners](https://www.britannica.com/topic/political-prisoner) and members of national or minority groups who are confined for reasons of state security, exploitation, or [punishment](https://www.britannica.com/topic/punishment), usually by executive decree or [military](https://www.britannica.com/topic/armed-force) order. **Persons are placed in such camps often on the basis of identification with a particular ethnic or political group rather than as individuals and without benefit either of indictment or fair** [**trial**](https://www.britannica.com/topic/trial-law)**.** Concentration camps are to be distinguished from [prisons](https://www.britannica.com/topic/prison) interning persons lawfully convicted of civil crimes>“
desantis turning the everglades into a heatstroke death camp like it’s a dystopian disneyworld is so on brand. 32 ppl per cage?? in florida summer heat?? screaming for help?? and they’re out here calling it “secure” like they didn’t just rebrand internment as immigration policy. this country is absolutely sick.
history is repeating itself rn we need more than just political change.
Just like the Nazi path…
This is truly bad. Can’t anyone stop this legally? Or, physically? It is crimes against humanity.
It’s incredible how quick we became a true third-world country.
It’s a concentration camp. The cruelty is the point.
Congrats republicans, this sounds like a big win for you
It’s a concentration camp and nobody should call it by then frame they are giving it (AA) call it a concentration camp…. Do it every time.
Trump is in the Epstein papers, heavily involved, and is panicking. Alligator Auschwitz is just another ghoulish distraction while a child rapist sits in the Oval.
As a hispanic person you need to be absolutely demented to want to live in the USA
Why is it so hard to lock them up but to do it humanely? We can’t have prisoners say “help me, help me, help me.” We need conditions such that prisoners say “welcome stranger! come in, join me for checkers, want a drink?”
Help them. Can Congress get the marshals out or something to free them? TRO
Absolutely disgusting and an unforgivable crime the US should be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.
Jesus Fucking H Christ, the depths we have plunged to.
I’ll never feel patriotic again
A concentration camp purposely built on a floodplain to house people in inhumane conditions that has already been flooded from rain right as hurricane season picks up, that is named after a joke about alligators eating immigrants alive.
But all of these fuckheads put on cross necklaces like it’s part of their uniform. If there’s a Jesus he may forgive some sins but he ain’t forgiving you – he hates you.
Donald Trump is covering up for his best friend, Jeffrey Epstein. He wants us all to stop talking about it , and sharing the pictures of them together.
Any MAGA defending Trump on this absolutely supports Jeffrey Epstein.
It’s appalling to me how much of the maga base is still defending this. They’ve actually been led to believe that IMMIGRATION is somehow the worst crisis in the United States. It is quite literally the most obvious scapegoat to redirect people’s attention from the fact that the American lower class is OPPRESSED. THIS IS THE ONLY DEVELOPED NATION WITH NO FORM OF UNIVERSAL PUBLIC HEALTH INSURANCE OR SINGLE PAYER HEALTHCARE SYSTEM. Why Why Why are we spending 45 billion on ICE?? Why are we granting hundreds of billions of dollars in tax cuts to billionaires while the homelessness crisis is soaring? A FRACTION of that money could be used to house the homeless in this country. Let me make it very clear, THIS COUNTRY DOES NOT CARE ABOUT THE PEOPLE LIVING HERE. No nation with this amount of wealth needs to treat people this way. I’m sick and tired of this bullshit. We all need to realize this and spread the message.

How in the hell do regular people justify working for something like this?
Oh interesting, the ovens don’t need power.. they’re just powered by climate change..
This isn’t about keeping the border safe. It’s just cruelty, plain and simple.
Cages, heat, no medicine, people yelling for help. And they’re giving tours of the clean, empty areas like that makes it better? Some of the people locked up haven’t even been charged with anything. One guy said he’s a U.S. citizen.
We spent 450 million bucks to make it look like we’re being tough. But honestly, that’s not strength. It’s a cowardly attempt at justice.
We’ve got to stop acting like this is okay. It’s not.
Maxwell Frost is right. He’s the future of sane politics. Someone who takes his oath to heart!
If we allow this to continue we are the evil people
Mobilize the state guard and take it by force.
Everything being done there is illegal under state and federal law.
They are within their right to raid it.
Obligatory Reminder; Trump enjoys raping people’s 13 year old daughters…
Usa – ICE now has a budget larger than Israel’s entire Military budget ! This is utterly Ridiculous… what Israel has been doing to Palestine. Trump plans on doing the same thing to usa citizens. This is so wrong on so many levels. Am 64yrs widowmaker heart attack survivor, never had a test such as this test to turn towards Love or Hate. Very simple choice currently. God wanted it to be easy for people to choose. Darkness or Light ?
Germans pretended not to know about the concentration camps they lived next to… If you’re reading this, if you’re American, and if you’re not doing everything you can to stop this, you are the problem too.
I think we are going to be the battleground for WW3
