Heads up about the felon's mass detention center in the Everglades of Florida.

Florida Builds ‘Alligator Alcatraz’ Detention Center for Migrants in Everglades --
Immigrant advocates said the move creates a whole new form of detention outside the scope of the federal government.


Florida is building a detention facility for migrants nicknamed “Alligator Alcatraz,” turning an airfield in the Everglades into the newest — and scariest-sounding — holding center designed to help the Trump administration carry out its immigration crackdown.

The remote facility, composed of large tents, and other planned facilities will cost the state around $450 million a year to run, but Florida can request some reimbursement from the Federal Emergency Management Agency, said Tricia McLaughlin, a spokeswoman for the Department of Homeland Security.

Florida’s attorney general, James Uthmeier, a Trump ally who has pushed to build the detention center in the Everglades, has said the state will not need to invest much in security because the area is surrounded by dangerous wildlife, including alligators and pythons. A spokesperson for the attorney general said work on the new facility started on Monday morning...

“I’m proud to help support President Trump and Secretary Noem in their mission to fix our illegal immigration problem once and for all,” Mr. Uthmeier said in a statement. “Alligator Alcatraz and other Florida facilities will do just that.”....




Just insert kill for fix in AG Uthmeier's statement:
“I’m proud to help support President Trump and Secretary Noem in their mission to fix our illegal immigration problem once and for all,” Mr. Uthmeier said in a statement. “Alligator Alcatraz and other Florida facilities will do just that.”


Trump will attack blue states with ICE (though 30+ ICE raids have been conducted in Florida), dump the kidnapped in red state Death Camps. Aspiring SCOTUS nominee, Cannon, will likely take care of the felon.

The Final Solution is to detain immigrants in Death Camps and let SCOTUS have the last word.

They'll passively let climate catastrophes like floods or hurricanes handle the rest and call them "acts of God."

put FEMA money into what she'd intended to do in the first place -- let "deportees" die a slow death -- it'll just take her and her boss longer.

You need to remember that as humans, they also think they're doing good, because they know not what they do, following someone for all the wrong reasons their consciences can't even deal with.

Because when the "tables are turned" there will be a lot of dead humans the Homeland people, the felon, and SCOTUS will have to account for under the constitutional basic rule of habeas corpus and due process.
At this scale of lawlessness and death, there will have to be tribunals.

None of this will end well, and is dragging the soul of America into darkness.

We just have to remember the scale of what's happening in the 3rd largest country on the planet.
While lawless leaders can be adjudicated in countries only as big as most of our states, it's possible and real that the bad guys get it in the end, and so we've believed that narrative in the West. But at this country's scale(?), revenge poisons personal and community order, and so law and order. We've seen the disorder in the ideological bias of local law enforcement, for one thing, and not just in this whole of the felon's govt. We see the disorder in the compromising by legal firms, biases in investigation priorities of the FBI and DO(in)J, and in the secret biases revealed by SCOTUS justices and some district judges, all of which is seen in the collective wisdom of most of the U.S. judiciary as lawlessness allowed free rein. The problem of rule of law is now realized by all judges/justices as judicial enforcement. Therefore constitutional law enforcement.

Congress can't enforce its laws in place of the judiciary, either, since it has no power of search/arrest warrants, subpoenas, trials (Senate impeachment trial excepted), etc. And -- get this -- only 40% of Congress have law degrees, anyway!

Given how these Heritage 2025 systems have no precedent (excepting a couple of areas), without another younger Biden-like president, I don't see how the bad guys will get it in the end. I hope (the Marc Elias Group gives me hope) But so far I don't see it overall.

In the millions of Americans who form 'the resistance," my hope is that we see leaders emerge who can starkly run on the real stakes for the country, and that liberal oligarchs and Democrats will fully fund and support them.

Watch the horror of what happens when even a few smell flesh around that Death Camp.

The felon's death camps are the sites of America's Nazi driven slow roll holocaust.

The next question is, what can Florida Indivisibles, activists and lawyers do about it.
