Thank you Jack for keeping us Patriots updated on the latest border news. Sorry about the judge decision to close Aligator Alcatraz. The biggest complaint is from the Misasuaki (sp) Indigenous people, because it borders on their community. That’s great news about the illegal drug trafficking. I am so proud of our drug CBP for the work for our country

Do you know how many migrants were removed from the Florida ‘gator’ facility? TY

The population was once around 700 but has been reduced by half, with specific numbers changing rapidly as the facility is emptied. Thanks for reading US Border News!

Crazyness in the judges quarters

The judge found that the state bypassed environmental regulations in its haste to build the facility. (I have added a link to the judge's order within the newsletter if you'd like to learn more). The state says it plans to appeal, presumably so it could be reopened, but is complying with the order to remove the prisoners housed there. Thanks for reading US Border News & taking time to comment!

Great, after we had the family vacation all planned and paid for. I guess we're going to Wally World instead. Hey kids! Put that fire out in the attic right now, and start loading up the Country Squire!

Ha! Based on what we know about conditions there, I am not sure your family would have enjoyed the "accommodations" anyway. Thanks for making me laugh.

Just as good as any other penal facility if youve seen one
