On Tuesday, June 1, President Donald Trump toured the newly-established immigration detention center known as "Alligator Alcatraz" in the Florida Everglades. This 5,000-bed facility, controversial for its surrounding alligator-infested waters, symbolizes the stringent measures of his immigration policies.

Florida’s controversial new immigration detention facility, dubbed “Alligator Alcatraz,” is set to begin holding its first group of detainees, just two days after US President Donald Trump visited the site.

Alligator Alcatraz is not just a moniker designed to sell political merchandise. It is actually the official name of the state-run immigration detention facility that Gov. Ron DeSantis’ administration built to help detain more people caught in President Donald Trump’s immigration sweeps.
