Shortly before signing the Laken Riley Act into law on Wednesday, President Donald Trump announced an upcoming executive order that would instruct the DoD and DHS to prepare Guantanamo Bay to hold 30,000 of the “worst criminal illegal aliens.”
“Today, I’m also signing an executive order to instruct the Departments of Defense and Homeland Security to begin preparing the 30,000-person migrant facility at Guantanamo Bay,” Trump said while signing the anti-illegal immigration Laken Riley Act.
“Most people don’t even know that we have 30,000 beds in Guantanamo to detain the worst criminal illegal aliens threatening the American people.”
Trump added that “some of them are so bad, we don’t even trust the countries to hold them, because we don’t want them coming back.”
“So we’re going to send them out to Guantanamo,” he said.
“This will double our capacity immediately, right? And tough. It’s a tough, it’s a tough place to get out of.”
