The immigration detention center in Florida's Everglades will soon be empty. State officials expect the facility to have no detainees "within a few days."

Ron DeSantis is a bootlicker extraordinaire: Not even successful in the sycophant's role he's chosen to play. When you can't even garnish respect from your orange king, you are a loser on all counts. 3 of 9 contractors who built Alligator Alcatraz (i.e., concentration camp) gave money to DeSantis

They'll either be deported right away, or moved somewhere else. These concentration camps will continue as long as the First Felon is in the White House.

I’m sure there is a large ass sum of money that DoucheSantis is collecting for his own personal gain out of this. There is no way a criminal fucking republican isn’t going to profit from his failure. Him and his dingbat wife should be holed up in there.
