President Donald Trump said Sunday he will direct several federal agencies to "reopen a substantially enlarged and rebuilt Alcatraz," a facility that for decades was a federal prison and is now a national park. www.nbcnews.com/politics/tru...

I blame Trump for waste and fraud… this is a prime example of the waste of taxpayer dollars. This is to detain immigrants or who are paying taxes? The incompetence is astounding.

* The religious right is responsibly at fault for president grifter’s deconstruction of social safety nets & rule of law because of their obsession with abortion & LGBTQ to reassure themselves of a dead letter literal interpretation of the Bible Christian Nation. *

I'm surprised Trump didn't say, "California will pay for it." 🙄

Well it was closed in the ‘60s due to the overwhelming operational costs. It’s practically in ruins due to neglect and salt water erosion, would probably take a billion dollars to reconstruct. DOGE will surely approve. Lol

Imagine the costs to make it habitable. The money this administration is hemorrhaging or just wasting is horrifying. Republicans can never say they want to cut spending. They bleed money everytime they have a majority. Every single time.

Alcatraz will cost billions and take many, many years with regulations and then rebuilding the island. Just contract Elon to build a "Space Jail" operated by the "Space Police" managed by "Space Force" ruled by the "Space President" I'm a bit nervous. WHAT IS HE TRYING TO DISTACT US FROM NOW???

Right?!? Super efficient!!! He's probably got some new potable water delivery system he's about to unveil that'll blow all our minds and make it feasible that he's been working on in the bathroom.

What a little Caligula we have! To dream of a proper prison, fit for dictatorship! Where to put all his opposition. Ah, a place glamorous prison, suitable for movies. And where is the allocated money for that Little Caligula who dreams of also being Pope? From my movie Tariffs!

Alcatraz is a very profitable tourist attraction. Why use that? This is just more reality tv attention seeking bs.

Only Trump would take a prison that is already expensive to construct, pick a location where it becomes even more expensive and logistically challenging to build and operate, while simultaneously taking away a revenue stream of $60 million for the government. F’n stupidity.
