Donald Trump: Waist. Fraud. Abuser.

Utter nonsense driven, as is often the case, by Trump's obsession with show business becoming his real life.

He wants to turn it into a Trump hotel/casino

Waste, fraud & abuse. Waste of tax dollars, fraud in awarding of renovation contracts, followed by abuse of migrants potentially "disppeared" there.

Once the prisons are in place they will begin the domestic crackdown. Are you prepared for you or your family to be a prisoner of Donald J Trump ?

BS story. Don’t you get it? It’s theater.

Follow the money… some prison developers are probably going to soak us

Can’t anyone say NO to Trump?

Not a waste, if we use it for this administration after the convictions.

Symbolic political actions to make the MAGAts happy.

Distraction. Now everyone is talking about it.

Does the State of Cali have any say in this? 🤔 @governor.ca.gov

Isn’t it a museum, of sorts right now? Wouldn’t it need a formal change-of-use etc? If so: block that nonsense! 🙏🏻✌🏻 States Rights, amirite? ✊🏻✌🏻

another waste of money project...if only we had a department of government efficiency office or whatever, i dont know just an idea.

And he thinks the water alone is enough security to prevent escapes, so 8 weeks from now there will be a completed tent prison like the Florida concentration camp.

He’s just doing this because he hates California and Gov. Newsom.

Why does everything these people do seem to revolve around an island?

Diversion.

What a joke.

When he finally ends up throwing Bondi under the bus he's going to go full Caligula and nominate a horse to replace her, I just know he is! This would actually be an upgrade from your traditional MAGAt sycophant.

I'm all for it as long as it permanent housing for the Trump administration.

These people are just pissing away taxpayer $. We are turning our country into a penal colony!

Hopefully whoever is given the task to rehab drags out planning process and they never break ground. Next president and congress can and kill the project. 🤞🏻

This is such a joke to anyone who lives in the Bay Area.

Trump won’t live long enough to see this through. The logistics to actually make this happen are beyond his comprehension. Just more nonsensical ramblings of an old man slipping into dementia.

Do you notice? We are no longer making our decisions based on reason— we are making our decisions based on MAGA world, “alternate reality”, ideology. This can only lead to disaster. 🤷‍♂️🚩

Public policy based on Boomer nostalgia.

Perhaps not... will make superb retirement home for top people🐡🍖 in 47 WH, no? And to speed up ROI; simply put couple of guards in towers; use Coast Guard for routine patrol of shoreline; and supply inmates with 500 tons E-Bizcuits & daily OJ ration – until they give up ghost & meet their maker.😈

and cultural heritage

That's got to be one of the stupidest moves any administration has ever done. Alcatraz is literally falling apart.

My family & I just visited Alcatraz on June 30th, 2025. The place doesn’t even have running water. I can’t imagine anyone being incarcerated here. The birds alone make the island reek of death. I honestly envisioned Trump & his criminal empire rotting in Hell there 😉. Now that would be justice!

The Sec of the Interior needs to speak up. CA and the Feds had no right to this land from jump.

Construction will be boondoggle expensive, then ongoing operating costs ridiculous.

Blast the cost. Then highlight all the policies that hurt the shrinking middle class and the growing lower class, while benefitting the upper class.

that's part of the plan; they don't care if it's in good shape or a place to house people comfortably. a run-down mess suits their purpose just fine

Stephen Miller/Heinrich Himmler's plan ...

My groceries sure were expensive this week. Any news on bringing prices down?

Shiny object tactics.

Wouldn’t it be sublime if he ended up in there….

Keep that ugly, vile & corrupt BITCH out of my state. Bury her under The Rock!

Idiots

Remember that this is ONLY happening because Trump saw a movie the teevee.

True. But think about all of the Trump / shark memes that it will eventually produce.

Alcatraz doesn’t even have a fresh water supply. Water needs to be shipped in And people need to think of it more like “ruins” than an old prison. Because that’s what the salt air and time has done

Never going to happen. A total WASTE of taxpayer money.

So much of what this administration is doing, is costing ungodly amounts of money. And so much of it, is going to take ungodly amounts of money to undo. So where does that leave us, the taxpayers .... forever.

Sure, but the unlikely timeline where it is eventually filled with the fascists who built it is so delicious. Same for alligator Auschwitz.

Trump wants to deny tourist dollars to San Francisco. And I wouldn't be surprised if he installs flood lights directed at the shore, just to harass Californians. He's a vindictive, evil man.

This should be stopped. I don’t want my tax money going towards this.

Corrupt bribe-taking PedoRapist-protecting traitor Bondi said it would be for ‘middle class’ criminals.. for immigrants… not for elite pedophile rapists and murderers like her Fuhrer They’re renovating it for US

And this performance is all because fucking orange shit-for-brains watched The Rock on cable....JFC.

He is trying everything to change the subject. Unfortunately it won’t work this time. Him being a pedophile TRUMPS all.

What about the tourists?

Brilliant turn a huge cash cow into a money pit.
