#Florida to Close #AlligatorAlcatraz, News Report Says
https://insideclimatenews.org/news/13052026/florida-everglades-migrant-detention-facility-to-close/Officials at the Everglades migrant detention facility told vendors this week the site would close as soon as early June. Conservation groups say they will continue their litigation over environmental concerns at the site, which is in a delicate region of the river of grass.

We just won a victory: The NY times quotes Betty Osceola of the Mikosukkee Nation as reporting that vendors at Alligator Auschwitz have been told all detainees will be out by early June. The site is to return to being a training airport.
In other words, Alligator Auschwitz is CLOSING, all hostages will be tranferred to other concentration camps, but they won't have this one any more. AA was often used as punishment to force hostages to drop asylum claims and will no longer be available for that purpose.
Wondering if the mosquitoes were too much even for the guards? This would explain the June closure schedule.
Maybe the tribe's lawsuits played a role in closing this hellhole?
Alternately, maybe ICE has decided the mega-warehouses are what they want to focus on. Is the fact that DeSantis is term limited out on Jan 20 2027 the reason?

"Douglas Dixon knew about Alligator Alcatraz, the infamous immigration detention centre in Florida operated by ICE. But never in his wildest imagination did he think he'd end up there in shackles.
Now back in his native Montreal after 21 years in the United States following his deportation, Dixon shared his harrowing story."

Looks like it’s not closed. Be careful when traveling to Florida, or touring the Everglades. People are still there, in filthy conditions and Feds have yet to pay Florida.

@kbindependent "In his veto message, Trump was critical of the tribe, saying, 'The #MiccosukeeTribe has actively sought to obstruct reasonable immigration policies that the American people decisively voted for when I was elected.'
"The other bill was designed to help local communities finance the construction of a pipeline to provide water to tens of thousands in Colorado.
"The White House did not issue any veto threats prior to passage of the bills, so Trump’s scathing comments in his veto message came as a surprise to sponsors of the legislation. Ultimately, his vetoes had the effect of punishing backers who had opposed the president’s positions on other issues.
"The water pipeline bill came from Republican Rep. #LaurenBoebert of Colorado, a longtime Trump ally who broke with the president in November to release files on convicted sex offender #JeffreyEpstein."

#Trump vetoes #Miccosukee #flood protection, citing tribe’s opposition to ‘#AlligatorAlcatraz’
https://floridaphoenix.com/2025/12/31/trump-vetoes-miccosukee-flood-protection-citing-tribes-opposition-to-alligator-alcatraz/The Miccosukee Tribe’s lawsuit contesting an #immigration detention facility in the Everglades cost them federally funded flood protection, at least if President Donald Trump gets his way. President Donald Trump on Tuesday vetoed HR 504, federal legislation intended to provide flood protection to Osceola Camp, a Miccosukee residential area in the Everglades. In his veto letter, the president blamed the tribe for having “actively sought to obstruct reasonable immigration policies that the American people decisively voted for when I was elected.”

CW: Torture by FL and ICE confirmed by Amnesty
Amnesty International reports TORTURE BOX used at Alligator Auschwitz.
Apparently Alligator Auschwitz is really earning the name. Four different men have reported to Amnesty that a 2 foot by 2 foot cage outside in the weather AND THE MOSQUITOES is being used to torture detainees for trifles. Detainees are shackled so they cannot sit or change positions, and exposed to the sun, rain, and dense clouds of mosquitoes.
At least one detainee was subjected to this torture for an entire day. If a malaria outbreak begins in all of Florida, Alligator Auschwitz may be the starting point of it.

New Report Exposes Torture, Abuse, and Medical Neglect in Florida Migrant Jails
Two immigration detention centers in Florida have gained notoriety for inhumane conditions since Republican Gov. Ron DeSantis, in close alignment with President Donald Trump’s anti-immigrant agenda, has rapidly scaled up mass detention in the state, and a report released Thursday detailed how human rights violations at the two facilities amount to torture in some cases.
