President Trump has announced his intention to rebuild and reopen Alcatraz Federal Penitentiary to accommodate the US's most violent offenders. This proposal, shared on his Truth Social account, aims to reshape the incarceration system amidst tensions with the judiciary regarding due process for deportation of alleged criminals. Trump's remarks come alongside controversial ideas about sending US citizens convicted of crimes to foreign prisons. Alcatraz, known for its security, symbolizes Trump's approach to restoring order in immigration and criminal justice issues, despite challenges to constitutional rights.
"Trump wrote he is directing the Bureau of Prisons... to reopen a substantially enlarged and rebuilt ALCATRAZ to house the US's most ruthless and violent Offenders."
"It's a symbol of law and order," he said, emphasizing that reopening Alcatraz is part of addressing frustrations with the judiciary and due process concerns.
