@nbcsouthflorida: Some immigrants detained at Florida’s now-shuttered “Alligator Alcatraz” were confined in outdoor cages only slightly larger than telephone booths for more than an hour at a time, according to a new report by the Department of Homeland Security’s inspector general. The watchdog report marks the first time a government agency has confirmed the existence of the cramped cages at the South Florida Detention Facility. Amnesty International found in a report published in December, based on interviews with detainees and a tour of the facility, that the cages were used to punish detainees and amounted to torture, sparking a congressional probe. The inspector general’s findings don’t go as far, but the report says “the use of such restrictive spaces is highly unconventional and does not align with standards for humane treatment.” The DHS watchdog findings are a rare instance when a federal inspector general has publicly criticized the Trump administration. Since he returned to office in 2025, President Donald Trump has fired at least 18 inspectors general, who operate within federal agencies but are tasked with conducting objective audits and investigating allegations of waste, fraud and abuse of power. #alligatoralcatraz #florida #dhs #miami

What’s wrong with these comments????? These people are STILL humans, legal or not. People supporting this probably want black people back in zoos. MAGA cult is ugly.

It's okay get arrested and they leave you in a chair can't move for up to 23 hours with no drinks and mystery meat with bread, no pain medication no nothing no care in the world for you and we're innocent to proving guilty. They're really guilty.
