NEW: DHS's Inspector General releases a scathing report about the Everglades detention camp known as "Alligator Alcatraz." The OIG finds that the now-closed camp, violated multiple ICE standards. The OIG also confirms detainees were punished with placement in a metal cage in the Florida heat.🧵
OFFICE OF INSPECTOR GENERAL
U.S. Department of Homeland Security
Staff also reported that time spent in the small metal enclosures is closely monitored, and
detainees are not locked in, even though we observed locking mechanisms on the enclosures.
Figures 11 and 12. Small Metal Enclosures; Observed January 21, 2026

Underneath is a picture of a metal cage that is 4 feet 3 inches wide by 4 feet 3 inches long, and 7 feet 9 inches high. The cage itself is placed on a tiny spot of fake turf, and then surrounded by another chainlink fence with razor wire on top. The cage is covered by a roof, but it's entirely exposed to the outside otherwise, meaning mosquitos and no air conditioning.

The entire speech is just rambling gibberish. My God.
We have a complete and total. You know, I love the words complete and total. They say, but it means almost the same thing as that it doesn't matter when you say it.

It's called emphasis. It's called emphasis. But everyone is now really warming up the new White House military center, Droneport, highly protected ballroom.

We have our ballroom. The windows are this thick. I said to the people, well, if a bullet hits, what happens?

Nothing, nothing. It bounces right off, sir. This is the greatest bulletproof glass.

I said AK-47. That's supposed to be a big one. I don't know so much about the guns.

My sons know a lot. But I said, hey, I know it's big. What would happen?

They go up, meaning it can take more. I said, so if I'm making a speech and I hear that pinging sound at a window, what would I do, sir? Leave the room right away.

But you're going to be safe. We're building something. It's going to be amazing.

And in light of what we went through, I think people understand that it's going to be amazing. A phenomenal one of the biggest drone ports anywhere in the world right on the roof, right protecting the White House, not only the ballroom and what's underneath. You know, it's supposed to be a top military secret, what's underneath.
