BREAKING: Trump Visits ‘Alligator Alcatraz’ | Inside Florida's Detention Center Circled By Predators

President Trump will attend the opening of a controversial migrant detention center deep in the Florida Everglades, nicknamed “Alligator Alcatraz” for its remote, wildlife-infested location. Built rapidly using Governor DeSantis' emergency powers, the facility can hold up to 5,000 migrants and is located on the grounds of a long-abandoned 1960s jetport. Despite recent political friction, Trump and DeSantis will appear together at the launch. Critics are alarmed over the harsh conditions and secrecy surrounding the project, which has already sparked a wave of protests and national debate. #Trump #DeSantis #AlligatorAlcatraz #MigrantCenter #FloridaPolitics #ImmigrationPolicy #FEMA #Everglades #DetentionCenter #BorderCrisis #SwampFacility #JetportHistory #DadeCollier #MigrantRights #USImmigration #ControversialFacility #PoliticalReunion #FloridaNews #RemotePrison #Protests Also Read 'Close Up Shop And Move Back To South Africa': US President Donald Trump's Deportation Warning To Elon Musk :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/close-up-shop-and-move-back-to-south-africa-us-president-donald-trumps-deportation-warning-to-el-7788061.html?ref=DMDesc Top Iranian Cleric Declares Fatwa Against Donald Trump, Netanyahu :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/top-iranian-cleric-declares-fatwa-against-donald-trump-netanyahu-7786905.html?ref=DMDesc Trump Intends To Resolve North Korea Conflict Amid Reports Of Rejected Letter :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-intends-to-resolve-north-korea-conflict-amid-reports-of-rejected-letter-7785511.html?ref=DMDesc ~ED.420~GR.125~HT.96~

Bernie Sanders RIPS Trump’s ‘Big Beautiful Bill’ As Billionaire Payoff | 16M Thrown Off Healthcare?

Sen. Bernie Sanders strongly opposes President Trump’s so-called “Big, Beautiful Bill,” calling it the most dangerous legislation in modern U.S. history. Sanders claims the bill is a billionaire-funded payoff that gives $975 billion in tax breaks to the top 1%, while slashing $1.1 trillion from healthcare programs like Medicaid and ACA—potentially leaving 16 million uninsured. With studies predicting 50,000 avoidable deaths per year, Sanders calls the bill a "death sentence" for working-class Americans and a devastating blow to rural hospitals already on the brink. #BernieSanders #TrumpBill #BillionaireBill #MedicaidCuts #AffordableCareAct #HealthcareCrisis #SenateFloor #TaxBreaks #TrumpTaxPlan #BillionaireClass #WorkingClass #RuralHospitals #HealthcareForAll #SandersSpeech #TrumpVsSanders #MedicareCuts #HealthcareJustice #TrumpAgenda #PoliticalCorruption #BigPharma #CampaignFinance #UnfairEconomy #TaxPolicy #GOPBill #CBOReport #PublicHealth #HealthcareInequality #TrumpHealthcarePlan #SandersFightsBack #TrumpDeathBill #HealthJusticeNow Also Read 'Close Up Shop And Move Back To South Africa': US President Donald Trump's Deportation Warning To Elon Musk :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/close-up-shop-and-move-back-to-south-africa-us-president-donald-trumps-deportation-warning-to-el-7788061.html?ref=DMDesc Top Iranian Cleric Declares Fatwa Against Donald Trump, Netanyahu :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/top-iranian-cleric-declares-fatwa-against-donald-trump-netanyahu-7786905.html?ref=DMDesc Trump Intends To Resolve North Korea Conflict Amid Reports Of Rejected Letter :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-intends-to-resolve-north-korea-conflict-amid-reports-of-rejected-letter-7785511.html?ref=DMDesc

Pass the Bill. PASS THE BILL!’ VP Vance’s DESPERATE Plea to pass the ‘BBB’ as VOTE-E-RAMA Continues

Vice President JD Vance makes a desperate push to pass Trump’s “Big Beautiful Bill” as a brutal Senate vote-a-rama drags on. With time ticking toward Trump’s July 4th deadline, Vance warns of rising taxes and weakened immigration enforcement if the bill fails. Democrats slam cuts to Medicaid and food stamps, while Republicans haggle over final changes.
