“We have 30,000 beds in Guantanamo to detain the worst criminal aliens threatening the American people,” the president said.
The White House announced a short time later that Trump had signed a presidential memorandum on Guantanamo. Migrant rights groups quickly expressed dismay.
The Guantanamo facility could hold “dangerous criminals” and people who are “hard to deport,” said a Trump administration official speaking on condition of anonymity because they weren’t authorized to speak publicly on the matter.
Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth said his department can set up a detention center “very rapidly” and called Guantanamo Bay “a perfect spot.”
