NOW: ICE Director fires back at Democrat critics of āAlligator Alcatrazā ā āThese officials need to realize this isnāt a resort.ā
As Democrat lawmakers rail against ICEās new alien detention center in Florida, dubbed āAlligator Alcatrazā, Acting ICE Director Todd Lyons isnāt backing down.
āI will say, as I've said before, ICE does hold ourselves to higher standards, especially when it comes to immigration detention standards.ā
āRight before we got on I was on a phone call with Secretary Noem and I was assuring her that we spoke to officials on the ground in Florida just this morning, about an hour ago, that everything is in the condition that we want.ā
āI've been down there myself and I personally went down there twice to tour it while they were building it.ā
Then he delivered the reminder critics didnāt want to hear:
āI think one thing that a lot of these officials need to realize this isn't a resort in Florida.ā
āPeople aren't coming to that location for a long-term stay. They are there to just be housed so they can be removed from the country quickly.ā
