Florida’s Concentration Camp Is Already Flooding

The Daily Beast reports:

Florida’s much-hyped ICE detention center cannot even keep the rain out. Videos from the so-called Alligator Alcatraz, which President Donald Trump visited on Tuesday to mark its opening, show that the center had standing water on its first day of operation.

Florida officials claim the facility, situated in the middle of the muggy, naturally flooded Everglades, is sturdy enough to withstand winds of a Category 2 hurricane, despite its exterior being a tent.

Those claims are sure to be scrutinized after a local news reporter, Jason Delgado of Spectrum News 13, captured footage of water seeping into the tent, onto electrical cables, and around flagpoles.

Read the full article. The flooding seen in the videos below is in the “fancier” tent where DeSantis hosted Trump and ICE Barbie. It doesn’t appear that the press was taken into the other tents.

A good lil storm passed over us here at ‘Alligator Alcatraz.’

Here’s what it looks & sounds like inside one of these tents.

The state says the sites here are rated to withstand a category two hurricane (~120mph winds). pic.twitter.com/6SyY1hAvkK
