BREAKING: Trump Will Sign Executive Order to Send Illegal Aliens to Guantanamo Bay Facility That Can Hold 30,000 (VIDEO)
January 29, 2025

President Donald Trump has announced that he is going to sign an executive order for the Department of Defense and Homeland Security to send illegal aliens to a detention center in Guantanamo Bay.

The facility will be able to hold up to 30,000 people who are in the United States illegally.

Trump said that the detention center will be used to house the “worst of the worst.”

“We have 30,000 beds in Guantanamo to detain the worst criminal illegal aliens threatening the American people,” Trump said.

The president continued, “Some of them are so bad we don’t even trust the countries to hold them because we don’t want them coming back; so, we’re going to send them out to Guantanamo.”

Trump explained that the order will take us “one step closer to eradicating the scourge of migrant crime in our communities once and for all.”

Trump announced the bill just before he signed the Laken Riley Act into law.

The Trump administration has issued a quota of 1,800 arrests per day by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) nationwide.

According to a report from the New York Post, the agency’s 25 offices must make at least 75 arrests each day to meet the quota.

Trump Admin Gives ICE an Arrest Quota of 1,800 Illegal Aliens Per Day Nationwide

Since President Trump took office less than 10 days ago, ICE has made approximately 4,500 arrests.

Speaking to CNN on Tuesday, White House deputy chief of staff Stephen Miller explained that the quota is a "floor, not a ceiling."

“So first of all, the numbers you cited are a floor, not a ceiling. Very importantly, they’re a floor. The goal is to arrest at least that many, but hopefully many more,” Miller said.

The Washington Post reports:

An ICE official who was not authorized to discuss the quota said the agency’s list of criminal suspects was sufficiently long, so officers would be able to continue prioritizing public safety and national security threats to meet quotas.

Last year, ICE told lawmakers there were about 670,000 immigrants on its caseload who had criminal convictions or faced criminal charges. Some are serving sentences in jails and prisons.

Appearing on ABC’s "This Week," border czar Tom Homan said the number of deportations will steadily increase.

"The aperture right now is constrained to public safety threats, national security threats as a smaller population," Homan said. "We're going to do the same priority base as President Trump's promise. But as that aperture opens, there'll be more arrests nationwide."
