"The population" isn't scared of Trump.
Seeing illegal gang bangers in chains getting off the boat at the alcatraz pier would be heartwarming and great for all the others to see, but I don't think the good optics will be worth the cost and the time that it's going to take. But that opinon is based on nothing as I don't have a clue what a new prison would cost and how long it woudl take to build vs putting the rock back into service.
I didn't say it will but he thinks it will. And as I understand it, it will be for American citizens, not illegals.
The prison closed in the 60s, I believe, because it cost more than 3X the amount of a normal prison to operate.
It currently brings in 60 million a year in tourism and I've seen numbers as high as 375 million to renovate and another 40 million a year to operate, if it were to be re-made into a prison again. And it would only have a capacity for 300 prisoners and couldn't be expanded much at all because it's a very small island. It makes no sense.
Closed in 1963. It was old then. Rough environment to keep things maintained and overall expensive to operate.
I am going back and forth between it being an ego thing, and a "stick to liberal california democratic leadership" thing
You have to admire his transparency and directness. Contrast that with the opaque democratic admins.
BREAKING: HOLY SMOKES!

Thank you God
We all agree this is a good thing right? No way we should be dependent on prescriptions.
This is hilarious. You think everyone is going to agree on a policy change implemented by Trump. The very fact that this is a Trump policy immediately makes it deplorable in every sense of the word for liberals. That’s the state we live in now. Buckle up for, “we don’t have the infrastructure”, “why not let other countries make meds for us, they need jobs too”, “Americans won’t do that type of work”, or my personal favorite “this is a racist, nationalist policy that is plunging us deeper into fascist authoritarianism, it’s important to rely on the global community.”
We are making great progress on “The One, Big, Beautiful Bill.” Our Economy is doing well, but it’s going to BOOM in a way never seen before. We are going to do NO TAX ON TIPS, NO TAX ON SENIORS’ SOCIAL SECURITY, NO TAX ON OVERTIME, and much more. It will be the biggest Tax Cut for Middle and Working Class Americans by far, and it is time for Main Street to WIN. MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!

The agreement with the United Kingdom is a full and comprehensive one that will cement the relationship between the United States and the United Kingdom for many years to come. Because of our long time history and allegiance together, it is a great honor to have the United Kingdom as our FIRST announcement. Many other deals, which are in serious stages of negotiation, to follow!

Aa assistant deputy AG/ pardon attorney should be someone who provides thorough, impartial analysis to support the President’s clemency decisions and other matters, not a slimy, insurrection supporting, ***-kissing rubber stamp.
#BREAKING: President Trump announces a MAJOR trade deal with the United KingdomThis ended up being a HELL of a deal for us!
$6 BILLION in new tariff revenue US tariffs on imports from UK raised to 10% UK tariffs on imports from US lowered to 1.8% $5 BILLION in new exports from the U.S.“The deal includes billions of dollars of increased market access for American exports, especially in agriculture, dramatically increasing access for American beef, ethanol, and virtually all of the products produced by our great farmers.”
Today is an incredible day for America as we deliver our first Fair, Open, and Reciprocal Trade Deal — Something our past Presidents never cared about. Together with our strong Ally, the United Kingdom, we have reached the first, historic Trade Deal since Liberation Day. As part of this Deal, America will raise $6 BILLION DOLLARS in External Revenue from 10% Tariffs, $5 BILLION DOLLARS in new Export Opportunities for our Great Ranchers, Farmers, and Producers, and enhance the National Security of both the U.S. and the UK through the creation of an Aluminum and Steel Trading Zone, and a secure Pharmaceutical Supply Chain. This Deal shows that if you respect America, and bring serious proposals to the table, America is OPEN FOR BUSINESS. Many more to come — STAY TUNED!

I am pleased to announce that Judge Jeanine Pirro will be appointed interim United States Attorney for the District of Columbia. Jeanine was Assistant District Attorney for Westchester County, New York, and then went on to serve as County Judge, and District Attorney, where she was the first woman ever to be elected to those positions. During her time in office, Jeanine was a powerful crusader for victims of crime. Her establishment of the Domestic Violence Bureau in her Prosecutor's Office was the first in the Nation. She excelled in all ways. In addition to her Legal career, Jeanine previously hosted her own Fox News Show, Justice with Judge Jeanine, for ten years, and is currently Co-Host of The Five, one of the Highest Rated Shows on Television. Jeanine is incredibly well qualified for this position, and is considered one of the Top District Attorneys in the History of the State of New York. She is in a class by herself. Congratulations Jeanine!

I have no side on this one, but the fact that you actually pretend to worry about taxpayer dollars is laughable.
