💨 Abstract

In Florida, a controversial immigrant detention center dubbed "Alligator Alcatraz" has opened in the Everglades, facing swift construction and immediate controversy. Proposed by Florida's Attorney General James Uthmeier, the facility is set to house up to 3,000 immigrants, albeit facing legal challenges and environmental concerns from local tribes and activists. President Donald Trump, along with Governor Ron DeSantis, visited the site.
