Here is a tiny victory in a much bigger battle. There was a tension I've been holding in me ever since this place opened that I didn't even know was there.
Ron DeSantis wasted $250 million on Alligator Alcatraz as it faces closure
A federal judge has ruled that the new Florida detention center must close within 60 days.

They're building another concentration camp over in texas.
Japanese American groups blast use of Fort Bliss, former internment camp site, as ICE detention center
Japanese American groups criticized the construction of a new immigrant detention center in Texas at a military base that was used during World War II to imprison people of Japanese descent.

@futurebird Which cronies of the MAGA got the contracts for that swampy concentration camp. They get money for building it and for tearing it down.

of course it’s not gone yet.
of course there are more.@futurebird
Yes, and more to come, quietly, in places no one hears about, while everyone has been focused on the PR-stunt one. -

Dammit now you have me wondering if they didn’t fight back hard enough against the lawsuit just to let it go away without needing to admit it was wrong and disgusting.

It looks like it will close. It was in a wetland and they skimped on sewage treatment. It was a blight on many levels.

@futurebird every single time we make them take two months to do something they wanted to do in a week, that’s a win. That’s two months that they aren’t doing something else terrible. Every time we make them take a concentration camp apart and spend more money building another one, that’s a win.
It’s nowhere near enough, but I guarantee things would’ve gotten much worse much faster and hurt many more people by now if not for these little wins.

And if your arm gets twisted till you have to say you might do it, maybe say it then don't do anything.And if you ever do? Do it wrong.

Thanks for these links. I don't know how I missed them in the article.
Critical Response strategies appears to be a shell company, and is only 4 years old. Will Adkins, who seems to be in property development, is listed as the principle. But other people have been looking for who owns these companies. https://jaxtrib.org/2025/07/16/jacksonville-firm-with-78-million-alligator-alcatraz-contract-has-obscure-origins/ I don't know if this is the same Will Adkins. https://waterfrontgrp.com/ -

I couldn't find any photos of the owners or contact info like address or phone number on two of those sites.
I do hope to get their names out and that they get snubbed at least by some people.
