Does a viral image really show Hulk Hogan posing in front of caged migrants at "Alligator Alcatraz"? No, that's not true: The image is composed of two different pictures. One showed a Border Patrol facility in Texas in 2019

Flight tracking data appears to show that two military aircraft left the facility this week for Texas and Louisiana.

The Department of Homeland Security views Alligator Alcatraz as a model to be replicated nationwide. Texas, which as of June, already has more ICE detainees than any other state, has positioned itself as a willing partner. Gov. Greg Abbott claimed through a spokesman that the state has offered “4,000 beds for detention.”

Trump administration officials want “Alligator Alcatraz” to be a blueprint, but Democrats are pushing back on expansion

Republican states are considering building versions of Florida's "Alligator Alcatraz," a detention facility for illegal immigrants that was celebrated by President Donald Trump.

The Trump administration’s push to quickly ramp up immigration arrests has led to overcrowding at ICE facilities and allegations of inhumane and unsanitary conditions.
