The Trump Administration is preparing for the arrival of deported migrants at a Guantanamo Bay detention facility, according to Defense Secretary Noem
The Trump administration said Tuesday it has begun flying migrants from the U.S. to a deportation holding facility in Guantánamo Bay, Cuba, even though some immigration lawyers question the legality of that move.
Several hundred U.S. military service members have arrived at Guantánamo in recent days in preparation for the arrival of deported migrants, according to the Defense Department. It said the number of service members deployed there will “continue to fluctuate” based on guidance from the Department of Homeland Security, which will oversee the holding facility.
There has always been a presence of illegal immigrants there. We’re just building out some capacity,” said Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem.
“We’ll be able to continue doing the things that we’ve always done there because of the facilities at the site,” she said, emphasizing that the due process will be followed.
