A federal appeals court on Thursday halted a lower court judge’s order to end operations indefinitely at the "Alligator Alcatraz" immigration detention center built in the Florida Everglades.
The panel voted 2-1 to stay the judge’s order pending the outcome of an appeal, allowing the facility to continue holding migrant detainees – for now.
Last month, U.S. District Judge Kathleen Williams issued a preliminary injunction blocking Florida from further expanding the detention center and ordering operations to dwindle by the end of October. The judge also ordered the state to transfer detainees to other facilities and to remove equipment and fencing.

HA HA!
Alligator Alcatraz LIVES!
-
It looks like the envirowackos won’t be able to use it for a tourist attraction after all.
Just the name is enough to make liberals poop their pants!
These legal Roller Coaster rides need to stop. It is costing the taxpayers a lot... And not just Federal but States also.
See you later Alligator.
Welcome back deportation pack.
All those judges that practiced lawfare should be sent there as well - after they’re tarred, feathered and ridden out of town on a rail.
The left is always on board with the federal government being SOLEY in charge of immigration control when Democrats are in charge, but when a conservative Republican administration takes over, suddenly everyone else can meddle in the process.
Anyone else notice this?
What was the cost to the taxpayers of having to transfer the inmates to other facilities? That should come out of Williams’ pocket.
Good post. Can be applied to just about every issue.
I noticed.
To restate the moral from one of Aesop’s Fables, “Any excuse is sufficient for a tyrant.”
Going to make great campaign ads in a couple months though.
I can remember when Farmers Branch, Texas tried to implement an English-only city policy for government operations during the Bush years. They were relentlessly legally attacked for doing so, and leftist courts repeatedly said they couldn’t do it. It was a “constitutional” issue, supposedly.
There is nothing more common sense than making English the official language for the United States and all of its sub-divisions.
Judge was bribed for his decision, now indict and convict.
And the democrats will find another judge to block it again, waste the process again, to be overturned again.
I am sure a van load of angry retired school marks will make the trek every month or so to hold a few signs at the gate.
I remember how orgasmic the democrats and their media whore were when Obama scolded Jan Brewer of Arizona for daring to enforce immigration law which Obama refused to enforce.
Anyone else notice this?
I don't think this is really true. The whole idea of "sanctuary cities and states" has been around for a long time. The real issue is that the left has never seen a way to hurt the USA and spend our tax dollars on it, they did not like.
