Main use: Gunnery range for US Navy ships.

Rather than spend this money we don’t have and increase the federal budget deficit... how about repatriate our troops from ungrateful places like Europe.. and use that money and troops to defend our borders to prevent this illegal human trafficking in the first place? Isn’t it the federal government’s job to defend our borders and not those of say Germany, Afghanistan, Syria, etc?
I doubt it will cost that much.
Ideally we would not be warehousing them but sending them home as quickly as possible.
However, it appears our laws require a hearing and I would rather pay to detain them than set them free inside the US.
Once we get the wall built the problem will diminish.
It may diminish on its own once word spreads that there are no more free passes.
Put up the detention centers in Mexico.
Put up the detention centers in Mexico on the south side of The Wall.
I recommend Fort Irwin. It’s a real garden spot.
Get Joe Arpaio to run it for them and it will be done for 10% of that.
If it saves just one U.S. citizen’s life. It’s worth it.
“sprawling immigrant detention centres on military bases ... a facility for 25,000 people”
Boot them all surreptitiously. When sued by the commie left, tell the court “Sorry, there was a paperwork glitch, aggravated by inadequate computer systems. We’re trying to correct this but can’t say that it won’t happen again.”
Send the bills to the democrat party.
Why build em on our soil? Why not just show up in Messy Co Chitty and build some Aunt Maxie slums?
Near San Francisco? It should be in San Francisco. Put it square in the Presidio so that liberals can feed the migrants during their stroll thru the park.
How much is it costing the British tax payer, BBC? Wankers! You let Savile WALK!!!
May be a good time to invest in companies who manufacture tent stakes....
They are releasing murderers, kidnappers, sex criminals, and drunk drivers into the American populace because their home countries won't take them back?
And they released even more last year?
How the hell is all hell not breaking loose?
This is insane, the apparatchiks and the politicians and judges responsible for this need to go to jail.
START IMMIGRATION REFORM BY CATCHING THESE MF’S AND SENDING THEM BACK TO WHERE THEY CAME FROM.
Their countries don’t want them back, TOO DAMN BAD.
These are just contingency plans, in the case of massive overflow (e.g. AMLO gets elected President of Mexico on July 1st, and sends hundreds of thousands across in waves).
At current rates of just a few thousand detainees - maybe ten or twenty thousand in a bad case scenario, existing housing on military bases can be used, as they have before,
There are old barracks, and Reserve facilities that can be used. They were housing a lot on Lackland AFB in Texas under Obama - those facilities can be started up again. It is logistically close to the border, and military aircraft could possibly be used to repatriate them.
The big wild card is accommodating family units - mixed male, female and child. That could make it more challenging; requiring either private rooms, or big open facilities.
Sheriff Joe could get that cost way down. Put him in charge.

Essentially it's saying, OK Mexico, you encourage your citizens to sponge off the USA, we will just deduct that cost to us from remittances. Net gain, amigo, zero dollars. At the current exchange rate that works out to zero pesos.
