Washington (CNN)President Barack Obama plans to transfer additional detainees from Guantanamo Bay, the White House said Tuesday, hours after President-elect Donald Trump warned against moving any more prisoners from the naval facility. "I would expect, at this point, additional transfers to be announced," said Josh Earnest, the White House press secretary. He characterized the moves, which come in the final weeks of Obama's administration, as continuing the long-running effort to clear detainees from the prison.
Earlier Tuesday, Trump revived the hot-button topic of the prison facility at Guantanamo Bay, also known as Gitmo, in a Twitter message warning against further prisoner transfers before he takes office.

Fine. There will be plenty of room in Gitmo for all the crooks who should be convicted for malfeasance while in office the past 20 years. Drain the swamp, Pres. Trump!

The joint Chiefs or Pentagon officers in charge should be contacted by Trump and told to slow walk this thing for two weeks. And for them to not worry about any repercussions from bunghole Barry

Trump needs to tweet that any country accepting them will suffer “serious consequences” once he is sworn in.

And when they kill humans, not a word from the media.
