This is on the terrain of the former Virgil Grissom Airforce base.
Not too far from Chicago, the illegal headquarters in Midwest.
Lots of real estate, facilities ready, full size, underused airport.
I think they can squeeze in a lot more than 1000 illegals.
Just perfect!
Only Alligators are missing!

Rats put them up in swanky hotels and they do so much damage the buildings get condemned then more cronyism is handed out to fix the mess and as every Rat project goes, it’s never done and ten times over budget.

Since the base closed some 30 years ago, they had problems with redeveloping the facilities.
Huge airport, many barracks, lots of real estate, mostly underused.
Friendly, patriotic population.
Perfect fit for the Midwest deportation hub.

Go ICE!

Cutesy name but it is nowhere near Speedway Indiana or the Indianapolis Motor Speedway.

We lived near the Indianapolis Speedway in the early ‘60s.
This facility is on the old Bunker Hill AFB (later renamed Grissum AFB).
It is quite a way north of Indianapolis between Kokomo and Peru Indiana.

I know this is changing the subject, but how’s Obama’s Presidential Library coming along?

Open one in Memphis and call it Murdered in Memphis.

Deport yourself before it happens to you...

The Speedway Slammer
The Houston Hossegow
The Columbus Clink
The Peoria Pen

How 'bout The Okefenokee Pokey!

Or maybe even The Okie Pokey!

It’s still active as an Air Reserve base with KC135 tankers. It’s a perfect place to stage flights directly from the slammer to wherever we want to send them.
