President Donald Trump revealed Tuesday that he was moving forward with his plan to reopen the infamous Alcatraz federal prison in San Francisco.
"Because of the Violence and Criminality I have seen due to the Open Border Policy of Sleepy Joe Biden," Trump wrote on Truth Social, "in particular allowing millions of people into our Country who shouldn't be here, I wanted something representative to show how we fight back, and then, it happened, I saw a picture of ALCATRAZ looking so foreboding, and I said, 'We're going to look into renovating and rebuilding the famous ALCATRAZ Prison sitting high on the Bay, surrounded by sharks. What a symbol it is, and will be!'"
The president said "conceptual work" began six months ago.
"Various prison development firms are looking at doing it with us. Still a little early, but lots of promise!" he exclaimed.
