The 41 illegal immigrants who were briefly being housed at the Anchorage Correctional Complex have been relocated to prisons in the Lower 48.
Alaska took the inmates in to help relieve overcrowding in a Tacoma ICE facility. Earlier this month, six of the inmates were then relocated, and the final 35 inmates left on Monday.
Their stay in Alaska was part of a renegotiated agreement that the State of Alaska Department of Corrections has with ICE, under which illegal immigrants who are awaiting deportation processes can be housed in Alaska prisons when space is available.
The ACLU-Alaska, Socialists, and Democrats decried the move, and the Democrat-led House Judiciary Committee held a hearing to expose the matter as a violation of human rights.
Local left-leaning media has insinuated that Department of Corrections released the inmates based on the pressure from the ACLU, but the housing of the inmates was always a temporary measure and their removal from Alaska was under the control of ICE and was part of standard operations to get illegal aliens out of the United States as quickly as possible.
Seems like AK907 is missing out on the detainment facilities party. Deadhorse would most assuredly make a great location for said facility.
The ACLU-Alaska, Socialists, and Democrats. There should be one word to describe these people. Save time on typing. How about Communists, or even Commies for short?
Amen
No one is even discussing the indictment of Biden, his Homeland Security Secretary, and numerous others who willfully ignored immigration law for four years. Their objective was to get votes by legalizing invaders while bribing them with taxpayer paid benefits. The game is over and the invaders must go home regardless of whether they are 8 or 88 or whether they have been here 3 years or 33 years. And do not use the slogan MAGA as an explicative. I will not be demeaned as a near 40 year veteran and an American patriot.
Air-drop them onto Little Diomede.
Left leaning local media is only good for weather reports but double check by walking outside.
The ACLU? Socialists? Democrats? Left-leaning media? They are complicit in all of this inasmuch as they created the atmosphere where it was easier than ever to just walk across the border. They worked tirelessly to make being an illegal something honorable, and to make ICE agents evil, deplorable and targets. These criminals will be deported. They broke the law by entering the United States illegally under the hollow promise of phones, food, shelter and healthcare – a land overflowing with Democrat milk and honey. They have been living here illegally syphoning off government benefits that were meant only for citizens. When they are deported, we’ll be left with a safer American and the knowledge that the ACLU, socialists and Democrats add nothing positive to society other than confusion, chaos and decay.
If Florida can open Alligator Alcatraz, why can’t we have our own Arctic Alcatraz on Adak?
Lance,
Adak is hardly Arctic. It is the Southern most settlement in Alaska, (51.81° N).
Maybe you might consider “Aleutian Alcaatraz”?
Good idea.
Then again, part of the appeal of Alligator Alcatraz is the actual alligators discouraging escape. A polar bear patrolling outside the fence is a pretty good justification for sitting in your cell and staying quiet.
In the immortal words of Curly Bill, “Well……………bye.”
In regards to Aleutian Alcatraz, the climate out this way is way more hellish than sitting in air-conditioned comfort surrounded by gators.
