Act like a criminal…end up in cage…..agreed
When this is all said and done, every corrupt politician needs time on those cages.
Sounds a LOT like 1930's Germany…
Soo When Kristy noem Miller and All of Trump's regime is actually held accountable, We can actually put themselves in these! Trump you're actually a monster! Miller I can't wait to see you treated like that!
Anyone working for these places/people, my question is- When you find yourself in need, what will you do when you have a caregiver who knows your secrets?
Blessings.
Blessings.
Some people have never been to prison and it shows..
This is DISGUSTING
Hold on didn’t we already prove that Obama is original designer of the cage
So cruel. Even if someone is here illegally, they don’t deserve this treatment. Not only is it cruel but taxpayers pay big money to fund this.
This is disgusting
SO! It worked!
This is another Guantanamo Bay but in the United States😢.
Too many people are sadistic and want to hurt other people and unfortunately they are the ones that are in an authority position.
GOOD! They should know better. Hopefully this sent a message to all of them!
So you are schilling for the CCP…….
U can fit 3 in there! Smh 🤨
That's an Obama Cage design.
Are the cages not small enough? I mean, their victims are laying in coffins…that's pretty confined…I think they have plenty of room.
Can’t wait to see Trump and co being bars
Good they know better now not to come back!
Children where placed in similar cages
They destroyed a pristine environment, spent a billion dollars, then closed it in a year. Disgusting in every way imaginable.
They need to start putting bounties on their heads we need to put as much as we can to save our country
I didn't think a cage like that would exist in USA. This is 2026.
Cruel and unusual punishment!!! Plus immoral and racist and bad policy.
There was plenty of opportunity for them to go back on their own. The government was willing to pay for the tickets. It’s called the carrot and the stick.
Super Max is just like this and it’s for us citizens just a thought
That's where Trump belongs.
What’s the problem? Illegal with comfort
LAWSUITS MUST BE FILED!!! 😢😮😢😮😢😮😢😮😢😮😢😮😢😮
Oh no prisoners were put in solitary confinement boohoo
WTAF
That's what they were for? Than the jailers won't care if they are made to go in for the same amount of time those people were put in there for, right? Make the people who put another human in that cage go in for the same amount of time ON CAMERA NOW NBC! Ask the people who went in and make these people go in there now.
This is American values.
