The only people who should be in Alcatraz are Trump, Musk, and their minions. Why haven’t Waltz and Hegseth been indicted yet? https://democracydefender2025.substack.com/p/mike-waltz-and-pete-hegseth-must?utm_source=publication-search

El Salvador, or at least Guantanamo. Alcatraz is too good for them.

I agree with this

Maybe I'm wrong but isn’t Alcatraz the property of the American Indians? I believe years back the Tribe won the property back.

It’s funny that following Trump’s latest loony idea of re-opening Alcatraz, most people’s first thought is using it for Trump and his family.

Now why would that be? 🤣

Trump himself, being a 34-times convicted criminal, is quite vocal about other convicted criminals.

It was understandable for Biden to pardon family members when he knew Trump thugs would continue to ruthlessly target them and a corrupted DOJ/Supreme Court could very well comply by punishing them. We should never have allowed it to get this far!

I wear this "A convicted felon will NEVER be my President! t-shirt everyday 👇

It represents a concentration camp to him. A high profile place to send his political opponents.

Yes because he found out the general public has no tolerance for El Salvador.

7 year old and that’s an insult to a 7 year old child, being compared to this hot mess

More nonsense from Donny Diapers. If anyone else had said that, it would have been laughed at. As it is, the world is laughing. At us for being idiotic enough to elect this clown.

We could save a lot of time and money by just using a guillotine.

Let it make money for the national parks!! Wonderful that it has been so successful as a tourist attraction!

Yeah, but Trump hates California, so this would be revenge to take away some revenue and further screw National Parks, which he wants to be privatized.

Immigrants regardless if illegal are not monsters nor have they committed any serious crimes to be treated in this manner

Trump hates California. Pure and simple..

Please stop him. Impeach him and remove him. Indict, prosecute, convict and sentence him. If i was the judge he would go to Guantanamo Bay and have his head shaved.

And I sincerely hope that someone is thinking ahead. We need to fix the qualifications for the office of President. We need to impeach and remove Thomas from SCOTUS. Dump the electoral college, impeach and remove Marjory Taylor Greene and clean up the Cabinet.

Donald Trump is a man standing on a tree limb with a saw and making a cut between himself and a very tall tree. It is our responsibility to stop him.

Thank you for your hard and courageous work.I am grateful.

As a volunteer since 2016 at Independence National Park (INDE), I know that our visitors generate significant revenue for the local economy in Philadelphia.

We have between 4-5 million visitors annually. International visitors frequent the numerous buildings that make up INDE. While I've spent most of my volunteer hours at the Edgar Allan Poe National Historic Site, rather than the Liberty Bell or Independence Hall, I like to say that I've met international visitors from every continent and islands in the Pacific Ocean!!

Both our international and US visitors view our parks as a national treasure. The NPS needs additional resources not budget cuts.

Trump and his entire administration should be the first people to be put in the cell in Alcatraz.

Twump is once again drawing on our tax money for his personal gain. This time it is to create a nice island resort for his retirement. But I applaud this use, and hope he will move there soon.

Alcatraz is way too good for him. El Salvador or Guantanamo are much more suitable, IMHO.

Trump lives in the past. Like Putin he wants to 'recreate' what he thinks were the golden ages. These guys don't adapt. They stagnate. We need to put them back in the past where they belong.
