President Donald Trump is calling for the notorious prison and now historical landmark, Alcatraz, in San Francisco, California, to be rebuilt larger and reopened to house the country’s most ruthless and violent criminals.
Trump made the announcement in a Truth Social post on Sunday evening.
"REBUILD, AND OPEN ALCATRAZ!" the president said. "For too long, America has been plagued by vicious, violent, and repeat Criminal Offenders, the dregs of society, who will never contribute anything other than Misery and Suffering.
"When we were a more serious Nation, in times past, we did not hesitate to lock up the most dangerous criminals, and keep them far away from anyone they could harm," Trump continued, adding that it's supposed to be this way. "No longer will we tolerate these Serial Offenders who spread filth, bloodshed, and mayhem on our streets."
