Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth has shared footage of the first wave of dangerous illegal alien criminals to arrive at the military detention centre at Guantanamo Bay.
Hegseth announced that “These criminals trampled over our previously wide open border to bring violence and mayhem to our communities.”
He added, “President Trump has taken swift action to expel them immediately from our county, and our nation’s finest are helping lead the way in this critical mission.”

To assist with the influx of illegals, approximately 300 US military personnel have arrived at the Naval Station.
They will help with the construction of makeshift shelters and provide security, the New York Times reported.

The military has been advised to prepare the facility for at least 30,000 inhabitants as part of the Trump administration’s mass deportation operations.
President Trump said the dention centre will house the “worst criminal illegal aliens threatening the American people,” adding “Some of them are so bad we don’t trust the countries to hold them because we don’t want them coming back, so we’re going to send them to Guantanamo.”
Meanwhile, the U.S. Army has announced that recruiting goals have been far surpassed, and they have recorded the most successful enlistment numbers in over a decade.
BREAKING: In December 2024, the @USArmy had its best recruiting number in 12 years.
— Pete Hegseth (@PeteHegseth) February 4, 2025
In January 2025, the Army hit its best recruiting number in 15 YEARS.
BOTTOM LINE: America’s youth want to serve under the bold & strong “America First” leadership of @realDonaldTrump.
Clearly this is the fallout of seeing service members being deployed in securing the border and protecting the country, rather than being shipped overseas to engage in pointless foreign conflicts.

A C130 for TWO internees? So much theater. They better ramp it up fast.
Apparently, many of the stories of raids lately have been rebroadcastd of years-old enforcement actions; raids carried out years ago. This better not ALL be fake
I guess I pictured the numbers up in the millions. But hey, there are years ahead to get the numbers up.
Awesome work.
Can we send ours there too, please?
The illegal immigration industry is regrouping and will soon present a flurry of injustice fear porn. Lots of tears, crying children, cages and stories of having to drink out of the toilettes. Socialist media is negotiating financial demands to boost viewership as they have lost two thirds of their audience.
The uni-party plan for all contingencies ahead of time so the leftover money from the Covid scam will unleash an army of organizers, radical cat ladies, purple haired genderless freaks and head choppers. Should make for an entertaining summer. Rachel Maddow will lead the charge
The good news is military enrolment is up to support local authorities and ICE.
Most law enforcement agencies were deliberately dismantled and staffed with radicals over the last four years so it will take a few months to get deportations into high gear. Trump’s newly headed agency heads will reorganize and clean up Obiden’s mess.
Ship them all there, let them decide there whether a law breaker is a dangerous one or not.
