The moral damage has already been done... If it's unfit for humans, then everyone who was there should sue. There's a great opportunity for a class action suit for both US and origin countries. Not easy but the court just gave everyone a window.
It's a bold move by the judge but Trump and his dickweed constituents don't listen to laws they don't like. Enforcement of punishment is the only method to stop this and I highly doubt anyone in the legal sector has the balls to do that.
It isn't being shut down because it is a horrific concentration camp that offends any sensible person but because it violates some environmental protection laws in the area. They are going to spend 400 million building a new 100 million dollar camp further north in Florida to replace it.

Well Abrego-Garcia just left federal custody yesterday so clearly some of them care a little bit. The question is if we can invite everyone involved here to do the same.
In August 2025, Williams ruled in favor of a coalition of environmental groups and ordered that the immigration detention facility known as Alligator Alcatraz be closed within 60 days and that no new detainees be brought to the facility, due to the irreparable harm that the facility was causing to the Florida Everglades https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kathleen_M._Williams
Remember when he sent a mob to overthrow the government and was convicted of 34 felonies and didnt get any punishment? Yea the law doesnt fucking matter anymore.
I agree with you, but at the same time, take your wins where you can get them. If it's environmental concerns that get Alligator Auschwitz shut down, I'll still be happy that it was shut down.
Can't just immediately shut down, you have to do something with the detainees. Even if it was to release them all, you need to get affairs in order. This judge is a good one and knows that.
A federal judge, Kathleen Williams, has ordered the shutdown of the Alligator Alcatraz detention facility in Florida. This ruling prohibits new detentions and mandates the removal of current detainees within 60 days. The judge cited violations of environmental laws as the primary reason for this decision.
"shut down" in this case doesn't mean "stop using and move everyone out" it means "no new people and dismantle the entire thing" and giving them 60 days to do that isn't wholly unreasonable.
The place is rife with structural issues, they are building new ones. This is a publicity stunt. They will shut it down and move them to the new facilities. 60 days is enough time to build the new locations and move the detainees.
Considering the SCOTUS gave him absolute immunity, absolutely no punishment for him. A few underlings might end up in court for a few days, but old Presidential Pardon still exists and "They're being treated so unfairly" Trump will absolutely just pardon them if it comes down to it.
We all know what the right punishment for a dictator above the law is, and that it needs to be dished out by a determined individual who will become a hero for their actions. Be this hero!
He goes to appeals court and wins. I'm not wrong those appeals Judges are all bought. Millions from Trump. Every time he goes to appeals he wins. It is fucking lunacy.
At this point, if we're able to keep successfully playing whack-a-mole, not all hope is lost. We might actually have a chance at improving once he's gone
For him? Nothing. For the goons who would be carrying out the illegal orders…….probably also nothing.
It’s the goons who could be arrested en masse and charged. Were that to happen we’d find the government behaving much different. Trump could bluster all he wants, but that far old fuck can’t carry anything out himself.
how about this, if they don't comply the judge orders this image to be plastered all over Tallahassee, Miami and Orlando. We know these Republicans are extremely petty so why not.
Unironically a person in power blatantly going against explicit checks and balances should be considered an usurper and a traitor, and what's the punishment for that again?
You expect the police, who have proven themselves to be nazis with their "above the law" and "i can commit murder and get away with in unless there is a massive protest" attitudes?
He might be above the law, but none of his underlings are. The people who have to physically staff and keep it open can be held in contempt ond arrested. Even if he issues them all pardons, funds can be frozen. No one's gonna go keep it running with no paycheck.
We're allowed to vent. It's that or you'd be bitching about us being complicit. It's not like we'd be stupid enough to actually plan shit in a comment section anyway. So save your judgements for those who gave up, and not for those who are still venting.
*shakes fist* Those damn bullies. Always picking on the little guy. Always trying to stop honest hard-working people from committing massive human rights violations.
This is where the third branch of govt gets to weigh in. If they side with the executive against the court then nothing happens. If they side with the court then it's what the comment says.
You'd think it would make him ineligible for further office, but nope. It just went on his report card, and that was filed in a cabinet in the basement somewhere.

The Carnation Revolution:
A military coup organized by the Armed Forces Movement (MFA) led to the peaceful overthrow of the Estado Novo dictatorship.
A Day of Liberation:
The revolution ended the dictatorship and Portugal's colonial wars, establishing democracy and fundamental freedoms for the Portuguese people.
