Florida’s Attorney General James Uthmeier derided Democratic Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and other “communist members of Congress” as he promoted the state’s forthcoming “Alligator Alcatraz” detention center, challenging protesters to find the facility in the dense swampland of the Everglades.
The construction of the center on the disused, 17,000 acre Dade-Collier Training and Transition Airport west of Miami was announced earlier this week, with Uthmeier gloating in a social media video that it will require minimal additional security due to its remote location, which is home to such dangerous wildlife as alligators and pythons.
