The Trump administration appears to have halted its plans to significantly increase the transfer of undocumented migrants to Guantanamo Bay, following considerable pushback and concerns from various quarters. The proposed plan, which involved vetting approximately 9,000 migrants for transfer to the base, would have marked a substantial increase from the current numbers.
According to Politico, the transfers, initially scheduled for later this week, were delayed partly due to unrest related to immigration crackdowns in Los Angeles, according to an administration official speaking on condition of anonymity. The timeline for potentially implementing the plan remains unclear.
