Heard this on a local news station. It was going to double up on beds. From 300 to either 500 or 600. I am trying my best to understand why anyone born in the United States is trying to protect these people.

they use that airport (old England AFB) to fly the hombres out of Oakdale.

I guess they need more space. Bayou Boeuf Alcatraz

OP isn't clear. The answer is Trump is expanding the beds in the barracks at that airport. This is good news. The barracks houses people that are being deported. So ramping up deportations there it seems.

They were bringing them in by plane through there under Biden.

It’s sad that the last they’ll see of the US is Ellick.

I think Alexandria has been used for many years for deportation flights
