How many detainees can GITMO hold?

They would be moved to El Salvador
Former Blackwater CEO Erik Prince has spearheaded a plan to privatize and offshore U.S. immigration detention by using El Salvador’s new mega-prison complex. The proposal obtained by POLITICO, calls for transporting up to 100,000 detainees from U.S. custody to El Salvador. Under the plan, Prince’s new entity (called “2USV”) would partner with El Salvador to round up “100,000 of the worst criminal offenders” currently in U.S. prisons, hold them initially at a 10,000-bed camp for processing, and then fly them to a Salvadoran prison for long-term incarceration. The targeted population is described as “criminal illegal aliens,” meaning non-citizens with criminal convictions, though Prince has also pitched involving U.S. citizens in some scenarios.
Under the proposal, private contractors would handle nearly every step of the operation. Prince’s team (comprised of military and defense contractors) seeks a lucrative government contract to locate, capture, detain, and deport these individuals on behalf of the U.S. To do this, 2USV asked for access to federal law enforcement and immigration databases to help identify deportable inmates across U.S. prisons. The contractors even want a role in immigration court proceedings: If a detainee lacks a final deportation order, 2USV would “facilitate a hearing before an immigration judge” to resolve any asylum claims. They also propose negotiating plea deals with U.S. prosecutors – offering prisoners reduced sentences if they agree not to fight deportation and accept removal orders. In effect, Prince’s group aims to replace or augment parts of ICE and immigration courts with a privately run enforcement arm, expediting removals outside the normal system.

Prince is a neocon shill making billions off the MIC. He should be relegated to the bin with his buddies Cheney, Graham, Waltz, Rubio, etc.

On second thought, it should be a "No." on all of it.

Would you trust Obama, or AOC, or Hillary, or any democrat for that matter with this authority?

False. Prince had exit strategies for Afghanistan that would’ve been so much cheaper and better and exited years ago.

So the dude who has made a fortune sucking up billions of taxpayers dollars making war had a plan to better spend taxpayers $, in getting folks out of a warzone he made millions in? Sounds reasonable to me.

Have you listened to any of his interviews? He was infinitely wealthy before he started the company. His family is filthy rich. He started it because the government is so inefficient. Unfortunately, jobs need to be done but why cost the tax payers 10x what it should cost?

Yes. I have. I also MULTIPLE combat tours in the US Army while his company made BILLIONS protecting State Dept and other “VIPs” doing absolutely nothing to make things better in OIF/OEF!!!!!
So STFU defending a billionaire who never put himself in harm’s way!!!

30,000

You are comparing apples to oranges. They protected VIPs because thats what they got contracted to do, he wasn't handed the DoD's budget to go fight a war - he got a very small fraction of it to do specific tasks.
Its no different than how Musk is making billions of dollars by doing NASA's job at a fraction of the cost NASA would charge the taxpayer if they did it themselves
Prince's proposal to spend $25b to expedite the removal of illegal aliens is a bargain. They need to go. They wont go from ICE alone.

Were you there?! I was. Full stop. While we had to bivouac in the elements, their mercs lived the good life on per diem and followed no ROE.
Dude NEVER served in combat and milks sheep civilians of billions because he’s a blue blood smooth talker. Period.

If you think a billion dollars is a lot, you would be astonished by the DoD budget.
Its a rounding error.

Dude, I gave 22 frickin years of my life in US Army as CE. Nothing astonishes me re: govt waste! If you only knew the battles I fought re: contractor fraud, waste and abuse as well as stupid regs to use “preferred” contractors re: procurement.
I retired as an E8 in 22 years as soon as I hit TIG. I know what Im talking about.

It's a good plan. For one, it would act as deterrence for future illegals thinking of crossing the border.

Procurement is a total shite show, that we will agree on 100% 
The forced consolidation of contractors in the 90s royally fricked this country, and our procurement even before that wasnt great. So much grift.
What could go wrong with going from 50 to 5 prime contractors for bidding? Gubermint at its finest, and people think we dont need DOGE
