JD Vance sits down with Hannity as Trump signs executive order for detention camp at Guantanamo: Live
President Donald Trump has directed his administration to revive a migrant detention facility at the Guantanamo Bay Naval Station in Cuba to hold detained migrants while they await deportation.
“Today I‘m also signing an executive order to instruct the Departments of Defense and Homeland Security to begin preparing the 30,000-person migrant facility at Guantanamo Bay,” Trump declared while signing the Laken Riley Act into law.
Earlier, Robert F Kennedy Jr was the latest controversial cabinet pick to be grilled by Senators over his nomination to lead the Department of Health and Human Services.
The 71-year-old declared war on chronic illness, refuted anti-vaxxer claims, and said he would follow Trump’s lead on abortion despite once being pro-choice. There were tense moments when Democrats read out conspiracy-laden statements he had made in the past including about AIDS and Covid-19.
Tomorrow he will go before the Senate Health, Education, Labor, and Pensions Committee.
Meanwhile, the White House has abruptly rescinded a directive that threatened to freeze billions of dollars in federal assistance following a federal judge’s decision that temporarily blocked the administration from freezing funds across government agencies.
