Noem doesn't rule out using Guantanamo Bay to house illegal immigrants

Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem did not rule out the possibility of using Guantanamo Bay in the Trump administration’s effort to combat illegal immigration, describing it as “an asset” that is being considered.

Noem detailed how the administration is actively working on keeping President Donald Trump’s campaign promise to deport illegal immigrants, citing Secretary of State Marco Rubio‘s negotiating with other countries in the process of returning them. In a new interview, Noem was asked if the Trump administration is ruling out using the Guantanamo Bay detention camps, to which she said the administration is “evaluating.”
