White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt said on Tuesday that the “first flights” carrying illegal immigrants to Guantanamo Bay are underway. Leavitt made the announcement during an interview on Fox Business, where she said that President Donald Trump was not “messing around” with the plan that he announced last week during the signing ceremony of the Laken Riley Act.
“He’s no longer going to allow America to be a dumping ground for illegal criminals from nations all over this world,” she told Fox Business host Stuart Varney. “Venezuela as well has agreed to repatriation flights and Colombia also agreed to cooperate with the repatriation of illegal Colombian nationals that we have found in the interior of our country,” she continued. “And I can also confirm that today the first flights from the United States to Guantanamo Bay with illegal migrants are underway.”
