President Donald Trump surprised many in his own administration by announcing a plan to detain 30,000 immigrants at the U.S. naval base in Guantánamo Bay, Cuba. However, the plan has faced major legal, logistical, and financial challenges. The cost of flying immigrants to Guantánamo on military planes has raised concerns, as well as the lack of appropriate facilities. The administration has considered using charter planes, but has opted for military aircraft for optics reasons. The space to hold the immigrants is not ready, with tents lacking basic amenities like air conditioning and running water. While Trump still wants to move forward with the plan, there is a growing recognition within the administration that it may not be viable. Alternative options, such as using military bases in the U.S., have been considered as more cost-effective and efficient. The mission at Guantánamo is changing, with discussions of bringing some of the troops back and slowing down the flights bringing immigrants to the base. The administration has faced backlash for sending immigrants to Guantánamo, with concerns about the legality of the military flights carrying immigrants. Despite issues with the plan, Trump remains committed to his agenda of mass deportations.
