Homeland Security has approved a plan to build a detention center for undocumented immigrants surrounded by an alligator moat and pythons

Remember when Trump claimed he'd drain the swamp instead of adding more alligators?

Environmental groups and Native American tribes have protested against the center, contending it is a threat to the fragile Everglades system, would be cruel to detainees because of heat and mosquitoes, and is on land the tribes consider sacred.

Oh no! Not the "sacred land" ploy! That one is like a running joke. Every time some group on the Left can't get their way, or a tribe can't get their way, they trot out that tired old trope.

The Gila River tribe claimed that freeway in Phoenix was on "sacred land" and shouldn't be built. Once it was, the tribe put up like over a dozen sacred billboards on their land from which they get a cut of the profit. There's no way that many billboards could have been put up anywhere else in the state, but by god the tribe could put them up on the sacred land next to the sacred freeway.
