Donald Trump has a new plan to send tens of thousands of migrants to Guantanamo Bay, the U.S. naval base in Cuba. He signed the Laken Riley Act this week, ordering the Department of Defense and Homeland Security to gear up for this unusual use of the facility, which has historically housed terrorism suspects.
Trump insists some migrants are too dangerous for their home countries to handle, so he wants them kept in a place from which they can't easily return. This move has sparked intense debate around national security, humanitarian concerns, and Guantanamo's controversial past.
