The Department of Homeland Security took to social media on Saturday to try its hand at comedy. The department, which has been slammed for its masked arrests that have looked more like kidnappings to some bystanders, posted an image trolling critics of the so-called “Alligator Alcatraz” or “Gator Gitmo” plan.
The image features a row of four alligators in ICE hats standing in front of a concrete prison surrounded by a razor-wire-topped fence. It appears to be AI-generated—unless their photographer had a really good reptile handler.
The ‘joke’ is in reference to Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis’ GOP-championed plan to open a new migrant detention facility in the heart of the Sunshine State’s alligator-infested Everglades swamplands.
