Update from Catherine Herridge:
Camp Justice: Day 2
Guantanamo Bay, Cuba
January 21, 2025
“Only fifteen detainees from the war on terror remain at Guantanamo Bay.
Based on public reporting, between the detention camps and ongoing military trials, it could cost US taxpayers about $30,000,000 annually per detainee.
We were told no media trips have been granted to the detention camps since 2019, with current access more restricted than ever.
Where is the transparency, accountability and evidence of government efficiency?”
Here is my takeaway:
The above financials do not make any sense, (based on only 15 detainees).
President Trump not only revoked the closure of GITMO, which was ordered by Obama, but he ordered that the United States could now lawfully detain additional enemy combatants at GITMO when necessary to protect the Nation.
Hundreds of millions of dollars have been spent to upgrade and expand GITMO, which began under Trump, and continued under Biden.
Not only did Biden not close it, which he promised, he kept the expansion going.
Over the last 5 years, the National Guard has been deploying to GITMO to support Joint Task Force Guantanamo Bay in prison detention operations.
All of this for 15 detainees?
The real military has been getting it ready to house thousands of war criminals.
In fact, I believe many war criminals have already been detained there.
