Donald Trump says it’s time to bring back The Rock — calling on federal agencies to rebuild and reopen Alcatraz for America’s “most violent offenders.”
In a fiery Truth Social post, Trump blamed “radicalized judges” and rising crime for his decision, calling the move part of his plan to overhaul the justice system.
But critics aren’t buying it. Nancy Pelosi slammed the proposal as “not serious,” noting Alcatraz is now a national park and tourist hotspot.
Whether prisoners return to the island remains unclear — but Trump’s tough-on-crime message is louder than ever.
