In a bold and long-overdue move to restore law and order, President Donald J. Trump announced that the federal government will reopen the infamous Alcatraz prison — a message that couldn’t be more clear: under Trump’s leadership, America is *done* coddling criminals.

Taking to Truth Social, the president lit a fire under the soft-on-crime establishment, calling for the immediate rebuilding and reopening of Alcatraz to house the nation’s most violent and incorrigible offenders. It’s a striking reversal of the Left’s failed “decarceration” policies, which have turned major cities into hellholes of unchecked violence, drugs, and chaos.

“REBUILD, AND OPEN ALCATRAZ!” Trump declared. “For too long, America has been plagued by vicious, violent, and repeat Criminal Offenders, the dregs of society, who will never contribute anything other than Misery and Suffering.”

Alcatraz, a maximum-security prison located on a rocky island off the coast of San Francisco, once held some of the most dangerous criminals in American history — including Al Capone. Surrounded by cold, shark-infested waters, escape was nearly impossible. It was shuttered in 1963. But under Trump, the legendary fortress will be reborn — this time, for the benefit of law-abiding Americans.

“When we were a more serious Nation,” Trump wrote, “we did not hesitate to lock up the most dangerous criminals, and keep them far away from anyone they could harm. That’s the way it’s supposed to be.”

And he’s exactly right.

For years now, Americans have watched helplessly as radical prosecutors and activist judges, cheered on by the Left, have released repeat offenders back onto the streets. Cities like San Francisco, Chicago, and New York have become war zones — not due to lack of funding or policing, but because Democrat leadership refuses to enforce the law.

Trump’s solution? Send the worst of the worst — the violent gang members, career criminals, and yes, the illegal aliens protected by leftist sanctuary policies — to a modern-day Alcatraz. “No longer will we tolerate these Serial Offenders who spread filth, bloodshed, and mayhem on our streets,” the president stated.

According to Trump, he’s directed the Bureau of Prisons, DOJ, FBI, and Homeland Security to not only reopen Alcatraz, but substantially expand and modernize it for the 21st century. The goal is simple: protect American communities by isolating the predators that terrorize them.

In a follow-up statement outside the White House, President Trump doubled down, saying the prison will serve as a powerful message to both criminals and the rogue judges who protect them: “We will no longer be held hostage to criminals, thugs, and Judges that are afraid to do their job.”

He concluded with a thunderous rallying cry: “The reopening of ALCATRAZ will serve as a symbol of Law, Order, and JUSTICE. We will, MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!”

At a time when Americans are desperate for safety and accountability, Trump’s move is exactly the kind of leadership this nation needs. Alcatraz is coming back — and for the criminal class, the party is over.
