The move would be a drastic escalation through the White House to militarize immigration enforcement.

Reports from Washington
The Trump administration is ramping up plans to detain undocumented immigrants at military sites across the United States, an expansion of the White House’s efforts to use war resources to offset the president’s promised mass deportations.
President Trump’s team is presenting a deportation center in Fort Bliss, near El Paso, Texas, which can contain up to 10,000 undocumented immigrants as they pass through the deportation process, according to 3 officials familiar with the plan.
Fort Bliss would serve as a style as management aims to expand more detention services at military sites across the country, from Utah to the domain near Niagara Falls, to engage thousands more other people and make up for the lack of dominance in immigration and customs enforcement services, authorities said. They spoke on condition of anonymity to discuss the main points of a plan that is still in its early stages and has not yet been finalized.
