msnbc reporter has been talking about this huge Army base in his background out in the middle

of nowhere. I think he said Army base. Anyway, he was saying it is far of nowhere and will be more difficult for
press to get in or to interview any families. I assume it is Fed. land so they will control access. He was saying more bases will be opened or made into places for (refugee) families.. They technically are and will be under arrest awaiting their hearing.

I can not see this going well at all.

because they do not worship the Trump Cult and/or stand/sit at attention when Trump speaks. The US is fertile ground for Nazi white Supremacism.

Seriously, if it was possible to do that, then every military base in the country would have been transformed into a multi-use venue decades ago. Maybe a fighter squadron and a fish hatchery, or army infantry and nuclear waste storage, naval port and crude oil terminal.
