Summary

Federal watchdogs slam Camp East Montana as a colossal waste of taxpayer cash—$11.5 million vanished in just two weeks, even though the facility was empty until mid-August. The Government Accountability Office accuses ICE of rushing the opening at Fort Bliss, ignoring safety, medical care, and humane treatment standards. Security failures include missing cameras, understaffed monitoring, and a loaded gun still missing since January. ICE claims improvements are underway, but civil rights advocates and lawmakers demand immediate closure, calling conditions unsafe and unsustainable.
