Documents released Thursday offer the most complete picture to date of the Trump administration’s controversial and costly plan to overhaul immigrant detention using industrial buildings.

U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement expects to spend $38.3 billion on its plan to acquire warehouses across the country and retrofit them into immigrant detention centers that can hold tens of thousands of immigrants, according to agency documents provided to New Hampshire’s governor and published on the state’s website Thursday.

I hope they are happy with their decision and they can go get fucked.
