AI Summary:
President Donald Trump says he has ordered officials to rebuild and reopen Alcatraz. The directive was the latest move by the Republican to overhaul how and where federal prisoners and immigration detainees are locked up. It comes as his administration has been clashing with the judiciary after invoking an 18th century law. No successful escapes were ever recorded from Alcatraz during the 29 years it was open. Overall, 36 men attempted 14 separate escapes. The prison, which has been the subject of several films, was closed in 1963.
