It's under construction right now. And we've acquired more than 100 miles of easement. I'll let the president know that all of that is available for the United States of America. Texas built two military bases that can house 2,000 soldiers in one base, 400 soldiers in another base. I made sure the president know that was available to him. I let the president know that we have identified 4,000 jail cells in the state of Texas that can be used as detention facilities. (02:01–02:11)
