The Democratic chairwoman of the Senate Intelligence committee has commissioned a federal report to identify prison facilities in the U.S. that are suitable for housing Guantanamo detainees, a document exclusively reviewed by Fox News shows.
In the internal document, the Government Accountability Office refers to “Source of Work: Ms. Dianne Feinstein, Chair, Select Committee on Intelligence, U.S. Senate” and lists the “Gist of Work” as an investigation into whether domestic facilities could house the approximately 170 detainees remaining at the controversial facility in Guantanamo Bay, Cuba.
Two hours after Fox News' inquiry about the report, Feinstein's office posted the report online and released a statement confirming that the California senator thinks the Obama administration's controversial plan to relocate detainees to the United States is a viable option.
“This report demonstrates that if the political will exists, we could finally close Guantanamo without imperiling our national security,” Feinstein said. “The GAO report makes clear that numerous prisons exist inside the United States -- operated by both the Department of Defense and the Department of Justice—capable of holding the 166 detainees who remain at Guantanamo in an environment that meets the security requirements.”

No federal taxpayer money an be used.
put them in San Francisco, right next to Diane,it would cost a lot to re decorate a prison to cater to all the rag heads needs,but if difi wants them she can have them..
Maybe the feds can put them up at Feinstein and Pelosi’s houses.
IF I was a terrorist sitting on my butt at Gitmo I’d be sweating blood bullets over the possibility of being transfered to a prison in the U.S. and being surrounded by American criminals who had nothing better to do all day than figure out some way to get at me and do things to my body that no one has ever heard of and would never believe possible.
Absolutely...Gitmo is the ideal place for them not considering six feet under ground.
Bet she's doing this thinking California needs another federal bailout for their prison system.
How about we put them in the White House where they will find a very compatible warden.
Yep, Obama could fire his staff and the replacements would possibly be a benefit to the country.
Sure....give the terrorists some more targets.
And right next door is a thread about Egypt sentencing Americans to death.
How mixed up we are.
We put the worst enemies of the U.S. up in the Guantanamo Plaza Hotel, while they sentence people to death for insulting their moon god.
Someday, Lord willing, we’ll get back to old-school justice, put on our big boy pants and take care of business.
Wonder how much the duo figure they could get from federal "detention centers."

This study has already been done in the Bush administration. It recommended a prison facility in Kansas or Kentucky if memory serves me correctly. Obama could have closed Gitmo years ago...
GUANTÁNAMO BAY DETAINEES: Facilities and Factors for Consideration If Detainees Were Brought to the United States November 2012
As I remember Obama and Holder were trying to close Gitmo but didn't have much luck.
House them in Pacific Heights . . . and Castro
That’s right, Dianne. Make America MORE OF A TARGET than it already is. Another liberal female gone senile.
