A television network report on a detained illegal alien who was sent to America's prison at Guantanamo Bay, then returned to his native Venezuela, has the makings of a great advertisement for President Donald Trump's Immigration and Customs Enforcement, and his border security plans.

That's according to media personality Benny Johnson, who posted the clip on X.

The alien, Kevin Rodriguez, explains, "I don't plan on leaving my country, because I am traumatized by everything I went through."

The NBC clip explained the interview was with Telemundo.

He was detained for 14 days in Guantanamo, to which Trump has been sending captured illegal alien criminals.

And during those days in a six foot by nine foot cell, he lost nine pounds.

"There were spider webs. The cell was in really bad shape," he said, according to a translation. "What worried me was how long I was going to be there. How long my family would go without knowing about how I was doing."

Kristi Noem, Trump's Department of Homeland Security secretary, said, "This is part of our plan to make sure that we're protecting America."
