New Jersey's largest military base is among those being considered by the Trump administration to detain undocumented immigrants, according to a bombshell report by The New York Times over the weekend.

The White House is making plans to use military sites across the US to help with mass deportation efforts.

Joint Base McGuire, Dix, Lakehurst in Burlington and Ocean Counties is on the list as a potential location for detainees, as the federal government is strapped for beds to hold immigrants.

According to the report, the administration is developing a deportation hub at Fort Bliss in Texas that would serve as a model for others.

New Jersey is based would serve as a satellite facility along with bases in nine other states, including in upstate New York, California and Colorado.

Previous administration agents have held undocumented migrant children at military bases as an emergency backup.

That's when the government's shelter system reached capacity.

But this move would be a drastic escalation by the White House to militarized immigration enforcement.

Governor Murphy's office isn't commenting on the plan.
