More hypocrisy in the state of Texas. They are not forcing companies to use E-Verify could not risk losing 8 % of the work force in the lowest paying jobs just leads to more immigrant abuse in Texas.

We need everyone to call the Trump Detention centers what the are. CONCENTRATION CAMPS. DEATH CAMPS. Detention without proper care or treatment is no different.

DOJ is freeing a violent 3 time undocumented felon and allowing him to stay in US so he can testify against Abrego Garcia. Incredible hypocrisy!

PBS says the Senate budget has $350 billion to turn the US into a police state. Heck give each American $1000 instead...

In connection with this, has anyone been able to interview Kilmar Abrego Garcia about his experience yet? Someone needs to and get it out there for everyone to see and hear. I understand there may be obstacles to overcome, but I believe it could make a difference.

This entire private prison enterprise is complete bulls**t! No contact with a lawyer or family? No accountability?

Seriously, we are in the early stages of the most “advanced” (aka: predatory, invasive, unjust, …..) feudal society the world has ever seen.

Dark ages redux, here we come!

If you fill out the letters to elected officials provided by this link, you will get a “donate” page that goes to this effort of stopping ICE raids. Thank you for this link, I signed and donated.

That cruelty is the ground of being of the administration is so unthinkable. Why would humans do that? We are in a very bad movie. And we are one humanity, whether we cherish that or not. We are here to care, and this is breaking our hearts.

Still cannot figure out why Demopublican Congresspeople have not been able to accompany their Republicrat colleagues on inspection tours of ICE facilities. My guess is the Republicrats are not willing to function as human shields when the zip ties and handcuffs come out.

Expect it to get serious when ICE facility construction contracts include on site crematoria.

Even MTG has invested in Palantir - jailing is big business and our corrupt Congress is all in; many have invested
