America is starving Cuba

I don't know if people will feel like it's exactly how it should end or hate it, but you just gotta roll the dice sometimes.

I think at this particular moment, Hinduism or Judaism would also work. Let's get some hat trick syncretism going.

She Was Honored With A Human Rights Award. Then She Says ICE Tricked And Arrested Her. A HuffPost investigation found how the Trump administration systematically destroyed safeguards for detainees, subjecting them to abuse and neglect.

I feel so sick reading this. She dedicated her life to helping her immigrant trans siblings, finally got the medical care she sought her whole life, and then a year later ICE tricked her, kidnapped her and used her postoperative status as a weapon to destroy her health.

CW for basically everything

Trump Using A ‘Softer Touch’ With ICE In Minnesota? Residents Say Don’t Be Fooled. Two weeks after Alex Pretti’s killing, federal agents have shown no signs of backing down. The resistance definitely hasn't.

NEW: The Trump admin certainly put on a show last week about changing tactics in Minnesota after ICE agents killed Alex Pretti, a 37-year-old VA nurse.

Trump even suggested it's time for "a softer touch."

Except residents say nothing has changed. At all. www.huffpost.com/entry/ice-mi...

Concentration camps:

“For 280 days we haven’t eaten a single piece of fruit, banana, apple, orange, or anything fresh. We are all in one big room with no doors or windows. We can’t see any grass or trees. We are all constantly sick."

NEW: Leqaa Kordia — who’s been in ICE detention for nearly a year, since ICE took her the same week as Mahmoud Khalil — has been hospitalized after having a seizure.

Her whereabouts & health are now unknown.

The Trump admin alleges she supports Hamas because…she sent money to help family in Gaza.

The patrolling and enforcement part of border "security" has always been a con. The physical border has never been secured, to actually do that requires a vast paramilitary force that'll cause more problems than its worth. The predecessors were tiny compared to DHS and, hey, civilization didn't end.

They've always been an atrocity.

US moves to deport 5-year-old detained in Minnesota The U.S. Department of Homeland Security said on Friday it is seeking to deport a 5-year-old Ecuadorean boy who was detained in Minnesota last month.

Millstones. Necks.

Blackadder Goes Forth, but it's Jeeves and Wooster at El-Alamein.

ICE, CBP, and DHS in general have never not been manufacturers of suffering, and INS had serious problems before them. But even this article accepts the premise of the border being overrun, despite CBP being so directly linked to so much harm. (1/2)

Accountability for ICE and CBP However bad you think the corruption and misconduct at ICE and CBP is — the reality is far far worse.

"For much of the 2010s and likely before and since, it appears the crime rate of CBP agents and offices was higher PER CAPITA than the crime rate of undocumented immigrants in the United States."

While I'm cautious to announce too many projects at once, there is one more in the works. Remember those weird gender politics post-apocalyptic stories from the 70s-90s? Well, it's something of a response to the essentialism of those. We're getting weird with it.

Unaccountable money being a vector for social corrosion was always a problem with crypto, regardless of the specifics. Unaccountable is a much better word for what shady tech adopters and peddlers wanted out of it than anything softer like untraceable.

Thankfully, where we live, there's been more of a move to start simple and increase. Part of that, from what we understand, was that it was a huge pain to untangle causes of health problems with so many variables, especially by non-psych providers who had to negotiate over prescription changes.

Nothing ruins the contractor between patient and physician like a doctor causally whoopsie-daisying over confusing delirium from psychosis with the effects of severe dehydration and lethally high blood pressure because they didn't think out their combo properly.

It's something kind of touched on in the article, but there's a story all its own about how improper treatment in medication and hospitalization is a real counterproductive force in psychiatric care. Psychosis looks intractable when you get a med cocktail that's messing with their head all by itself

Important to realize that the mentioned rapid expansion was mirrored but demand for more boots on the ground in Iraq and Afghanistan, which means you had clods of unusual density tasked with the delicate work of counter-insurgency once we half-learned counter-terrorism wasn't enough.

This has always been a great failure in discussing border enforcement. How much worse does the cure have to be than the disease before people ask "is the disease even real?" Apparently, only when the treatment is forced on them without bothering to invent a plausible reason why.

Someone sent me an article that addresses some pre-existing CPB issues, including loosening the standards of corruption during the Obama years because they had too many complaints, daily abuse allegations, and killing citizens of Mexico firing across the border.

I don't think it can be ruled out that part of Epstein's connectedness was that he became some kind of perverse Chauncy Gardiner, a blockhead confused for an interesting person by people impressed by his sheer lack of inhibition.

They're calling it the Through the Looking Glass readings of the constitution. We've got eight guys from Georgetown and and a dozen op-ed writers ready to tell you it's exactly what the founding fathers envisioned. It's already very popular with lawyers that dress like Benjamin Franklin.
