The hidden ICE blueprint that should horrify every American | Will Bunch
An internal Department of Homeland Security document shows how ICE plans to cram thousands of detained human beings inside a Georgia warehouse.
What's more shocking than ICE's plan to cram as many 8,500 humans into massive, soul-crushing warehouses?
Seeing the actual DHS floor plan that echoes slavery ships and history's worst gulags with no rec space but a gun range for guards

MIT report: 95% of generative AI pilots at companies are failing
Thereβs a stark difference in success rates between companies that purchase AI tools from vendors and those that build them internally.
MITβs NANDA initiative found that 95% of generative AI deployments fail after interviewing 150 execs, surveying 350 workers, and analyzing 300 projects. The real βproductivity gainsβ seem to come from layoffs and squeezing more work from fewer people not AI.

Ofelia Torres, Teen With Cancer Who Fought For Father's Freedom From ICE, Has Died
Torres, 16, died Friday. Her father was arrested in October, the day after she returned from more than a month at the hospital for cancer treatments. She shared her family's plight, and her was father...
This young girl was battling stage 4 cancer when ICE agents took her Dad.
Ofelia leveraged social media to fight for her Dadβs release.
To call out the cruelty of ICE.
She won.
A judge ordered him released on compassionate grounds & they spent her last monthβs together.
