Except that these warehouses are all in the middle of nowhere. Perfect for a prison or death camp where you don't want pesky observers. Not so great for housing or community centers.

Rules to live by:

All cops are bastards.
All Republicans are racists.
All billionaires are malevolent.
All Presidents are war criminals.
All managers are evil.

Thank you for your attention to this matter.

They should start a new, better paper.

Impeaching is one thing. Convicting is another.

It's deeper than ICE. The entire Department of Homeland Security needs to be dismantled.

Mr. Obama, do you regret your own history of deportations, and of building up and militarizing I.C.E., that laid the groundwork for what we're seeing now?

😂😂

Trump regime ICE forces are mutilating unarmed civilians. Regime forces are firing kinetic impact projectiles at close range, causing severe injuries that can result in permanent disability or death. Today, they tore off part of a woman’s hand. #3E #GoodvsEvil

21 Secret ICE Programs Revealed Leaked documents detail the dizzying scope of ICE operations

🚨Border Patrol whistleblower outraged by ICE's conduct exposes over a dozen secret ICE programs in documents leaked to me:
www.kenklippenstein.com/p/21-secret-...

Senate Democrats absolutely have to shut the govt down to stop this ICE insanity in the Twin Cities. This is not sustainable & cannot be normalized. Any Democratic vote to provide money to the thugs who are brutalizing this community is a grave betrayal to the people here. Accountability can't wait.
