THEY ARE BUYING UP WAREHOUSES TO HOLD HUMAN BEINGS IN DETENTION INDEFINITELY.

I feel crazy at how everyone is acting like this is normal. These are concentration camps being built right before our eyes. These buildings are not meant to house human beings. People will be caged like cattle and die.

“Four of my children just evaporated,” Badran said, holding back tears. “I looked for them a million times. Not a piece was left. Where did they go?”

There are no words to adequately describe the evil here.

journalists need to stop saying “immigration enforcement” and start saying “ethnic cleansing.” DHS and ICE are forgoing immigration laws and procedures; they are abducting anyone who looks latino/hispanic. the facts are extremely clear that this is a white supremacist ethnic cleansing project.

Someone told me, "Get rid of this sick son of yours and find relief from this pain," as if he wanted me to end his life. I swear to God, I am poor and do not have the money to save his life. I am helpless; if I had the money, I wouldn't have asked for donations from anyone.🙏🏼👇🏼

Morning folks! 21 days to go and we're at 237 prelaunch followers.

I'd feel a lot less nervous if we hit 300 before launch.

Can you do me a favour and give this a signal boost, ideally tagging a geeky parent/teacher you know who might be interested?

Thanks!
