"Of the nearly 750 immigrant women being held there in August, according to U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement data – 97% had no criminal record."

Great ROI on bribes and campaign donations.

"Immigration detention is civil, not criminal, and is not supposed to be punishing. ICE states so clearly on its detention management website: "Detention is non-punitive.""

ICE says it provides 'proper meals.' Detainees see crystalized jelly, rancid beans and iced bologna

In the business of immigration detention, researchers say 'bad food is the business model.'

Good evening. We estimate that between 4.2 and 7.6 million people turned out for the No Kings Day demonstrations held around the country on Saturday. This makes Oct 18 very likely the biggest single-day U.S. protest event since 1970. www.gelliottmorris.com/p/second-no-...

Second "No Kings Day" protests likely the largest single-day political demonstration since 1970, with 4.2-7.6 million participants

Here are the initial results from our crowdsourced crowd-counting estimates

Hungary has many ports on the Danube. Hell, the capital is bisected by that river. Petroleum products are able to be shipped by barges. #IDIOT

Trump is now giving $40 billion in aide to Argentina. A reminder, USAID was cut completely from the federal budget and the department was shut down by DOGE, and as a result hundreds of thousands of people around the world have died. The total budget for USAID was $35 billion.

His attention span is so short. Bribes are probably starting to bore him. A loan with a small kickback scheme could be something fresh. (Conspiracies are cool)

So Nazis. They want to give refugee status to Nazis.

OK, maybe not JUST Nazis. Also certain other white people who hate non-white immigration. But Nazis can definitely come.

The proposals also advise Mr. Trump to prioritize Europeans who have been “targeted for peaceful expression of views online such as opposition to mass migration or support for ‘populist’ political parties.”

That appeared to be a reference to the European far-right political party Alternative for Germany, whose leaders have trivialized the Holocaust, revived Nazi slogans and denigrated foreigners. Vice President JD Vance has criticized Germany for trying to suppress the views of the group, which is known as the AfD.

The GOP shut down the government. They’re driving up health care costs and refuse to negotiate.

Now Speaker Mike Johnson won’t swear in @adelitaforcongress.bsky.social because it would force a vote to release the Epstein files.

Swear her in, now!
