The current person in charge of ICE's procurement for detention is a GEO Group executive who ran the company's immigration detention portfolio. He was granted an "ethics waiver" from DHS allowing him to hand out contracts to GEO in his new role.

Ask yourself: why would this administration want to delete references to Medgar Evers’ racist assassin being a racist? Why might that be?

This looks like a dairy or a pig farm, not a place you would expect to see humans housed.
A reminder this happened earlier this week at Trump’s massive concentration camp in El Paso:
“The cases of tuberculosis and COVID-19, two diseases that spread through the air, have underscored concern about the conditions at Camp East Montana and other immigration detention centers.“

She must immediately be sent back to the maximum security prison where she belongs.

A new proposal from the Trump administration would take away one of the main safeguards federal employees have when they are fired. It would strip an independent review board of its power to hear appeals from terminated workers and block those employees from taking their cases to court.
