A great follow to stay informed about the development of concentration camps

🚨ICE just got access to one of its biggest private detention center operators last night, thanks to a Navy contract.

The move lets ICE bypass normal contracting processes to tap GEO Group to operate its detention centers as they race to buy detention sites to house 92,000 detainees nationwide.

Thanks to documents released by N.H. Gov Ayotte and reported by Boston Globe, we get a better understanding of how ICE is planning on scaling its detention centers using its new warehouses.

We also caught a bit of interesting coordination between USCIS and ICE in the metadata >>>

@maddow.bsky.social had a great segment on the camps tonight, highlighting Project Saltbox.

As Maddow stated, NOW is the time that we need large powerful law firms to stand up. 2026 - it is time, now.

Sen. Gallego: So somebody who probably has never handled a weapon, after 42 days, is going to be inserted into a high-stress environment?

ICE Chief Lyons: Yes

Sen. Gallego: Explains a lot.

Electricity, the automobile, radio, TV, computers, the internet—all changed the way we live.

But they pale in comparison to the revolution AI will bring about.

The question is: who benefits? It must work for working families, not just billionaires.

According to multiple NYT sources, it wasn’t even military personnel at Fort Bliss that fired an anti-drone laser at alleged cartel drones. It was CBP who used the weapon on loan from DoD against a child’s party balloon they mistook for a drone. The Pentagon gave CBP an anti-aircraft weapon.

The numbers speak for themselves
A stunning detail the ICE chief shared in this hearing that was supposed to be a brag, except it isn't: ICE has arrested 379,000 people between Jan. 2025-Jan. 2026 -- but only 8,700 were suspected gang members or known suspected terrorists.

That's 2%! www.huffpost.com/entry/latest...

The SAVE act is bad.
Why aren’t more people warning about the GOP’s SAVE Act, including its requirement that states launch new voter purge programs??? History shows that Rs “love* over-broad purges. Tellingly, SAVE proposes *no penalty* for faulty purges but potential *prison time* 4 a single faulty voter registration.

The SAVE Act would require every American citizen to show a passport or birth certificate and government ID to vote.

146 MILLION Americans do not have a passport.

69 MILLION women do not have a valid birth certificate due to surname changes.

The SAVE Act is an anti-voter bill.

By the way, for those of you not in MN: Homan’s strategy was to withdraw some agents, so it felt like we were in the denouement of the crisis, and then escalate hard against observers. They’re being incredibly aggressive with observers now. National media may not want to check out just yet

I love Professor Freeman. Each time, almost nightly, she shares something she's been pondering that day & it always circles back to community. Highly recommend!

In this one she talked about how everyday people & actions changed history during the American Revolution, not big guys & big moments.

Organized action averted ethnic cleansing in Ohio for now. But DHS hasn't been idle, turning attention to voting. This is all connected: Trump tells lies about immigrants voting; this becomes an excuse to make it harder for citizens to vote; DHS is central to both
