As many of us can attest to that we no longer recognize what this nation has become. Am beyond disgusted, angry of all of this. Our tax money is going for this and so much more that is absolutely disgusting into a wood chipper of vileness.

The first step is voting in November and make this a Blue Wave never seen before. It’s just the beginning…

I feel ill every time I read about ICE detention expansion. Are we going to survive another 2+ years of this insanity? S. Miller should be the one in permanent detention!!

If the goal was to deport, additional detention centers wouldn’t be necessary. Clearly, the end goal is to detain.

Yes, but I think the true goal is to put mega buck$ into the hands of trump crony/supporters, and he is getting kickbacks from it all. I assume this, because no effort at all has been made to limit costs. Those warehouses they are now selling off were purchased (with your tax $$$) for anywhere from 2-16 TIMES the appraised value. Who does that?

Where did ICE come up with 7.5 billion $ to expand detection? Boycott the states that are doing this. I live in New Mexico, so I have two to choose from. Boycott Texas. Boycott Arizona.

Congress, unfortunately. The so-called One Big Beautiful Bill act injected $38 billion into ICE’s budget to expand its detention capacity.

These state goveners need to get creative and sign legislation making it impossible to pass building inspections so that no one can ever be placed in there. Step the fuck up, goveners!

I am wondering why Grossman and his company Rise is not being prosecuted for more than bankruptcies? Has our attorney general or even the FBI (because it seems he has businesses in many states) and other law enforcement and Massachusetts legislators on this. I’m sure any/many of these get tied up in the courts.

PLEASE FORWARD TO ALL YOUR LOCAL/STATE/FED ELECTEDS-& WE NEED A MAJOR PUSH OF THE PEOPLE TO STOP THIS!

IF THE PLAN IS TO DEPORT ALL THESE PEOPLE-AND WE KNOW THEY ARE NOT WAITING FOR DUE PROCESS-

WHY THE HELL DO THEY NEED ALL THIS DETENTION SPACE-FOR US!

This is just how it has started in all Authoritarian (&Colonizing) Regimes.

If you have not read 🌟🌟One Long Night-A Global History Of Concentration Camps by Andrea Pitzer🌟🌟. DO SO NOW! 🚨ONCE THEY OPEN THEY WILL NOT BE CLOSED UNTIL THE REGIME FALLS❗

They have tried to lull us into complacency-we cannot let them!

& Thank PSB for their diligence in keeping the public informed-& Out of the Shadows

This is our tax money being spent and I for one am not happy about it.

ICE agents are Nazi thugs.

ICE agents are violent criminals.

Cheers to anyone and everyone who resists these violent Nazi thugs.

Whoever doesn’t like that terminology can take their “Godwin!” and shove it.

I read that you should never pour bags of sugar into concrete meant for prisons because it can keep it from hardening

VOTE Blue so Democrats can repeal the Big Ugly Bill that funds ICE by taking away Medicaid and cutting Medicare plus raising prices on part D medications.

It is criminal the money we waste on inhumane incarceration and treatment.

Does anyone not believe they aren’t building concentration camps?

What is the status of the warehouse in the Town of Newburgh, NY, which was leased by DHS on a long term basis? Is any conversion of that warehouse likely not to occur in light of this change in policy?
