Rep. Delia Ramirez to DHS officials: "I have as much respect for you as I do for the last white men who put on masks to terrorize communities of color. I have no respect for the inheritors of the Klanhood and the slave patrol. Those activities were criminal and so are yours."

Always a great sign for how things are going in your country when 21-year-olds are like “hey, I innovated a system to play bagpipes in tear gas”
Jack Duffy attaches a respirator to his bagpipes to play through tear gas. “I always play it whenever the police retreat because it's like, ‘You fucking ran while we stayed,’” he says.

Give a man a fish, and he’ll eat for a day. Teach a man to fish, and he’ll eat forever. Steal a fish from one man, give it to another, and tell the second man that he needs to pay you a subscription fee every month if he wants to keep getting fish, then you’ve successfully disrupted the fish market.

The proposed centers are so large that some could house as many as 8,000 detainees at once, according to a DHS spreadsheet of more than 20 potential locations that was verified by NBC News. The largest federal prison in the U.S., for example, has roughly 4,000 inmates.
ICE plans to build mega warehouses for immigration detention spark growing concern
Sources at two government contractors told NBC News they were worried that new warehouses — and the large numbers of immigrants who would be housed in them — would present safety problems.

This is criminal negligence. He shouldn't just be removed from leadership, he should be removed from office.
Our DHS reform demands are exceedingly reasonable.
We're asking ICE to do nothing more than follow the standards that the vast majority of law enforcement agencies already follow.
Republicans, the ball is in your court. The clock is ticking.

Have you never considered that having a disability can be & is often a massive hurdle to gainful employment?
Have you considered that disability is sprawling, diverse & comes for us all?
That even from a self-preservation standpoint you should advocate for disability justice?

It formed the basis for the later Hague and Geneva Conventions.
