Oh, so they're building "camps" to "concentrate" people in! Remind you of anything?
Rather than shuttling detainees around the country to wherever detention space is available, ICE aims to speed up deportations by renovating industrial warehouses to hold more than 80,000 immigrant detainees at a time, according to a draft solicitation. https://wapo.st/4aqyir8

NEW COLUMN: This week, Algoma Steel announced they were laying off a thousand workers, after Carney and Ford gave them a $500 million loan fuelled by those same workers tax dollars. With that kind of theft, they should be called Algoma Steal. www.jakelandau.ca/p/algoma-ste...

Reading between the lines here, I think Ukraine might be socializing this idea because they could start drafting women at some point in the future. To be honest, women should have been included in the draft from the beginning, it's absurd to exclude 50% from defence. www.npr.org/2025/11/11/n...
'No turning back': More and more Ukrainian women join the army to fight Russia
An increasing number of women are joining the Ukrainian military, with thousands serving in front-line roles, as Russia's war on Ukraine nears its fourth year — with no peace in sight.
