Apparently the state of Tennessee has been deporting foster kids to out of state facilities with no plan to return them. The ones they’re keeping in state are being housed in office buildings and jails because there’s nowhere else to put them.

Many folks didn’t see early AM email and showed up, only to be turned away when badges didn’t work. Was sent this photo of long lines at one HHS site.

Of course America will find a way to make concentration camps for-profit
Yesterday, private prison company CoreCivic announced that they will reopen a family detention center in Texas. It was previously reported a toddler detained there died due to a lack of medical care.
It will detain up to 2,400 people—including children.
