Read this thread. This is what @katmabu.bsky.social was protesting, and why she repeatedly says getting beaten up by ICE outside is nothing compared to the torture and crimes being committed inside Broadview. These thugs must be held to account.
A family friend was telling us about what her husband shared about his experience in Broadview before he was deported back to Mexico. She's been sharing to friends and family because she's just in disbelief & horror what her husband told her. She wasn't able to talk to him until he was in Mexico.

Listeria kills.

Too bad Mike Johnson hasn't watched the news. He doesn't know about the elections that happened yesterday so he doesn't have an opinion about them. He's focused on doing his job for the American People.

Hi, from fucking Texas.
Our state took over the Houston schools and installed an "expert" who replaced school libraries with detention centers and funneled money to one of his businesses in another state.
