The largest increase this year in ICE detainees is at the Dilley Immigration Processing Center, a "Family Residential Center" operated by for-profit private-prison company CoreCivic, where there is also a measles outbreak.
Here's a table and map for exploring the changes in the latest data release.

Democrats need to read the room.
Donald Trump won this district in Louisiana by 13 points in 2024.
The Democrat just crushed a Republican extremist in this district by 24 points.
Folks, that’s a 37 point swing to the left. We can compete everywhere and win anywhere. Let’s keep this up!

It starts with the fact that the Kremlin was allowed to designate Trump's interlocutors, and it picked Steve Witkoff, a man whose entire business empire consists of laundering money for Kremlin-loyal oligarchs. What do you expect?
