I think this is a really great time to repeatedly talk about how much this shit costs the taxpayer because I am getting all of my tax documents in the mail this week and I can't believe they expect me to pay taxes for this shit!!!!
I think what a lot of folks miss is how profitable deportation is for the corporations involved & the politicians they're backing.
Holding people, physically removing them, is cost for the taxpayer & profit into the pockets of the worst people you can imagine.

These men genuinely do not see difference between a Venezuelan drug gangster, a Nicaraguan carpenter, and an Ecuadorian diplomatic attaché, it’s all just Mexican Cartel Illegals to them

I spent the evening outside the Whipple federal building in Minneapolis, where the feds have been releasing people they detained — often for no discernible reason — into the freezing cold... wearing whatever little clothing they had on at the time they were taken.

Bezos spent $40 million on this, of which $28 million was a direct gift to the Trunp family, plus another $35 million marketing blitz for a propaganda clunker absolutely nobody could have believed would recoup even a small fraction of that cost. It is a flat bribe, right out in public.

I'm just going to keep saying this until I die:
In a white supremacist patriarchy, you have value only insofar as you serve the white supremacist patriarchy.
Kyle Rittenhouse & Ashli Babbitt did. Renee Good & Alex Pretti didn't. On Jan 6, the insurrectionists did. The cops didn't.
Rinse, repeat.

The people who spent years defending and even lionizing Kyle Rittenhouse and Ashli Babbitt now want us to believe that an unarmed mother in her car and a disarmed nurse were domestic terrorists who deserved to be murdered by law enforcement.

Look, if you had a party scheduled at your house, and the pipes broke and the floor was covered in raw sewage, you’d tell your friends not to come over.

to me, the simplest argument against body cams as reform is that they executed a poet and a nurse in the streets while being aware they were on camera from multiple angles. and in the case of renee good, the shooter even filmed it himself.

![“I feel a little bit uncomfortable with the propaganda element of this,” one crew member shared, “but Brett Ratner was the worst part of working on this project.”
“He did actually chew a piece of gum and throw it in a coffee cup on my cart,” a staff member told Rolling Stone, [but] “didn’t acknowledge my existence for even one nanosecond.”
Another member recalled a day when Ratner feasted on his own meal in a set space where food was not allowed, on a day when no one else on the crew got a break to eat.
“Brett, unknowingly or maliciously, got his own food, went up there, was just eating it and just licking his fingers in grubbiest way possible, either being a dick or [having] no awareness whatsoever to the fact that everybody else is working and no one’s eating,” a staffer said.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:hnrk2g7zc4goy2ogbdkcf3k5/bafkreidreuwc5ulbdhzr6wfq4rc7eigefa27py7yaxnqpf4d3oe4oij354@jpeg)
