Here he’s responding to someone who pointed out that very few people detained by ICE have a criminal record.

Today, after months of requests, I toured the Broadview ICE Processing Facility. I want to share what I saw.
The facility has no food vendor, no medical care, and detainees have to use toilets in the middle of shared cells. These are in no way suitable conditions to be holding anyone — period.

Times have been tough in this Afghani town ever since the woke mob shut down the old poppy seed factory. So when Vladimir Putin promised to pay everyone to create MAGA Twitter accounts, they finally had something to cheer about again. Then Twitter turned on its new public location feature.

We know it's not about the money, though, white?
To recap:
•Universal healthcare would save 68,000 lives & $450B annually
•Every $1 spent on SNAP results in $1.80 boost to local economies & small businesses
•The child tax credit decreased child poverty to a historic low of 5.2%, abolishing it increased it by 45%
