Think this might be a little bit too intellectual and theory dense for Alex Hern of The Economist, but the format's good, he'll like the bright colours, he's got his bib on and a nice bowl of porridge at the re-education camp and is sat next to some Financial Times fellas, so here we go

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.

It’s crazy to think about the crimes we’re going to learn about after this regime ends.
We’re already hearing about Watergate level crimes every week. Imagine what will come out after it’s over.
We’re going to need a full accounting of all that’s been done in violation of the constitution.
