Question for Mike Flood: With $450 million being allocated to Alligator Alcatraz, and ICE burning through $8.4 million a day to illegally detain people—How much does it cost for fascism? How much do the tax payers have to pay for a fascist country?

Remember: Almost all of us are the descendants of immigrants who fled persecution, or were brought to America under duress, or sought better lives for themselves and their descendants.
Politicians who stoke fear and hatred over immigration want you to forget this.
Do not.

Detainees at Florida’s “Alligator Alcatraz” are on a hunger strike over what they call inhumane, dangerous conditions.
Some haven’t eaten in 10 days. One of them, Pedro Hernández, was hospitalized and still refuses food until they are treated with dignity.

Reminder that as a corporate lobbyist, Pam Bondi represented scores of clients facing federal regulatory scrutiny — including Amazon, Uber, and GM.
She also represented the government of Qatar and ICE contractor GEO Group.
"Conflicts of interest" is an understatement.

Black women are the most educated demographic in America.
More degrees per capita than any other group, including white men and white women.
And still, they’re among the most underpaid.
More educated, less paid. Overqualified, underestimated, and undervalued. Every time.

Just awful: A 75-year-old man just died in ICE custody, ICE has revealed in a notice to Congress.
But here's the rub: This man, a Cuban national, was first paroled into the US in 1966—nearly 60 years ago! They were set to deport him anyway.

Why Did a 75-Year-Old Man in Poor Health Just Die in ICE Custody?
Isidro Perez came to the United States from Cuba nearly 60 years ago. This is who Stephen Miller is going after now?

“Forget about intelligence” is a pretty good mantra for this administration
Host: Are you saying the US did not see intelligence that the Supreme Leader had ordered weaponization?
Rubio: That’s irrelevant
Host: No, that's a key point

He just dropped $280,000,000 worth of artillery in a war that’s not ours, but our grandparents have to live on Ramen noodles because America can’t afford Meals on Wheels anymore.

CNN’s Jason Carroll was zip-tied and escorted away—for reporting the news. But they claimed he wasn’t under arrest?
Why are they shooting rubber bullets at and silencing journalists? We still have a First Amendment.

I think we’ve reached a boiling point when it comes to ICE.
Today in Minneapolis, a militarized task force raided the beloved Lake Street taqueria, Las Cuatro Milpas—and the community was not having it.
Agents from ICE, the DEA, FBI, ATF, IRS and HHS rolled up looking like they were ready for war.
