Shut it the DOWN. Fort Bliss is a site for rampant violations of basic human rights.

Shameful.

1/ This is Day 2 of me naming and shaming DHS for all the fucking prisons and WAREHOUSES they're seeking to open to generate profit from immigrant bodies. According to @projectsaltbox.bsky.social, DHS purchased a former Big Lots warehouse in Durant, Oklahoma as a site for immigration detention.

Wow. I can't believe it has been 3 years since the tragic train derailment and subsequent chemical disaster in East Palestine, OH.

The ad industry spent years saying tracking was just for "better products." They lied. It was always surveillance infrastructure. Now, DHS is using it to target immigrants for incarceration and deportation. If Meta and X can track you, so can CBP and ICE. We do not have to accept this.

1/ This is Day 1 of me naming and shaming DHS for all the fucking prisons and WAREHOUSES they're seeking to open to profit off of immigrant bodies. Let's start with the Rivers Correctional Facility in Winton, NC. Per @projectsaltbox.bsky.social, Rivers is now pending reopening and has 1450 beds.

guys I’m literally ten days into Lent, and this is the SECOND person on the list who appears to have died after experiencing seizures in ICE custody when they’d never had seizures before so many cases where ICE never releases an official cause of death. what tf is happening behind closed doors

Which phase in late-stage racial capitalism is this?

I am pro Iranian people. I stand with them against their own government’s repression AND against the imperial violence in the form of bombs dropped from the sky from Israel & the US who have already killed hundreds. I support neither imperialism or dictatorship. Sahar Delijani said it best:

DHS and CoreCivic's inhumanity seemingly has no limits.

DHS wants to incarcerate 1500 human beings in a WAREHOUSE in a town where the population is about 2000 people. It's gross.

Radiohead is demanding that the Trump administration take down a pro-ICE promotional video featuring a version of its song “Let Down” without permission. Full statement from the band:

I cannot stress this enough: if we do not learn this lesson, we are bound to eventually end up in the same place w/r/t immigration politics EVEN IF the Dems take executive power.

"...when she was around 13 years old, Epstein introduced her to Trump, 'who subsequently forced her head down to his exposed penis which she subsequently bit...Trump punched her in the head and kicked her out.'" Fair to say that the State of the Union is bleak. www.npr.org/2026/02/24/n...

NEW from me for @immcouncil.org’s blog: ICE is buying up warehouses around the country. I summarize ICE’s “Detention Reengineering Initiative,” laying out what we know about the Trump admin’s main plan to use the $45 billion they have for detention. www.americanimmigrationcouncil.org/blog/ice-buy...

This really sums it up.

Can't really say I'm surprised.

The underlying decision is HUGE. Judge Sykes vacated under the APA "Matter of Yajure-Hurtado," the decision from the Board of Immigration Appeals that had blessed the Trump admin's new interpretation of a 1996 law to deny the right to seek bond to huge swathes of people it takes into custody.

Someone has sure already made this observation but the fact they can convert all those empty warehouses into prison camps means they could have converted them into housing, community centers, job training centers or, hell, libraries or schools all along. It’s always a matter of will not resources.

In case it needs to be said: a spike in habeas petitions is NOT a good development. It means the U.S. is incarcerating more immigrants than ever and further violating the Constitution. Habeas petitions are the last line of defense against outright executive expulsions.

Yep. And if you’d like to further follow the money and are wondering who benefits from all of this, check out @nipnlg.bsky.social’s recent report: Profiting Off Pain: Privatized Detention, Mass Surveillance and the Drive for Immigrant Prosecutions nipnlg.org/work/resourc...

For further reading on the skeet below, see Amia Srinivasan’s The Right to Sex: Feminism in the Twenty-First Century. Great read.

cannot believe it still needs to be said: suggesting sex workers should just fuck the misogynists is misogyny. you don’t “manage” male supremacy with sex workers’ lives and labor

😂 bear mace is crazy.

1/ On the surface, immigrant child detention centers and Epstein’s island may seem worlds apart. But the thru line is clear — the ruling class treats children as though they are simply bodies they can use, abuse, and imprison.

Tell us something we didn’t know already…. Less than 14% of people ICE arrested had violent criminal records, data shows - CBS News apple.news/AGqadKlebTZi...

THEY ARE BUYING UP WAREHOUSES TO HOLD HUMAN BEINGS IN DETENTION INDEFINITELY. I feel crazy at how everyone is acting like this is normal. These are concentration camps being built right before our eyes. These buildings are not meant to house human beings. People will be caged like cattle and die.

Calls to Abolish ICE continue to rise in popularity.

NEW: ICE is leasing offices throughout the US as part of a secret, months-long expansion campaign. WIRED is publishing dozens of these locations.

That’s a W for the movement.

You know what they’re going to store in those warehouses? People

I’ve often thought, every parent should be livid at how the U.S. government treats children. And yet, here we are. U.S. citizen parents, are you OK with your tax dollars funding baby jails?

1/ ProPublica collected handwritten letters in mid-January from children held at the Dilley Immigration Processing Center, the same facility where 5-year-old Liam Conejo Ramos was taken. Hundreds of kids are still detained. We’ll let the children’s words speak for themselves. 🧵

My aunt and uncle went without power for 2.5 months after Maria. My grandfather who lives in San Juan went even longer. The power lines were the most impactful image of many tonight.

When the Patriots lose, Robert Kraft loses. And that’s a W in my book.

Keep seeing the misinformation that this was Liam on here--has been reported that it was not

I'm happy this man who bet his lifesavings of 33K on the Seahawks is gonna be OK. brobible.com/culture/arti...

Puerto Rico hasn't had reliable power in a decade. The grid sends occasional surges through the wires that fry appliances. Electricity rates are among the highest in the entire U.S. Heat waves are getting intense in the summer, and outages mean A/C is no guarantee for an aging population.

I will eventually shut up about this but Bad Bunny’s use of the power lines is an outstanding example of how to communicate about climate and energy issues. Not about who is the smartest nerd in the room and spewing numbers but about people’s actual lives. Genius.

Strange what some folks understand as political. This was absolutely an explicitly political performance.

I am not seeing any reputable news article stating that was Liam Ramos at the Super Bowl but verified accounts with hundreds of thousands of people are spreading the rumor. Come on people.

Was anyone else impressed by Bad Bunny's football spike?

My takeaways from Bad Bunny nobody asked for 1. the inclusion of afro-Latinidad 2. the use of kids AS kids. they weren't doing much but vibing (said positively). 3. I think there are a lot of easter eggs that require repeat viewing 4. everyone looked like they were having so much fun

You guys, these are clearly two different boys and that was not Liam Ramos. Stop spreading misinformation. Anyway, incredible halftime show from Bad Bunny.

A desperate plea sent to me by a Minneapolis resident who's been on the front lines since the beginning of the ICE occupation:

AWFUL news tonight. This blesses the “mandatory” detention in the 5th Circuit without bond (and little chance at habeas) of every undocumented immigrant who originally entered across the border, no matter how many decades in the past. It will fuel ICE’s push to transfer people to Texas immediately.

A simple proposal for federal judges frustrated that Trump Regime isn’t freeing people in response to habeas corpus orders: Order that DHS bring each individual to court for their habeas hearing. If the judge grants habeas, the petitioner walks out free. Bonus: huge pre-hearing burden on feds.
