    A government lawyer conceded in court that those detained by ICE at the facility did not have access to certain services, including sleeping mats, in-person legal visits, medication and more than two meals per day.

    The fuck

    “Services”?

      If you’re surprised, it just means you’re ignorant of how US prisons “work”

      It should be better for everyone, but it’s not.

        It’s not likely to change either. Slavery is still constitutional as long as your slaves are prison inmates. Read that amendment again if you doubt. This country’s politics requires an underclass to scapegoat for its troubles. Always has always will.

          I’m pretty sure everyone knows about the 14th amendment…

          Like, it’s not an obscure trivia question, just from rap lyrics people know about it, it’s not a secret

    Good. Let’s hope that federal domestic terrorists continue to have domestic terrorist threats thrust upon them. Make them terrified to go to work. Make them terrified to do their job. Make them terrified to be such shitty people. They deserve it. This crap needs to end so we don’t descend into another dark age.

    I bet several officers collapsed on the floor just being in the vicinity of something that could possibly be fentanyl.
